In some stories, vague allusions towards ''Doctor Who'' stories have been made, such as in [[PROSE]]: ''[[I Am the Doctor (short story)|I Am the Doctor]]'', where Nardole watches ''[[The Chase]]'', and in [[TV]]: ''[[The Return of Doctor Mysterio (TV story)|The Return of Doctor Mysterio]]'', where a cinema was shown to be playing something titled ''[[The Mind of Evil]]''; whether these stories were meta-fiction references to ''Doctor Who'', or were references to {{w|The Chase (TV series)|the gameshow called ''The Chase''}} and an unrelated film are currently unclear. Similar instances have occurred with characters, where they've been named after or in homage to real world individuals involved with ''Doctor Who'', with ambiguity surrounding whether they're supposed to be direct, in-universe counterparts, equivalents of, or even entirely unrelated individuals in all but name. | In some stories, vague allusions towards ''Doctor Who'' stories have been made, such as in [[PROSE]]: ''[[I Am the Doctor (short story)|I Am the Doctor]]'', where Nardole watches ''[[The Chase]]'', and in [[TV]]: ''[[The Return of Doctor Mysterio (TV story)|The Return of Doctor Mysterio]]'', where a cinema was shown to be playing something titled ''[[The Mind of Evil]]''; whether these stories were meta-fiction references to ''Doctor Who'', or were references to {{w|The Chase (TV series)|the gameshow called ''The Chase''}} and an unrelated film are currently unclear.

Many of [[Douglas Adams]]' ''[[Doctor Who]]'' stories, such as ''[[Destiny of the Daleks (TV story)|Destiny of the Daleks]]'' and ''[[Shada (TV story)|Shada]]'', have implied a shared universe with ''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]'' series, however an authorised sequel ''[[w:hitchhikers:And Another Thing...|And Another Thing...]]'' seems to contradict this by having [[Arthur Dent]] compare the destruction of Earth to early [[special effect]]s on ''Doctor Who'', however by the content gathered on this page, this disparity can be easily reconciled. | Many of [[Douglas Adams]]' ''[[Doctor Who]]'' stories, such as [[TV]]: ''[[Destiny of the Daleks (TV story)|Destiny of the Daleks]]'' and [[TV]]: ''[[Shada (TV story)|Shada]]'', have implied a shared universe with ''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]'' series, however an authorised sequel ''[[w:hitchhikers:And Another Thing...|And Another Thing...]]'' seems to contradict this by having [[Arthur Dent]] compare the destruction of Earth to early [[special effect]]s on ''Doctor Who'', however by the content gathered on this page, this disparity can be easily reconciled. | ||
