No, but they do correspond with the TV chronology

I like to think the 8th Doctor stories are, at the very least. (At the very very least, the Seasons with Lucie Miller as his companion.) Some really good stories there.

I've always believed that they were 'canon' until they conflict with something the TV series wants to do..

I know! Too much laissez-faire around these days. Not enough tub thumping.

My view of canon is -if it's on BBC TV, or BBC radio, then it's canon. This would cover the Eighth Doctor and Lucie.

If it's on a DVD as an extra, then it's canon except when it's obviously wrong, like the 11th Doctor taking River to Darillium. In my opinion, it was the 10th who did that.

Some odd phrases can be ignored, such as any mention of being half h***n.

In other words, OP, make up your own canon. No one else will know unless you tell them, and your idea is as good as theirs.
