Doctor Who's returning showrunner 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Russell T Davies has confirmed that new BBC iPlayer spinoff seꦗries Tales of the TARDIS is a canonical continuation of the show's universe.
In the new issue of SFX magazine, ✨out today, Davies laughed off the suggestion that some fans might not consider the spin-off a real part of the 60-year-old show's history. When asked directly if the show is canon, he responded. "ABSOLUTELY! Good god almighty! What the flip?!"
He then joked that the show launching on the streamer might somehow disqualify it in the eyes of some fans. "Well, it's going out on the iPlayer. So some fans will be completely justified in saying, if it hasn't been transmitted on BBC One, then it's not canon. I mean, welcome to your life. I have nothing to say to you. ꧋[laughs]"

Announced earlier this week, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Tales of the TARDIS is a new six-episode spin-off designed to comple🐓ment the recent uploading of 800+ episodes of the original 1963-1989 version of the show t💧o BBC iPlayer.
Each episode weaves newly filmed scenes featuring returning Doctors and companions into a clas𓆏sic story to create a feature-length omnibus episode.
Writer Pete McTighe, who has penned the Tales of the TARDIS episodes for 'The Mind Robber' and 'The Curse of Fenric', echoed Davies' statement, saying, "It's not just a simple intro and outro. It's actually a story that moves the characters on. Russell's written this amazing piece for 'Earthshock', which is dealing with Adric's death, which never happened in 𓆉the show... We've never had this stuff before. It is 100% canon."
Doctor Who: Ta🐎les of the TARDIS launches on BBC iPlayer on November 1.
