22nd century

This page chronicles stories set in the **22nd century** in the order in which they occurred. Therefore, the following timeline should not be seen as an accurate reading/listening order as some stories may have framing devices which take place later in the timeline of the species. Although technically incorrect, a century is defined in the way agreed upon by most of society and indeed *Doctor Who* writers. That is to say, starting in the year ending -00 and continuing until the year ending -99. This results in two centuries, namely the 1st centuries BCE and CE, having just 99 years.

Most BBC licensed Doctor Who content is counted on this timeline, including but not limited to the TV series itself, Big Finish Productions, BBC Books and Virgin Books material. However intentionally parodic content such as the Dr Men books, various Titan Comics backups and Doctor Whoah! should not be added to this particular chronology. Likewise fanfiction and charity publications will also be avoided.
