 * "Vienna follows the adventures of Vienna Salvatori, the galaxy's deadliest – and most glamorous – bounty-hunter. Originally appearing in Doctor Who: The Shadow Heart, Vienna faced off against the Doctor in a war against the murderous Wrath. But despite her villainous persona, the character proved to be a hit with Big Finish's producers – and her very own series was soon being written!"

That does seem to be language which suggests that this is a Doctor Who spinoff, giving a DW character her own show, much like Torchwood.

And this one from the same link, a quote by David Richardson:


 * "'It's quite unusual for us to get the edits in for a story and then suddenly decide that there was the potential for a spin-off character,' says Big Finish line producer David Richardson. 'We do spin-offs at Big Finish, but rarely that quickly!'"
