Talk:Death Is the Only Answer (TV story): Difference between revisions

::Every bit of BBC publicity about this refers to it as though it's part of the series.  It's a "one-off mini episode of ''Doctor Who''," a "bonus episode," a "spin-off," a "''Doctor Who'' mini-adventure," and such [http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/stories/2011/08_august/24/who.shtml][http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/proginfo/tv/2011/wk40/sat.shtml#sat_doctorwho2][http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/dw/news/bulletin_110707_03/Script_to_Screen_Winners_Announced] none of which implies the BBC intend for it to be taken as anything but part of ''Doctor Who.''  It certainly seems to be within the remit of [[Tardis:Canon policy]], which includes "All Doctor Who television stories;" it's a ''Doctor Who'' story, it was broadcast on television, and it's not a ''[[The Curse of Fatal Death]]''-type overt spoof or an obvious out-of-universe affair like ''[[A Fix with Sontarans]].''  Indeed,m there's precedent for winners of childrens' contests being every bit as official as anything else; [[Susannah Leah]]'s [[Junk TARDIS]] console design was featured in the relevant episode and ''Confidential'' and even made into a licenced toy. — [[User:Rob T Firefly|Rob T Firefly]] - '''[[User talk:Rob T Firefly|Δ]][[Special:Contributions/Rob T Firefly|∇]]''' - 21:36, October 2, 2011 (UTC)
