Events[]

In the late 1930s, the Third Doctor and Jo Grant visited Paris and encountered Iris Wildthyme. Together, they went to Rue de Fleurus and partied with Gertrude Stein, Pablo Picasso, Jean Cocteau, and Alice Toklas. (PROSE: The Scarlet Empress) Iris Wildthyme and Tom met the writers Anaïs Nin, Henry Miller and June Miller on a separate visit to Paris, during which they defeated a plan by origami aliens to conquer Earth. (PROSE: Blame Iris [+]Error: Code 2 - no data stored in variables, cache or SMW.)

At some point during the decade, New York City was shrunken down and menaced by a gorilla. When he arrived at this sight, the Eleventh Doctor sought to rectify the situation before Rory Williams convinced him that such heroics could wait until they'd solved their current problem.
