Never the less, the Doctor Who levels do attempt to get much closer to the heart of the show, and suggest direct continuity to the program's events. In the Doctor mentioning Weng-Chiang, Time Scoops, and the Gelth, it's essentially written like any other Doctor Who story created for fans. Also noteworthy is one particular line certainly suggesting that this is meant to be the DWU, which goes something along the lines of


 * Jack Harkness: "Is it just me, or does everyone look pretty shiny today? And I don't think that it's any moisturizer."

Other franchises certainly do not follow the trend given to the Doctor in the game (many games, including Back to the Future, have the story of the original film retold in the level pack), but it's certain that the Who levels are unique there. Batman in the game is Batman from the Lego Movie. Gandolf in the game is Gandolf as seen in the Lego movie. The DC universe is meant to be the version seen in the LEGO Batman games. The Doctor is just meant to be the Doctor -- they just try and capture the show perfectly without concentrating at all on the aspect of remaking it as a "LEGO world!" Thus there's no reason that it has to be invalid.
