The revived series has tackled this issue head on by suggesting that "time is in flux" and with the exception of certain [[fixed points in time]], almost anything can be changed. Recently, some fan interpretations of the [[series 5 (Doctor Who 2005)|series 5]] finale, ''[[The Big Bang (TV story)|The Big Bang]]'', have suggested a potential reboot of ''Doctor Who'' continuity ''in toto'', but there is also evidence in opposition to this view. | The revived series has tackled this issue head on by suggesting that "time is in flux" and with the exception of certain [[fixed points in time]], almost anything can be changed.

In [[2020]], the [[Series 12 (Doctor Who)|12th revived series]] took another bold move to shake up the mythos of the show, by claiming the Doctor's origins are [[Timeless Child's species|a completely different species]] to what was previously established, that they are from [[Timeless Child's realm|a different universe]] and that they can regenerate an infinite number of times. | In [[2020]], the [[Series 12 (Doctor Who 2005)|12th revived series]] took another bold move to shake up the mythos of the show, by claiming the Doctor's origins are [[Timeless Child's species|a completely different species]] to what was previously established, that they are from [[Timeless Child's realm|a different universe]] and that they can regenerate an infinite number of times. | ||
There has been much fan speculation on exactly which aspects of the television series, books, radio dramatisations, and other sources are considered canon. This has been made more complex by the fact that at least one novel, short story, comic, and audio have all been adapted for the TV series. Additionally, the events of at least one novel have been referenced on screen. For their part, the [[BBC]] have never issued a firm edict as to what counts as "canon". Thus, ''Doctor Who'' stands in stark contrast to the more formalised canons of ''Star Trek'', ''Star Wars'', ''Harry Potter'', ''The Lord of the Rings'' — and, indeed, almost every other fictional universe. | There has been much fan speculation on exactly which aspects of the television series, books, radio dramatisations, and other sources are considered canon.
