But surely it's no coincidence that Doctor Who and the Time War, which ends with the Eighth Doctor's regeneration into the Ninth (probably), was released on the day of the Lockdown! tweetalong for the Ninth Doctor's debut?

Also, clearly at some point an agreement was worked out with the BBC in terms of all these new releases being licensed. Farewell, Sarah Jane ending up on the official Doctor Who YouTube Channel is a pretty big clue. I was assuming that this must have gone through Chibnall, and some quote or other was provided upthread to suggest this, but I could be wrong.
