SOTO wrote: The only relevant quote from the link posted above which I found is the following:

"Vienna follows the adventures of Vienna Salvatori, the galaxy's deadliest – and most glamorous – bounty-hunter. Originally appearing in Doctor Who: The Shadow Heart, Vienna faced off against the Doctor in a war against the murderous Wrath. But despite her villainous persona, the character proved to be a hit with Big Finish's producers – and her very own series was soon being written!"

That does seem to be language which suggests that this is a Doctor Who spinoff, giving a DW character her own show, much like Torchwood.

And this one from the same link, a quote by David Richardson:

"'It's quite unusual for us to get the edits in for a story and then suddenly decide that there was the potential for a spin-off character,' says Big Finish line producer David Richardson. 'We do spin-offs at Big Finish, but rarely that quickly!'"

Next question: does "spin-off" always mean "valid source" in this context?
