New South Wales

New South Wales was a state in Australia that both Simon Griffiths and Nate Simms called home. Cities or towns in the state included Sydney and its suburbs Parramatta and Glebe, along with Castle Hill. At least part of its southern border with Victoria was defined by the Snowy Mountains, which Simms once visited whilst lodging at Jindabyne. Polly Wright spent some time in the state. (PROSE: Invasion of the Cat-People [+]Gary Russell, Virgin Missing Adventures (Virgin Books, 1995).)

The Eleventh Doctor, Kazran Sardick and Abigail Pettigrew also visited the state and had their picture taken in front of the state's signature landmark, the Sydney Opera House. (TV: A Christmas Carol [+]Steven Moffat, Doctor Who Christmas Special 2010 (BBC One, 2010).)
