The Book of Lists
Unlike other fictional universes, the Doctor Who universe is created solely by fiction. To us, this is not a valid source. Information from this source can only be used in "behind the scenes" sections, or on pages about real world topics.
The Book of Lists was a Doctor Who reference book published by BBC Books.
