Hello
I have noticed that the Big Finish audio story called The World Tree also featured the fifteenth doctor. This made me wonder where you would put it on the timeline.
Hope you have a nice day

Hi Tim,
In the Doctor Who Annual 2024 there is a short story called ‘First Day of the Doctor’ It’s basically a selection of diaries written by the doctor during the Seventh Incarnation, The Tenth Incarnation, The Twelfth Incarnation, The Thirteenth Incarnation and The Fifteenth Incarnation.
I just thought I would let you know in case you wanted to add that short story to your timelines.
Kind Regards
Lloyd

Hi MoonlightVT,
Thanks for dropping a line. Usually, I’d wait for a story or a season to be complete and sometimes I wait a while for more information to be available in terms of a story’s placement in a certain Doctor’s timeline. Since Eyespider has ‘Mancopolis’ on their version of the Fifteenth Doctor’s timeline, I’ve added the story to both the Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby’s timelines on ‘Bradley’s Basement’.
Many thanks,
Tim 🙂

I know it’s only a tiny little segment that could be argued whether it’s canon or not but have you thought about adding the segment from a recent episode of “Match of the Day” where the Doctor appears in a futuristic set with the two presenters?

Hi Thomas,
Yes, ‘Scream’ is the 2024 Free Comic Book Day story featuring the Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby, according to Eyespider. Not sure if it’s linked to ‘Everyone Must Go!’ as that story hasn’t finished yet and there’s not any information on TARDIS wiki to back it up yet (no page for ‘Everyone Must Go!’ at present 😐 ).
Thanks,
Tim 🙂

Hiii, I love this so much, with the short story prequel to The Story And The Engine: what i did on my holidays by omo esosa. i personally have put that after the giggle, cause there is no mention of any companions and he isnt in the sadness from losing ruby sunday i feel so i assume that it is before he met her. also in the story and the engine it is implied that he has been going to the barber shop for a long time so it must be one of the earlier adventures 🙂
