TARDIS Set[edit]

It says here that the TARDIS set, in use since "The Invisible Enemy" was destroyed between seasons. Wasn't the TARDIS set completely rebuilt for "The Five Doctors"? Is this reference accurate? Asta2500 03:03, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I believe there was a new set introduced in "The Five Doctors" - it was the only basic design which was introduced in "The Invisible Enemy"

Avallion?[edit]

While Aaronovitch's original outline was titled Storm over Avallion, was Avallion ever mentioned anywhere in the serial as telecast? I don't remember it being named at any point. --khaosworks 08:45, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Mordred says it in his ritual Tim! (talk) 08:55, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

It is of course arrived in Avallion, not from Avallion :) Tim! (talk) 09:03, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Aaronovitch as script editor[edit]

A source would be appreciated before this is reinserted, if at all. While Aaronovitch was considered a likely candidate to succeed Cartmel as script editor if the series had continued, I don't recall that he did any script editing chores on his own story. --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 01:14, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Eighties says that he was acting "as an unofficial assistant" to Cartmel during series twenty-six, but he never held any official position. I doubt he would have got the gig come season twenty-seven anyway — I think Colin Brake was the leading candidate, given that he was actually already a BBC Drama script editor (on EastEnders) and probably the only such person who wanted to do it. Certainly he himself once said to me on the OG forum that Cartmel had introduced him to McCoy on the set of Ghost Light as his probable successor. Angmering 16:09, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Jean Marsh[edit]

While I'm not a fan of bloating articles with random bits of unrelated data, the character Jean Marsh played in this episode is so strikingly similar to the role she played in Willow that perhaps it is worth mention. Dxco 04:19, 14 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Removed some horrendous POV[edit]

There was some gratuitous only-the-telly-is-canon POV in the discussion of the Brigadier in the "Continuity" section; I've removed it and added some of that wishy-washy "unclear" boilerplate you guys like to use. --Bth (talk) 14:51, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not "You Know What"[edit]

<<The Brigadier states that UNIT have "gold tipped bullets for you know what" (i.e. the Cybermen). The Cybermen's weakness to gold was first referenced during Revenge of the Cybermen. >>

Except the line is "...even gold-tipped bullets for you know who."

Synopsis[edit]

There are some ambiguities in the synopsis, and a lot of gaps. For instance, the reference to explosions isn't explained. A battle between knights, presumably in the present, is referred to without further mention. Then the battle site is apparently 8th century, and being excavated. Very, very confusing to someone who has not seen the story.124.197.15.138 (talk) 01:38, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Camelot 3000[edit]

Wasn't this story somehow inspired by the DC comic series Camelot 3000? --Victory93 (talk) 07:42, 22 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Continuity[edit]

It seems that this section is actually a collection of trivia. It's also completely unreferenced, so I've removed it. A lot of it was Original research and speculation. There's nothing particularly notable about this information (the Doctor wears a brown coat instead of a beige coat?) either. Can editors remember that this is supposed to be an encyclopedia not a fansite? Thank you.--Tuzapicabit (talk) 11:40, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
