Talk:The God Complex (TV story)

Episode Image is too much of a spoiler

I know the episode is done and all that but cmon, the episode image spoils the whole thing. Shouldn't it be something that doesn't give away the ending? Rawrgoaway 02:36, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

Not really. In any case, the image doesn't spoil the episode as the setting was hardly as central to the plot as say, Amy or even the Minotaur.--Skittles the hog - talk 14:13, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

Room Numbers

Amy's room number was 7, which is both a reference to her age when she first met the Doctor and Karen Gillan being the seventh multi-story companion.

1. Rose
2. Jack
3. Mickey
4. Sarah Jane
5. Martha
6. Donna
7. Amy

The Doctor's room number was 11, which is both a reference to his current regeneration and Matt Smith being the 11th actor to play the Doctor in the main series.Wollstone 06:33, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

Just to make things clear, 11 isn't the doctor's regeneration. The doctor has only regenerated 10 times. A lot of people get confused with the whole "13 regnerations" and everyone thinks its sooner than supposed to be because "11th doctor means 11th regneration" but it's better to say the Doctor's 11th Incarnation, as the first doctor didn't have to rengerate to become the first doctor. In The Five Doctors, the 1st asks the 5th "Regneration?" and the 5th replies "Fourth." Rawrgoaway 07:38, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

Well I'll carlify that this is his 11th incarnation and not regeneration.Wollstone 07:40, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

Also, i don't really think it's an in world reference to the fact that Matt Smith is the 11th actor to play the Doctor. My opinion though, do as you wish with that =D Rawrgoaway 07:46, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

Well it's not in world, but it is a nod by the writers or production crew. I also just noticed it's the episode number as well.Wollstone 07:51, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

In keeping with the theme of the importance of doors inside the hotel/prison, what about Amy and Rory's new townhouse door? It's Tardis blue, with the number 6. Any chance there's a distant allusion to The Prisoner, since Number 6 in that show ends up with his own sports car and townhouse in the end, after escaping the fantastic, deadly, and impossible Village?98.180.51.124 18:53, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

Angels

Should Touched by an Angel be added to when Amy has met them, or is the exact time that book takes place still up in the air?Tivis014 14:09, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

Seeing as she talks about the first time she met them, I can't see a point in adding it anyway.--Skittles the hog - talk 14:11, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

I just noticed Blink is listed, but Amy isn't present at the time of that episode.Tivis014 14:15, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

"Praise Him" continuity?

Not sure if this is worth a mention, but this episode features repeated use of the words "Praise Him" and I'm wondering if this could be considered a reference to the same words used by the Fat/Thin couple in 'A Good Man goes to War'? - they specifically mention they are "being paid to fight him, not praise him" as "praising costs way more".
