User:SOTO/Forum Archive/Inclusion debates/@comment-183721-20140901212040/@comment-1827503-20140902160817 In response to the Rule 2 debate, the copyright holder for BBC Wales Doctor Who is the BBC, not specifically BBC Wales. As The Gift was commercially licensed by the BBC, the hypothetical inclusion of the BBC Wales Doctors does not fail our four simple rules.

Tardis Wiki's canon policy states that all stories set in the DWU "count", and as there is no reason to suspect that The Gift is not set in the DWU, my opinion is that the Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, and Twelfth Doctors, as well as any future incarnations of the Doctor to use the name "Doctor", should be judged to have attended the Brigadier's funeral. The War Doctor cannot be definitively judged to have attended the funeral, as War did not self-identify as the Doctor, and as such may not count as part of "all of me".
