[edit] Possible Adaptation for TV

At this point it's just 'net rumor (so not applicable to the article), but word has it that episodes 8 (title TBA) & 9 (Family of Blood) of Series 3 also written by Paul Cornell) will be an adaptation of this novel. All that's really known is that the story takes place in the same time period, but that's enough to get tongues wagging. -- MisterHand 21:55, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

According to Outpost Gallifrey the episodes will also feature several characters by the same name as those in the novel which makes the rumor a bit more plausible. Jccalhoun 04:15, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Did this book have the Jack Straws in it? I've never read it... oh, I'm new by the way...--Sekhmort 19:37, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disambiguation

Now that the title of episode 8 of the forthcoming series has been confirmed as Human Nature, I've added content about it at Human Nature (Doctor Who episode). I've submitted Human Nature (Doctor Who novel) for speedy deletion so that I can move this page across to there later (with this acting as a redirect to there). I believe that administrators can move straight over the existing page - if this is easier, please go ahead. Hope this is OK. Silver Nemesis 20:12, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] How the novels fit into the continuity

Does the fact that the 10th Doctor adventure 'Human Nature' is essentially a TV adaptation of the 7th Doctor Novel 'Human Nature' effectively confirm that the novels take place in a separate continuity to the TV series? Or am I reading too deep into things? Chris Evo

It'll probably keep the canon of the novel vague.(84.69.7.145 17:41, 25 May 2007 (UTC)).
