First Contact
CARRY ON DOCTOR
Although the revelations contained within ’s “The Timeless Children” are mostly a retcon, it could be argued that Chibnall has bravely bitten the bullet and tied producers and showrunners had simply ignored – “The Brain of Morbius” in particular (yep, I noticed the clip from that story) and the hints about the Doctor’s past in “Silver Nemesis”. I’m guessing this means that Richard E Grant’s Doctor in “Scream Of The Shalka” and Big Finish’s various alternative Doctors in the series can also be considered canon now, explained as being some of the (who knows how many) pre-Hartnell incarnations.
