Bannerman Road — the home of Luke and Sarah Jane Smith, the Xylok Mr Smith and K9 Mark IV, as well as the families of Maria Jackson and Rani Chandra — was in Ealing. The families of Kelsey Hooper and Clyde Langer also lived in Ealing. (SJA: Invasion of the Bane, Revenge of the Slitheen, The Day of the Clown) A local newspaper was the Ealing Echo. (SJA: Revenge of the Slitheen) The Doctor visited the area and encountered Sarah Jane and her friends on at least two occasions during his tenth incarnation (SJA: The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith, DW: The End of Time), and at least once during his eleventh. (SJA: Death of the Doctor)

Throughout the late 2000s and early 2010s, there was a large amount of alien activity centred on the Ealing area. (SJA: Invasion of the Bane, Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane?, The Lost Boy, The Day of the Clown, The Nightmare Man, The Vault of Secrets) The amount of strange and alien occurrences around the area led to it being dubbed "The Ealing Triangle". (SJA: Goodbye, Sarah Jane Smith)
