Below is an artificial timeline representing the Seventh Doctor's life on television, as well as in the audio dramas produced by Big Finish. I've divided the stories and arcs up into sub seasons to make it easier for new Big Finish listeners to identify stories they would like to purchace. Given that Big Finish usually squeezes new stories in-between others, it is possible that I will shift some stories into other blocks or given continuity references within stories, it may result in some stories changing position to fit the correct continuity.
Note I have not included the Novel-Audio Adaptations as they do conflict with the timeline.

Daleks Among Us ****
AZIMUTH DEPARTMENT OF
RE-EDUCATION
REMINDER: TO ALL CITIZENS
There are no Daleks on Azimuth.
There have never been Daleks on Azimuth. Twenty years ago, the Daleks did not
invade Azimuth. There was no war. There were no death camps. A man named ‘the
Doctor’ did not help liberate Azimuth. There are no such things as Daleks. They
do not exist. There are no Daleks among us.
UPDATE: TO ALL CITIZENS
A strange blue box has not
appeared in Monument Plaza. Off-worlders named ‘the Doctor’, ‘Elizabeth Klein’
and ‘Will Arrowsmith’ are not at large in the city. For your own safety, should
you not see any of the above, report at once to the Department of Re-education,
Azimuth Central.
NEVER REMEMBER
The Two Masters
The future is dying. All over the
universe, gaps are beginning to appear. From the space lanes terrorized by the
rag-tag remnants of the once-mighty Rocket Men, to the empire of the Gorlans,
stricken by a terrible civil war. Gaps in space/time, portents of the end of
everything. Only three beings might prevent it. The Doctor, a renegade Time
Lord from Gallifrey. The Master, another renegade Time Lord from Gallifrey. And
another Master, yet another renegade Time Lord from Gallifrey.
