::: The reason for the caution is a) there was a report that she was cast as another character when her casting was announced and b) not all versions of the Prologue circulated online had actor credits. The version I saw that was posted to YouTube by the BBC had no credits identifying the character. Based on those two things alone the first confirmation I found that wasn't a fan site was the Doctor Who Extra that was released a few days later.  EDIT: By the way, I am aware that there is a BBC Publicity source that could be used to confirm, however as that relates to an episode that hasn't aired yet, not the prologue (cast list) I wouldn't be allowed to use it as a source even if I'd known about it.

I've removed the rename template, as now the behind-the-scenes feature has confirmed that the title is ''Prologue''. We do not need a more complex title than the one we have now as there is not another webcast or even another prequel named ''Prologue''. We do the parenthesis thing with the ''Prelude'' titles because most of those prelude shorts were named the same thing, thus a difference needed to be noted. But as this story shares the title only with a [[Prologue (short story)|short story]], I say less is more.

Ohila?[[edit source]]

Has it actually been confirmed that this is Ohila? 68.146.52.234talk to me 15:33, September 11, 2015 (UTC)

This character is played by Clare Higgins. Higgins played Ohila in The Night of the Doctor. This character looks like Ohila. This character has the same voice as Ohila. Ohila was the leader of the Sisterhood of Karn. This character is a Sister of the Sisterhood. I see really only one possible candidate. Ohila. --DCLM 16:23, September 11, 2015 (UTC)

Rename[[edit source]]

I've removed the rename template, as now the behind-the-scenes feature has confirmed that the title is Prologue. We do not need a more complex title than the one we have now as there is not another webcast or even another prequel named Prologue. We do the parenthesis thing with the Prelude titles because most of those prelude shorts were named the same thing, thus a difference needed to be noted. But as this story shares the title only with a short story, I say less is more. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 15:25, September 14, 2015 (UTC)

  • Was this short not previously announced as having another title? I agree keep "Prologue (webcast)" the way it is at least until such a time as there's another one of the same title, but the notes should indicate the title. BBC America announced the title as "The Doctor's Meditation." 68.146.52.234talk to me 20:57, September 15, 2015 (UTC)
Prologue and Meditation are two different minisodes. 220.244.91.226talk to me 04:00, September 16, 2015 (UTC)
