 To
 be fair, in the Whovian universe, it is ENTIRELY possible,
 even plausible that all three versions are both real and
 not-real.

 Time travel is
 tricky; remember, per official DW canon, New York between
 about 1930 and 1955(?) is no longer reachable by the TARDIS
 due to multiple time-changing events in the time stream.

 and Rory)

Well, I was referring to the 'old regime'...

The book was written back in the '80's before the original series was cancelled & way, way before it was revived.

I lost interest/moved on after the original series ended & have never been able to get into the successors.

I imagine things have gotten a lot more 'complicated' since then.
