Iris Wildthyme was a vastly complex woman, and due to her conflicting and ever changing history, many of aspects of her life had become fictionalized in the 20th century and the 21st century.

On television

According to Iris herself, she claimed that parts of her life were missing due to the episodes being junked back in the 1960s.

Panda told Iris that a man "who looks a lot like TV's 'Catweazle'" claimed that Iris had become a multi-platform franchise, and although Iris said that she didn't know what he was talking about, Iris listed off various mediums relating to that franchise: Spin-Off Audio Adventures, Original Novelisations, Computer Games, and Comic Strips.

Conflicting accounts establish that Paul Magrs wrote Iris Wildthyme novels, circa 21st century, which were inspired by the real Iris Wildthyme (PROSE: Bafflement and Devotion, The Magrs Conundrum!), which included Iris Wildthyme & the Many-Tentacled Menace from the The Continuing Adventures of Iris Wildthyme series.

Meta-fiction universes

In one meta-dimension, Iris existed only as a fictional character. (PROSEWildthyme Beyond!AUDIOLooking for a Friend) The seventeen-episode The Iris Wildthyme Show inspired a cult franchise with CDsaction figures, comicsfan conventions, and over 300 tie-in novels. (PROSEWildthyme Beyond!)
