The following sentence was removed: "It was the first of a two part story". The editor removed it, thinking it said, "It was the first two part story." It actually means the first '''part''' of a two part story. Therefore I restored it.

I'm not aware of a lot of episodes after the beginnings of season 6, and the statement by the Ninth Doctor says all, but I was pretty sure that the Empty Child and the Doctor Dances were the only two episodes in which, well, nobody was dead at the end of it that wasn't beforehand. I was wondering if this should be added as Trivia on one or both pages? Thanks.

We never get a clear shot of Timothy in the brief appearance of Mr and Mrs Lloyd.

Real Life Continuity[[edit source]]

I was thinking of putting something about this on the the page somewhere but I wasn't sure where the best place to put it would be.

Basically it would be talking about the cymbal playing monkey in the Lloyd's house really shouldn't be there as cymbal playing monkeys weren't created until the 1950's I'd probably also mention the fact the at least one of the locomotives around Limehouse Green Station was in British Railways Mixed traffic black livery despite the fact British Railways wasn't formed until 1945 (although that's nitpicking more than anything else).The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tidmouthmilk12 (talk • contribs) .

Thanks for posting here before adding anything like that to the page. On this wiki, it's a policy to not hold stories to real world standards. As far back as the 1960s, Doctor Who has deviated from the real world. So in general we don't bother showing the discrepancies between the real world and the DWU. You can read more at T:NO RW.
