I'm always amazed at how hilariously cruel this song is. It's good therapy.
Fly-by post to ask about people's opinions on canon. I know Doctor Who has the craziest canon ever, what with all the differing books and audio stuff and spin-offs, but for shows of the less insane kind, what do people consider canon? Just the stuff that is actually *said* or *seen* on the show itself, stuff said in official interviews by actors and writers, stuff on official websites and so on?
Because Primeval has a whole bunch of stuff on the website that hasn't come up yet in the show (to be fair, six episodes is nothing in exposition terms) and I'm pretty much considering it canon until someone on the show says otherwise. If it's on the official website, then there's a good chance it'll show up eventually on the show itself and in the meantime we may as well use it in fic etc. because there's a better chance of that turning out to be 'show-canon' than stuff we randomly make up. And i hate coming up with my own reasons only to have them proven wrong every other episode.
If that made any sense. Hm. What do people think?
