Doctor Who isn't sci fi according to Terry Pratchett

Absolutely. Fully expecting this year's finale to be resolved through strenuous use by the Doctor of the Giggleloop.
 
It's sci-fi, and fantasy, and horror, and comedy, and tragedy, and romance all rolled into one. It can tell any story in any time and any place.

kinda like what the Doctor himself said at the end of "The 11th Hour":
"All of time and space, everything that ever happened or ever will. Where do you want to start?"

Is this some sort of code for anal?

Shush! To talk about the Giggleloop is to become part of the Giggleloop!

I suspect the Doctor will make use of the Nudity Buffer and the Sock Gap as well.

And I can exclusivly reveal that the series finale will see the Doctor battling an insidious alliance between the Unflushables and the Melty Man!
 
Doctor Who is very clearly a science fiction show. Pratchett is out of his mind.
 
deus ex machinas is and always will be part of Doctor Who, its one of the few shows where its part of the charm.
