| == Time Lord Soldiers ==
| |
| | |
| Honestly, I believe the soldiers in this episodes would've been the Chancellery Guard. Now, I'm not sure if that is 100% accurate, but I think it is. Feel free to disregard this though, but thoughts? [[User:TheTARDIScontroller|TheTARDIScontroller]] [[User talk:TheTARDIScontroller|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 04:26, November 24, 2013 (UTC)

| | |
| My interpretation is that the citizens of Arcadia appear to be the non-Time Lord ordinary Gallifreyan plebs, sometimes called the Outsiders, the Sheboogans or the chattering classes of Gallifrey, who don't regenerate or interact with the rest of the universe, from whom the Chancery Guard recruit their soldiers.
| |
| | |
| Either Arcadia was always there, or the circumstances of the time War necessitated it's creation or incorporation for the purposes of civil defence.
| |
| | |
| The fact that there were (something like) 1.7 Billion children on Gallifrey, and we have always been given to understand that there are VERY few Time Lords, who live for a VERY long time, and don't reproduce (possibly with slightly less alive at anyone time than it takes to fill the Panopticon) indicates that the non-Time Lord population (which was roughly 15-20 , if you believe Invasion of Time) is actually actually considerably larger than we have ever been led previously to believe, making the idea of the total breakdown of social order as mentioned towards the end of Trial of a Time Lord considerably more serious....
| |
| | |
| Events surrounding River Song suggest that the ability to regenerate is actually much more tied in with the mutagenic properties of exposure to time travel (or passage through the Time Vortex), and we hear now about this thing called "the Untempered Schism", which they just expose small children to irrespective of the consequences of doing so - which suggest that the creation of Time Lords from ordinary Gallifreyans is a lot more of a system of social control domestically than it is of power projection out into the rest of the Universe and explains a lot about otherwise unexplained developments relative to the Daleks and absorbtion of alien DNA - the Dalek drone in "Dalek" being seen to undergo full-body organic and inorganic regeneration and Black Dalek Sec's mid-life crisis.
| |
| | |
| It's also interesting that the High Council seemingly shows absolutely no interest or inclination towards evacuating any of these people, even though the lot of them would easily fit inside just a single TARDIS....

| There's an ''awful'' lot of speculation and "fanon" in the above. And some straight-up inaccuracies. Regardless, to answer the original question, we don't know whether the soldiers here were Chancellory Guard or not. They're awfully far from the Panopticon if so. All we really know is that they're soldiers defending Gallifrey, so nothing more specific in that regard should be referenced in the article.

| If you look closely at the Doctors appearing in the War Room “screens” you can see two different Seventh doctors from a very different point in their timeline (one looks like the Doctor in season 23 and the other looks like the Doctor in the 1996 movie). It's so obvious that it can't be a production error. So it's likely that there were actually 14 TARDISes in that scene. {{unsigned|Nitro-9}}

| : It's not possible for two versions of the Seventh Doctor to appear at the same time, as there's no logical reason for this to happen. Let's just regard this as a production error. [[User:Gokyr586|Gokyr586]] [[User talk:Gokyr586|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 08:19, November 25, 2013 (UTC)

| This article seems inaccurate too me, as it was pretty clear that the Curator was the Doctor, and almost as certainly a future version, who had chosen one of his favorite old faces. This would seem to me to be even more evident, because, as the Curator is clearly the Doctor, he would have to be a future version, as he has knowledge which was unknown by the current Doctor. People may want it to have been ambiguous, but it really wasn't.

| == Point that keeps getting removed for no reason ==
| |
| | |
| Repeatedly now, a point I have been putting in the continuity section has been removed for no apparent reason. This is what I had posted about the opening scene.
| |
| : ''The opening scenes mimic the original open to [[TV]]: ''[[An Unearthly Child (TV story)|An Unearthly Child]]''. The opening titles are the original Hartnell titles with the BBC logo added. The first shot shows a police officer going by a sign for [[76 Totter's Lane]], and the second shot is set at Coal Hill School as class dismisses. Clara is now a teacher at [[Coal Hill School]]. A sign shows that [[Ian Chesterton]] is chairman of the school's Board of Governors, also showing that a [[Waris Hussein|W.]] [[Anthony Coburn|Coburn]] is headmaster.
| |
| At first it removed the statement under the pretense that statements in the continuity section had to be in an in-universe point of view (something which I had seen another admin dispute slightly before) and that the only difference between ''Continuity'' and ''References'' is weather it was in-universe or not. I messaged the admin who had reverted my edit, and informed him why he was mistaken, but now my edit is still being reverted because what I stated is "already listed in story notes" despite the fact that only the reference to the titles is stated there, and the fact that " [there is] no need for it to be in TWO sections," despite the fact that removing this leaves a gap in the continuity section where this information is not present. I would like now to add this statement without it being continuously reversed for reasons bizarre. I will not re-add it until further discussion occurs.

| |
| :It's '''your opinion''' that this item has been removed for "no apparent reason". As I have stated '''multiple times''', your post is more of a behind the scenes item. In fact, when I tried to move it from Continuity to Story Notes, it '''was already there'''. We don't put the same item more than once on a page. That's valid reason enough, despite your disagreement.
| |
| | |
| :As for a "gap" in continuity, there is no such thing. Continuity is simply a list of things that relate to other stories. Your item shows a similarity between '''scenes of an episode''' (opening titles, BBC logo, first and second shot), which is production, i.e. behind the scenes, information. The item '''is on the page''', just not in the section you want it to be.
| |
| | |
| :One more thing. '''Please stop using language like "no apparent reason" and "reasons bizarre" to describe other people's edits'''. You are not yet breaking [[Tardis:No personal attacks]], but continued language like this may be construed as personal attacks.

| == Two Important Points ==
| |
| | |
| Point One: From the Tenth Doctor's point of view this episode is between 'Waters of Mar' and 'End of Time'(during his "farewell tour). However the sonic screwdriver he uses is colored wrong. It is colored as it appeared during the Ninth's tenure and up until 'Smith and Jones' for the Tenth. The one he should have had would have been silver/gray in color.
| |
| | |
| Point Two: The Eleventh Doctor's console room now has a platform in front of the console directly a crossed from the doors. This was most likely add for support of Clara's motorbike and may not be a permanent addition to the console room.

| ==The second Strax video==
| |
| Aside from the one shown in theatres, the BBC also released a second Strax video telling people to get off social media and watch the movie. This should be mentioned - but does anyone know where it was distributed? Did they actually upload this to social media sites or was it just a gag for Youtube? It might not hurt to make reference to the Strax Field Report videos too.

| | |
| ==Suggested note addition to credits==
| |
| I suggest the footnote next to John Hurt's name in the cast credits be expanded to note that he is fourth-billed in the opening credits, but in the closing credits he is billed between McGann and Eccleston as per his Doctor's placement in the chronology. Otherwise it's possible someone might come along and move him up to 3rd position after Smith and Tennant since he was one of the 3 primary Doctors in this story.

| ==Curse of Fatal Death==
| |
| | |
| When Clara asks the Doctors what their promise is - in reference to ''The Name of the Doctor'' - they say "Never Cruel, Never Cowardly." This exact phrase is used by Emma to eulogize the Doctor in the comedy short. Of course, Fatal Death was written by Stephen Moffat.

| |
| | |
| ==Production error addition==
| |
| The episode (and all official coverage related to the episode) clearly establishes that Billie Piper does not play Rose Tyler - she is playing a new character, The Moment, who only takes the form of Rose/Bad Wolf. Yet the closing credits contain an error as Billie Piper is credited as Rose. This should be added.

| ==Companion photos==
| |
| Article is missing a reference to the fact that Yates and Sara Kingdom are shown together in the same photograph, implying a previously unseen adventure. As far as can be seen on screen, it is the only digitally manipulated image on the board. Do Yates and Sara meet each other in the Big Finish audios? The reference to Grace should be pointed out too, since complex licensing has prevented that character from being referenced on screen or in audio since 1996 (though the comics can use her, apparently).

| ==Another Production Error==
| |
| This one was just pointed out to me, and it's true - when Clara snaps her fingers to close the TARDIS doors we hear an audible snap, however she did it with a ''gloved hand'', and as such there should have been no sound at all. Seriously - put on a pair of leather riding gloves and you try snapping your fingers and see what kind of sound it makes!

| |

| This occurs whilst all three Doctors' backs are turned, and the implications of this are obvious, if indeed the scene captured in the painting (the actual Fall of Arcadia, on the ACTUAL Gallifrey, with ACTUAL Daleks (not painted ones)) is "from life, and if it occurs later in The day than Rassillon's gambit with the Warp Star Diamond as seem in The End of Time....

| == Story note addition ==
| |
| First, is there a particular reason why this article remains locked? The episode is nearly two months old now. Anyway, under Story Notes, please add the following:
| |
| * This is the first televised ''Doctor Who'' story to feature non-flashback scenes featuring ''three'' different [[TARDIS control room]] designs in the Doctor's TARDIS. The previous record-holders were [[TV]]: ''[[The Eleventh Hour (TV story)|The Eleventh Hour]]'' and ''[[The Doctor's Wife (TV story)|The Doctor's Wife]]'', both of which featured two different versions of the Doctor's console room.
| |
| PS: I'm aware we also see two different Doctor's TARDISes in ''The Two Doctors'' but they simply used the same set for both as opposed to completely different sets.

| Again, I have to ask why this article remains locked. A simple explanation would do (is it a vandalism target?). Anyway, please add that Capaldi filmed his cameo on 3 October 2013, the same day he filmed the regeneration for Time of the Doctor.

| == Change, or predestination? ==
| |
| | |
| A question I'd like to pose (and I posed on the Last Great Time War page, too), in regard to both this article and the rest that are associated with it, chiefly the Ninth Doctor's page and The Day of the Doctor. Now, the articles around here written under the belief that the Time War was ALWAYS prevented by War, 10 and 11, but I personally beg to differ, instead believing that the Time War had originally ended WITH the destruction of Gallifrey by the Doctor, and that the Moment was influenced by Bad Wolf's personality to change history by having 10 and 11 involved.
| |
| But anyway, my question is, where is the general belief included in the articles derive from? I wish to know, because there's an equal possibility of what I'm suggesting (to which I'm not exclusive to) also occuring. Was this commonly decided by the site's mods?
