 From a thread in the Archives called "Thousands of...Who's Years?" from 
Oct 1992, comes the following comment ....

Quote
Funny how Gallifrey has a different "year" but has the same language 
(English).
End Quote

When The Doctor and Companions arrive on some distant Planet and can 
understand the locals, we instantly blame this on The TARDIS' 
translation circuits.

I've never thought about this also applying when The TARDIS arrives on 
Gallifrey as well!!

And this thread is actually about how does the Gallifreian year length 
compare to the Earth year length.

Do we know if 1000 Gallifreian years is equal to 1000 Earth years??
