Talk:The Shakespeare Code (TV story)

Possible Reference

The fact that The Doctor is constantly feeding Shakespeare lines to his own plays could be a reference to the fact that none of Shakespeare's stories are in fact original concepts. --Semian2 20:30, May 22, 2010 (UTC)

Though most can see, most are still blind

We need images from the story, some help would be nice. Thank You! (173.167.179.77^{talk to me} 17:33, April 28, 2012 (UTC))

The Final Words to Activate the Portal (The Shakespear Code)

betwixt drovithian shores and linear bith nine three oh one six seven point oh two and strikes the bosom groth of recksel four crude radiating crystal activate!

2.5 Added sources/appearances

I sense a continuity with Rose (TV story), for here too the villains need a real building to activate the spell: while here it was the Globe Theatre, in Rose it was the Millennium Eye. I am pretty sure of this and I would have added myself but maybe something similar also happened previously in the Classics Series (which I do not know very well) or in the spin-offs. --Tito Plauto ☎ 21:28, January 19, 2013 (UTC)

Mistakes or Goofs

Through out the episode a few mistakes were found:

• 1. When the Doctor and Martha arrived it was dark out meaning the globe theater wouldn't be open because its main light source was the sun.
  2. Wouldn't Martha be considered naked like Rose was in Tooth and Claw (TV story)?
  3. Why wasn't Will woken up by the screaming he was woken up by the door?
  4. The phrase "everybody's a critic" originated in the 1900s but it was used by the actor when Shakespeare stopped the play.

Harry Potter/Rowling advertising?

Isn`t Harry Potter mentioned too frequent to be a product placement? Episode aired 3 month before order of Phoenix movie, new book same year. Re-broadcastings of this episode will clearly remind about Harry Potter. --195.91.216.59^{talk to me} 04:14, July 23, 2013 (UTC)
