Army of Ghosts came afterwards, for one thing. And also, the EastEnders clip in it was only a few seconds long. In the clip, we only see Peggy Mitchell and Den Watts, neither of whom are in DiT. In the DWU it could be only about them. We have no proof the characters from DiT are in the show seen in Army of Ghosts.

And also, whether or not the licences carry through now, why should we disregard the fact that it *was* licenced originally?
