TBF, RTD wanted to do the whole big spin-off universe before Disney made it cool.

He would have done this with anybody's money. Anybody's.

Yeah, I mean Torchwood and The Sarah Jane Adventures were a thing on his first run though. He was doing a shared universe 15 years ago. This news shouldn't surprise anyone who followed his original run.

Not to mention all the unofficial spin-offs that have existed alongside the Doctor Who universe for years before that even.

They’ve tried it like 3 times. I remember they had that spin-off Class that was kinda like a darker Buffy set in the Doctor Who universe.
