It's quite clear that, from a marketing point of view, Big Finish are eager to advise customers that the Vienna series isn't drawing heavily on anything from the DWU not featuring Vienna herself, rather like how they have marketed Torchwood and focussed on elements from the TV series only. However, from a creative point of view, as explained by the late Paul Spragg and even Morris himself, the series most definitely is set in the DWU. Like Iris Wildthyme, Bernice Summerfield, Charlotte Pollard and Graceless, these are DWU stories based on original DWU characters not under license from the BBC. Anything stated by David Richardson is expressed for commercial purposes, not for narrative continuity, and therefore I feel that the intent of the creator is more applicable to this situation than that of the producer.
