that is completely wrong. the comparison to An Unearthly Child is laughable at best. you could absolutely "share" that story online if you so wished and had a link... without being BritBox staff.

this is not an already licensed work, so he is "sharing" the discarded extract after having mentioned it. it is not a release, and just something that he mentioned - i am not misinterpreting anything.

i have answered you comment "that it borders on the absurd to imagine that a Target novelisation of a random one-parter began production in 2015, long before Target revived its Doctor Who novelisations". i dont care, it is pure speculation to suggest otherwise - as that is what we were told. who is to say that Target ever had any involvement - he could have just written the story and pitched it to them, there's too many "what ifs"!

and there's a very obvious different between each and every one of those examples you gave; this extract is nothing like any of them. the Dalek alternative script extract was made during lockdown and clearly a parody - and also isnt considered valid. and the other two examples were just ridiculous and have nothing to do with this at all.
