2019 was a year.

Events[]

Dated[]

This section's awfully stubby.

Please help by adding some more information.

On 1 January, the Recon Scout Incident occurred; a reconnaissance scout Dalek which had remained dormant since the 9th century was dug up by archaeologists, Lin and Mitch. It took over Lin's body and proceeded to go on a rampage before the Thirteenth Doctor stopped it by jettisoning it into a supernova. (TV: Resolution [+]Chris Chibnall, Doctor Who New Year Special 2019 (BBC One, 2019)., PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual)

During those events, the Thirteenth Doctor discovered that UNIT had been suspended due to funding disputes. (TV: Resolution [+]Chris Chibnall, Doctor Who New Year Special 2019 (BBC One, 2019).) A guide for time travellers noted this as a great place and time to pick up forbidden alien artefacts on the cheap. (PROSE: Time Traveller's Diary) Despite these funding disputes, UNIT would live on in some form into the coming decades, (PROSE: The Baron Wastes, Excalibur of Mars, Alien Bodies) and had been reformed by 2022. (TV: The Power of the Doctor [+]Chris Chibnall, Doctor Who Centenary Special 2022 (BBC One, 2022).)

On 8 March, the 32nd Galactic Heritage Convention was held. River Song attended the convention posing as Romana; after Galactic Heritage gave thanks to Gallifrey for attending, the real Romana sent Leela to the convention to investigate. River and Leela joined forces to save Juda and Hema from the Royal Magnificat, accidentally causing the Ozkozania Civil War. (AUDIO: Emancipation)

On 27 April, the year 2004 suddenly disappeared from history, leaving the people of Earth with no memory nor physical documentation of events that had occurred in that year. (PROSE: Time Lapse)

In the "middle" of the year, the Thirteenth Doctor arrived at Daniel Barton's office, using the Master's TARDIS, and planted a virus into the Silver Lady, a fail-safe which would shut the machine down once the Kasaavin invasion arrived early next year, thwarting the Spy Master's plot to destroy humanity. (TV: Spyfall)

In September, River and Leela visited Charm on Ozkozania to save Juda and Hema from the village's destruction, having seen the ruins of Charm in 2020. The village was safe from the Civil War, and its destruction was actually caused by River. (AUDIO: Emancipation)

Undated[]

Single Molecule Transcription (SMT) replaced microprocessors on Earth. (TV: The Long Game [+]Russell T Davies, Doctor Who series 1 (BBC One, 2005).)

In the famous Henley Picnic Massacre, a war party of time travelling Xlanthi were killed when Excalibur flung itself from the custody of Winifred Bambera and Ancelyn directly towards the distortion in space-time caused by their arrival. (PROSE: Excalibur of Mars)

Cod were extinct by this year. (PROSE: The Last Emperor)

Unmanned UNASA missions to Jupiter and Saturn took place in early 2019 and detected settlements on the moons of both planets. Representatives of the Perseus Corporeal met with members of the United States and GEU governments the following year. (PROSE: The Ethereal)

One version of the Ninth Doctor felt that he found the first man on Mars, circa 2019, to be one of his favourite events in history. (PROSE: Who's After Your Cash)

A Broadway production of Blythe Spirit took place. Panda remembered it as "nerve-wracking" and a "soulless evening". (PROSE: The Big Crunch)

Lloyd-Webber made a junior production of Pooh!. (PROSE: The Big Crunch)

An Antipho spaceship crashed in the Arctic. The Tenth Doctor, arriving several months later to view a solar eclipse, helped them free their craft from the ice. (COMIC: Arctic Eclipse)

The Thirteenth Doctor, Yaz, Ryan, and Graham visited Hidden Human History creator Bethany Brunwine at her home, after the Doctor correctly guessed that she was in fact a Stilean flesh eater, and that Team TARDIS' earlier encounters with her were what inspired her to create her podcast series. (COMIC: Hidden Human History)
