Behind the Scenes
While real-life BBC News personnel, sets and graphics have appeared in the Doctor Who Universe, AMNN is a fictional creation, analogous to CNN. In real life, CNN generally no longer allows the use of its name, logo, or personnel in fictional contexts after use of CNN footage in the science fiction film Contact (specially footage on then-President Bill Clinton) caused controversy. As such, numerous shows have created fictional versions of CNN for their use.
