    Ok, gotta ask…does this include the Classic series too or just the new one?

    No Picture? Only Data?

    You might want to update that Guardian article… you say “feel free to comment below if you spot any errors”, but comments are now closed (and even before they weren’t, attempting to respond resulted in an error message.)

    This looks like fun, and I’d like to help with the project (there were several errors I spotted just from a casual perusal) but I don’t know how. :) so.. is this where errors should be reported, or should I use your gmail address, or something better? :)

    I can’t help but notice the data is missing the time travels that Dr. Who will make in the TV show’s future…

    Looking at the Dr. Who timeline makes me think about Inception. As long as we are doing a timeline representing Dr. Who, can someone do a dreamline graphically representing the dream levels in Inception and time elapsed? I have seen some on the web but I don’t think they go deeply enough into the intricacy of the dream levels in the story, plus the sizeable time distortions going into deeper dream levels needs to be accurately and proportionately represented graphically. So far the visualizations I’ve seen are pretty, but don’t neatly and visually show the time and reality shifts of the movie. I am a bit of a sculptor, but have no skills at 2-d graphic design, otherwise I would do this myself! Hoping someone on this page is willing to try tho.
