The Third Universe is one of the names given to the native universe of [[the Doctor]] in the ''[[w:c:tardis:Doctor Who|Doctor Who]]'' franchise and its spin-offs (which had significant influence on the creation of "the Shifter"). Additionally, a number of other works of fiction have been shown to depict real events in this universe, including some anterior to ''Doctor Who''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s 1963 debut, such as H.G. Wells's ''War of the Worlds'' or Arthur Canon Doyle's ''Sherlock Holmes'' short story. | The Third Universe is one of the names given to the native universe of [[the Doctor]] in the ''[[w:c:tardis:Doctor Who|Doctor Who]]'' franchise and its spin-offs (which had significant influence on the creation of "the Shifter").
