The article's intro prattles on about this being the new redesign of the Daleks since the New Paradigm Daleks in ''Victory of the Daleks'', and I assume this is a holdover from how feverish we all were from the rumors of the Daleks being redesigned that circulated before airing. But… is it really accurate to say they were redesigned, here? As I understand it, the Resolution Dalek's special appearance and features are due to its being a Reconnaissance Scout Dalek — it's not that the shape of what are to be the default Daleks has been changed; we've just gotten our first glimpse of a nonstandard type of Dalek we'd never seen before, but which had existed all along. Saying ''Resolution'' redesigned the Daleks ends up equivalent to arguing that the [[Special Weapons Dalek]] introduction in ''Remembrance'' was a "redesign of the Daleks". --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 15:12, January 2, 2019 (UTC) | The article's intro prattles on about this being the new redesign of the Daleks since the New Paradigm Daleks in ''Victory of the Daleks'', and I assume this is a holdover from how feverish we all were from the rumors of the Daleks being redesigned that circulated before airing.

The News Years Eve's
I intended to update the relavant articles with what we know about the "19 New Years Eve's" the Doctor took her companions to, but I realised it's not particularly clear as to what the years were. Like, when Ryan said 2000, was he referring to the New Years Eve that was ringing in that year (31 December, 1999) or the New Years Eve of that year (31 December, 2000)?

Tuesday?
I'm sure I just missed it, but when does the story confirm that it takes place on a Tuesday?

Dalek "redesign"?
The article's intro prattles on about this being the new redesign of the Daleks since the New Paradigm Daleks in Victory of the Daleks, and I assume this is a holdover from how feverish we all were from the rumors of the Daleks being redesigned that circulated before airing. But… is it really accurate to say they were redesigned, here? As I understand it, the Resolution Dalek's special appearance and features are due to its being a Reconnaissance Scout Dalek — it's not that the shape of what are to be the default Daleks has been changed; we've just gotten our first glimpse of a nonstandard type of Dalek we'd never seen before, but which had existed all along. Saying Resolution redesigned the Daleks ends up equivalent to arguing that the Special Weapons Dalek introduction in Remembrance was a "redesign of the Daleks". --Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 15:12, January 2, 2019 (UTC)
36 Shrewsbury Road
36 Shrewsbury Road is listed as a filming location on this episode, but from memory the outside of Graham's house never appears. The inside of the house appears to be a set, due to a greater amount of space between the font door and the window than the outside would suggest. Did the outside of the house appear in the episode?
