The Doctor hears mention of the 'Reds' and assumes Manchester United, when in fact their nickname is the 'Red Devils'. Liverpool are known as the 'Reds' in fact. I'm not sure whether this was a script error or a purposeful mistake, but it is likely the former. This just annoys me because I am a Liverpool fan.

Episode Timing

I have discovered in an interview with Digital Spy with Phil Ford, the writer he says Dreamland is set after The Waters of Mars. --Catkind121 14:13, December 3, 2009 (UTC)

Impossible, why isn't Ood Sigma involved. It makes more sense between The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith and The Waters of Mars. I'm A Hydroponic Tomato! Bigredrabbit 01:57, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
So... why should Ood Sigma be involved? Really? Was he involved in every single adventure that the Doctor too? -- sulfur 02:44, December 6, 2009 (UTC)
Here is a link http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/s7/doctorwho/tubetalk/a189375/phil-ford-talks-dreamland-waters-of-mars.html
Cool. I'll make the appropriate changes. As for "why isn't Ood Sigma involved", Bigredrabbit possibly hasn't seen the Children in Need preview of End of Time Part One, which establishes that the Doctor ran away from Ood Sigma and had many adventures before returning to "face the knocking", as it were. Phil Ford pretty much states at that link that Dreamland is one of those adventures, and in fact it may be possible to include the DWM strips with Majenta Pryce and the Doctor Who Ongoing storylines in this gap too. 23skidoo 05:33, December 12, 2009 (UTC)

Spelling Errors

i spotted several errors. i changed solders to soldiers, but there are still some others.

DVD release

For some reason, my copy of dreamland came TODAY. Thre are two discs in it, one is dreamland, one is Greatest moments. thre are no special features 86.152.185.17 22:27, January 29, 2010 (UTC)

  • The BBC is treating the Greatest Moments documentary as the special feature. Could you indicate what part of the world you're in? 23skidoo 17:01, March 6, 2010 (UTC

I've acquired a copy as of yesterday (Oct 10) in the US. However, the main menu contained a glitch that prevents play of the content on the primary disc. It loops back to the FBI warnings and advertisements instead, each time "play" or a scene is selected from the main menu. After a return of the defective disc, the identical error occurred on my new copy. Is this a widespread error for the R1 release, or am I just extremely unlucky? 67.169.238.4 04:44, October 12, 2010 (UTC)

Swarms

Has anyone noticed that The Doctor and a companion get attacked by swarms in both cartoon episodes?

"Fallen Angel"

The first entry in the References subsection says "The term "fallen angel" for a crashed alien vessel is also used in K9TV:Regeneration." "Fallen Angel" is a common enough term for downed alien vessels, at least as far as science fiction goes. It was also the title of an X-Files episode. Shouldn't this broader usage be what's referenced, rather than it simply being used in another Whoniverse episode? DigiFluid 11:01, January 19, 2011 (UTC)

Reds?

The Doctor hears mention of the 'Reds' and assumes Manchester United, when in fact their nickname is the 'Red Devils'. Liverpool are known as the 'Reds' in fact. I'm not sure whether this was a script error or a purposeful mistake, but it is likely the former. This just annoys me because I am a Liverpool fan.

Don't forget the Doctor is an alien so it is normal for him to mistake the nicknames of some football teams, the Eleventh Doctor also mistaken some elements which belonged to football with anoter sport, so it is common for him to make this mistakes.--Bob Dallas 05:23, August 21, 2017 (UTC)
