Behind the scenes
Though not identified as such in DWU fiction, some tales from the book that are referenced in the DWU include: Hansel and Gretel and the Big Bad Wolf. (PROSE: Managra, The Monsters Inside) The story of the Shepherd Boy (described by the Twelfth Doctor as "Shepherd's Boy") is named by the Doctor as being "according to them [the Brothers Grimm]", although he does not directly identify the story as a fairy tale they wrote. (TV: Heaven Sent) The Bad Wolf arc of series 1, in which the words appear across time and space following the Ninth Doctor and Rose Tyler, is named for the fairy tale.

The franchise has also parodied Grimm's Fairy Tales in the form of Gallifrey's fairy tales, such as The Three Little Sontarans, The Emperor Dalek's New Clothes and Snow White and the Seven Keys to Doomsday. (TV: Night Terrors, COMIC: Funny Phone Call!, PROSE: Snow White and the Seven Keys to Doomsday)
