Missing Stories from TARDIS Guide

I like to say you know your really in the canon weeds when some curator (very helpfully) felt the need to add a “notes” section explaining how the hell a story is Doctor Who. Such as this one:

So I guess the fact an entire guide needs to exist to explain how Blake’s 7 is Doctor Who just makes it the tiny weeds that grow on the corpses of bugs on the weeds of the Doctor Who canon /j

I love how this has a stronger connection to the Whoniverse than Blake’s 7 does :speak_no_evil_monkey:

Blasphemous words! Don’t let Delta see this!

Blake’s 7 has a character who appears in both and a character who is heavily implied to appear in both and you think that is less connection than a sodding building!

Oh, I don’t know…someone may have posted a fair few connections in this thread :wink::

Are we planning to add this?

Maybe as a collectable? There’s no story though

I wasn’t sure if a story that’s essentially snapshots in time ending with the notion that we might one day build a TARDIS would qualify for inclusion.

OMG! I think I’ve found some doctor who stories not on TardisGuide!

I was looking at old web archives of doctor who magazines and comics when I came across the ‘doctor who fun book’ and its successor ‘It’s Bigger on the Inside!’, published by target and marvel respectively they each contain a bunch of new spoof comics in the style of DWM’s ‘Doctor Who?’ comedy strip. and each also contain a multi part story drawn in the style of that comedy strip but which are non comedic comic adventures. it has a Tardis wiki page:

There is a spreadsheet but they are packed with one panel gags which the wiki calls ‘stories’.

The Test of Time and Nostalgia Corner should definatly be added as separate stories. but maybe the rest could be lumped into one?

Looks like the new print of At Childhood’s End will be relevant to the site.

It’s Bigger on the Inside is added as a collectable. Somebody probably oughtta add Fun Book too. (I own and have read both of them, and I personally preferred Fun Book)

Excited for this story that I assume is about Ace being stung in the face by bees repeatedly

Am I misunderstanding something? I can understand novilizations being abridged, but it seems weird to reprint a book and just remove some content.

It’s a freebie pack-in with Doctor Who Magazine. I assume it’ll be cut down to the length of the actual Companions of Doctor Who books as a novelty thing.

Thanks. I suppose I could have added it myself, but sometimes I feel lazy. :sloth:
