History Of The Time Lords
The Time Lords are a race of humanoids originating on the planet Gallifrey, seen in the British science fiction television series Doctor Who. Time Lords are so called because they are able to travel in and manipulate time through prolonged exposure to the time vortex.
Details of the history of the Time Lords in the television series are sketchy and as is usual for Doctor Who continuity, fraught with supposition and contradiction. This history covers the various versions given on screen and in the spin-off media based on the television series. The canonicity of the spin-off media in relation to the television series, and each other, is open to interpretation.
