- For the planet of the same name, see Mercury.
Mercury was a chemical element required for the proper functioning of the TARDIS' fluid links. The First Doctor falsely claimed that a fluid link had run out of mercury as a ruse to explore the Dalek City. (DW: The Daleks)
The Second Doctor visited the Panjistri homeworld to stock up on mercury. (NA: Timewyrm: Apocalypse)
Later, the mercury in the fluid links evaporated, forcing the Doctor and Jamie McCrimmon to evacuate the TARDIS. (DW: The Wheel in Space)
The Fourth Doctor acquired some needed mercury in 1931 Chicago, unknowingly defeating the Master's plans by doing so. (VD: The Duke of Dominoes)
On Go-Ray, the First Doctor, John and Gillian acquired mercury to repair a cardium reactor. (TVC: Enter: The Go-Ray)
The planet Vulcan had pools of fuming mercury on its surface. (DW: The Power of the Daleks)
Skaro had geysers of mercury. The Dalek Emperor attempted to kill Zeg near one of them. (TV21: Duel of the Daleks)
Mercury poisoning was a common complaint among sailors. Amy Ivans, a passenger of the Lankester, was being poisoned with small doses of mercury, administered by De Requin. (BFA: Cryptobiosis)
A cannister of mercury was used to corrode and disable a Gold Assassin who was on boards a Roman sailing vessel. (DWAM: Golden Slumbers)
