Talk:Doctor Who spin-offs

message: In the "Webcasts" section I created links for the various productions, but I don't know enough about Death Comes to Time to create one myself. I only know how it ends, but I didn't want to put an unannounced spoiler in the section. I think it's important an article be created for it, though, because I've seen a lot of online chatter by people who consider the 1996 movie, and - by extension - the new series as not possibly being canon because of what happens to The Doctor in Death Comes to Time. 23skidoo 18:45, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)

message: There are links in other articles (such as fanon) to "Masters of Luxor" which was the unproduced second serial of the series. The links redirect here, but there's no actual mention of the story in this article. I don't know enough about Luxor to add anything myself; anyone else want to take a shot at it? 23skidoo 03:33, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: There's a brief mention under Novelizations. Masters of Luxor was one of the script books released by Titan books in the 90s. --khaosworks 05:44, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

message: I've just found out that Professor Chronotis, a character Douglas Adams created for Shada also appears in his later novel Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency. Given that there is now quite a bit of precedent for Doctor Who-related fiction featuring individual characters (i.e. the Liz Shaw films, Auton, etc etc), I think Adams' book should be considered a Who spin-off in this context as well. But I'm not quite sure where to list it. Any ideas? 23skidoo 21:30, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd put it in the "original fiction" section, in the paragraph with Faction Paradox, Miranda, and Guy de Carnac, with a note explaining that "Shada" hadn't been released in any form when Dirk Gently was published, so it's not quite the same as re-using a character who appeared on TV or in a published Doctor Who novel. —Josiah Rowe 22:02, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

message: I know we've discussed this before, but I can't remember where or what the outcome was.  Which is proper UK spelling: "novelisation" or "novelization"?  This article currently uses both, and we should stick to one or the other. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 23:43, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd plonk for "novelisation". --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 04:11, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Likewise, always went with the proper spelling of "novelisation". DrWho42 04:14, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Where has there been an incident in the new series seemingly contradicating the classic series that cannot be reconciled in any way? A wikipedia member with an awful username 20:22, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Good point. I'm not sure when that was added, but I've removed it.  (I've seen arguments that such-and-such in the new series contradicted so-and-so in the classic, but such claims are dubious and at the very least POV.) —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 21:06, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Currently, the lead mentions the following:"One area of speculation is the degree to which spin-off material is considered canon by the series following its 2005 revival. It includes references to some spin-off material, for example the reference to Arcadia, (a planet created for the Doctor Who Magazine comic strip Profits of Doom and the setting of the novel Deceit) in "Doomsday"Do we have a source to the effect that each use of the name Arcadia is intended as a common reference? That is, is the Arcadia in the novel a reference to the one in the comic, and the one on television a reference to the one in the novel? --Mark H Wilkinson (t, c) 17:13, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Doctor Who - The Ultimate Adventure was mounted at Wimbledon Theatre in London for several months starting in March 1989. This musical play paired the Doctor with a set of new companions in a battle against not only the Daleks but the Cybermen as well.
Just checking, but since when was this a musical? Arraitchjee (talk) 22:13, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

message: I was just wondering whether it would be worth making a list of IDW Doctor Who comic adventures (on a separate page), maybe listed by month/year released or split into Doctor and Martha, Doctor and Donna etc etc. Just give it a think. 8-)
