The eleventh Doctor, Amy and Rory took Mark Whitaker, age 46, through time to have a final conversation with his late wife, Rebecca Coles, when she was a young woman.

The Doctor and his friends took Mark back to 2011, but only after the Doctor spilled red wine on the contemporary Mark’s T-Shirt - causing him and Rebecca to meet for the first time.

In an alternative timestream, the Silurian plague released at Wenley Moor in the early nineteen-seventies wiped out most of humanity. The third Doctor was killed before he could discover the antidote.

Dinosaur species from many different eras were reintroduced to the wild. The capital of Earth became Ophidian, a vast city in Africa. Some Silurians hunted down humans for sport.
This timeline was created by the Monk, and deactivated by the seventh Doctor. It would survive for a generation or so after this before winding down.

The Ini-Ma, the Cylox brothers’ jailor, killed the siblings but died in the process.

The time-creature that Honoré and Emily saved from the Cabal of the Horned Beast took up residence in the Dragon Industry Tower - an office block that proved so financially ruinous, its founder, John Raymond, killed himself. The creature sought redemption for its crimes by absorbing the timelines of abused women, but this cast the women into a noncorporeal void. Emily persuaded the creature to return the women home and absorb Raymond’s timeline, an act that erased the tower from history.

The paradox resolved itself enough that the time-creature broke free, and left for parts unknown.

c 1995 - Downtime
 [759]

Under the direction of the Great Intelligence, which was secretly hosted in Professor Travers, Victoria Waterfield had invested an eight-figure sum in the New World University in north-west London. The University specialised in teaching classes by computer, but the Intelligence used a hypnotic technique to control the students there. It inhabited the university’s computers, and spread into the Internet. There was chaos as all computer systems succumbed to - as the media termed it - the “computer flu”. The CIA’s files were broadcast on Russian television, bank cash points released all their cash and Tomahawk missiles were launched in the Gulf.

The Intelligence transformed some of the University students into Yeti, leading to a conflict with UNIT. Before the Intelligence could take control of Earth, Victoria and her allies destroyed the University’s generators, which banished the Intelligence. Professor Travers’ dead body collapsed without the Intelligence to animate it.

Victoria was put on Interpol’s Most Wanted list for her role in this affair. The Doctor provided a letter of reference to clear her name with UNIT.
