In "The End of the World" (2005), the Ninth Doctor reveals that Gallifrey has been destroyed in a "war" his people lost and that he is the last of the Time Lords. In "Dalek" (2005), the Ninth Doctor further reveals that the "Last Great Time War" involved the Dalek race and the Time Lords, and that both sides were obliterated in the final battle. Executive producer Russell T Davies wrote in issue #356 of "Doctor Who Magazine" that the Time War in the series and the one in the novels are unrelated.
