==Agatha Christie==
== 7,000,000 is a reference? ==
Wouldn't Agatha Christie's history be changed due to Donna not traveling with the doctor? Donna was the one who threw the Firestone necklace into the lake to save agatha from the vespiform. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Unicorn and the Wasp]]'')
:I guess that must be true, but the narrative does not state it. The world would also have ended in Pompeii, but it's not stated. And it would have ended again several times in season 3, as the Doctor would be dead. However, the talk page is not the place to discuss such things. If you would like to discuss how this episode does or does not fit with others, please visit [[Theory:Doctor Who television discontinuity and plot holes/Turn Left|its dicontinuity page]]. Thank you. --[[user:SmallerOnTheOutside|SOTO]] [[User talk:SmallerOnTheOutside|☎]] 19:21, June 16, 2013 (UTC)
Technically the vespiform would never have been discovered [[Special:Contributions/99.6.9.145|99.6.9.145]]<sup>[[User talk:99.6.9.145#top|talk to me]]</sup> 01:43, August 13, 2016 (UTC)
 
==Dating==
The story gives the events of Runaway Bride as happening at Christmas 2007, but wasn't the series working on a "one year ahead" timeframe at that point? Shouldn't that be Christmas 2008?

== Troughton and Strong directing scenes ==
Why is the number 7,000,000 now in the references section as if it's important in and of itself? The page itself only mentions the events of Turn Left. Is this really necessary information?{{Unsigned|JustWilhelm}}


:* [[Billie Piper]] was seen at the end of ''[[Partners in Crime]]'', and had short cameos in ''[[The Poison Sky]]'' and ''[[Midnight (TV story)|Midnight]]''. The ''Partners in Crime'' cameo was filmed during production of ''Turn Left'', as was the short piece of footage used in ''Midnight'' and ''The Poison Sky''. This means no less than three directors would have been at work on the ''Doctor Who'' set during the production schedule of ''Turn Left'' - the main episode's director, [[Graeme Harper]], the director of ''Partners in Crime'', [[James Strong]], and the director of ''Midnight'', [[Alice Troughton]].

Is this substantiated by anything other than mass speculation? Wouldn't Occam's Razor be that ''Harper'' directed parts of ''Partners in Crime'', ''The Poison Sky'' and ''Midnight'' instead during the production block? -- [[User:Tybort|Tybort]] ([[User talk:Tybort|talk page]]) 21:32, April 17, 2016 (UTC)

7,000,000 is a reference?[[edit source]]

Why is the number 7,000,000 now in the references section as if it's important in and of itself? The page itself only mentions the events of Turn Left. Is this really necessary information?The preceding unsigned comment was added by JustWilhelm (talk • contribs) .

On this wiki, the References section on story pages is for listing (in sentence form) anything seen or mentioned in the story that doesn't have a direct influence on the plot. This section is one of the best ways of keeping the list on Special:Lonelypages short.
