Fan fic as a term doesn't automatically make something bad or wrong. I've read some good fan fic over the years. I'd also consider most of what Big Finish produce as fan fic, just licensed
by the BBC and released on audio... and a lot of it is very good.
 Being fair I suppose that's what any Doctor Who is really when it
all boils down to it if a fan of the show is the Executive Producer... it's their ideas and their vision of the show. Just like it would be yours or mine if we were writing our ideas down on
paper. The only difference is, they are paid by the BBC which makes
their ideas legitimately part of the show.

 It's fan fic if it's written in order to entertain fans instead of
the general audience

Is there really any such thing as 'the general audience"??
Sure, anybody could watch a program once or twice, three times even, but
if they keep coming back again and again and again and again, aren't they, then, really, FANS??

or just one group of fans or one fan or fake fan alone as in the case
of Chibnall who utterly despised the show

"utterly despised the show"?? REALLY?? If someone 'utterly despised a
show', couldn't they just STOP watching it?? Or are they strapped into a
chair with toothpicks keeping their eyes open??
