| Jul 18, 2017 at 12:23 | comment | added | Werrf | @phantom42 I wouldn't say it's a 'splitting hairs' thing - that implies that it's a fine distinction that most people wouldn't care about. CotFD was a parody comedy sketch, never considered a part of Who proper. Imagine if Saturday Night Live did a Star Trek sketch with a Klingon as the captain; nobody would consider that to be "the first non-human Star Trek captain". | |

| Jul 18, 2017 at 11:09 | comment | added | Rand al'Thor♦ | @phantom42 Curse of Fatal Death is usually regarded as non-canon (to the extent that there's any concept of canon in DW), and it certainly contradicts the main continuity of the show, with the Ninth to Thirteenth incarnations of the Doctor being played by Rowan Atkinson, Richard Grant, Jim Broadbent, Hugh Grant, and Joanna Lumley rather than Eccleston, Tennant, Smith, Capaldi, and Whittaker. It was a spoof and clearly takes itself even less seriously than the rest of DW. | |

| Jul 17, 2017 at 12:22 | comment | added | Politank-Z | Correct. Also, CoTFD is fairly obscure. | |
| Jul 17, 2017 at 12:22 | comment | added | phantom42 | So it's a splitting hairs thing? "She's the first in-universe woman doctor, but not the first one in an official production"? | |
