The Time War, more specifically called the Last Great Time War, is a conflict within the fictional universe of the British science fiction television series ''Doctor Who''. The war occurs between the events of the 1996 film and the 2005 revived series, with the Time Lords fighting the Daleks until the apparent mutual destruction of both races.
