Doom’s Day timeline order guide

24th October 2024 (ratings updated live)


Doom’s Day was a multi-media event in 2023 celebrating Doctor Who’s 60th birthday. It was much more straightforward than the previous event, Time Lord Victorious, which was criticised for being hard to follow.

Doom’s Day follows the assassin Doom as she learns that she only has 24 hours to live. The event is structured in that each hour of her last day is a new story where she gets an assignment to kill someone. This also makes it easy to skip every part that you don’t find interesting. I would say that the only mandatory parts are the first and the last part. 

The trailer for the event is below:

Notes

You don’t have to read everything to understand the event as long as you read Hours 1 and 24. Pick and choose the stories that you find interesting.

Don’t play the game Lost in Time. It is really bad. If you really want to experience these parts of the story there are other ways online.

I would say that Time Lord Victorious is more fun. If you are choosing one event I would start with that!

If you want the reading order in a spreasdsheet then you can use this link (same as for Time Lord Victorious)

If you complete and rate every story above (except for Lost in Time game – we are not mean!) you will earn a badge!
