Nothing in Doctor Who exists in its own continuity. Everything can be retconned into the series now, and I would be delighted to see the show runners work in Peter Cushing as an alternative Doctor or:
These films are not canon though. They were made on the cheap to cash in on Dalek fever back in the mid-sixties. This isn't the Doctor, Cushing is playing a human called Dr Who. There is a passing mention in some book or another but the BBC doesn't have the rights to these films.
But...maybe...they...could...be? One...day?
I know that they’re not canon and that they’re absolutely terrible films. Still, though, it’d be fun to see the show runners retcon them in somehow.
