| == Duck Pond? == | | {{ArchCat}} |
| What happened to the Doctor after he examined the "duck pond" he says something like he's not ready or not now and he clutches his chest. I initially thought it was the TARDIS key burning him but then he later remarks that he has no screwdriver and no TARDIS....any thoughts?

| OK, while watching the scene towards the end with Eleven and Amy in the TARDIS, the screen prominently focuses on the scanner screen behind Eleven rather than his face while he's talking, there's a wavelength wobbling about on it or something and a constant line showing too. He turns to it and flicks a switch, and on my screen at least it seems like a distinctly different frame pops up before it switches to the next shot, like a still image was inserted in the middle. I'm thinking that A, whatever the screen was showing will be important later as it was the focus of that shot, but maybe the inserted still image might be important too? Does anyone have the know-how to find out what's up there? [[User:Ponk|Ponk]] 14:09, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

| There is a rumor that the Doctor went to the moon for 2 years on purpose to research the Pandorium (spelling?) I cant quite remember what they called it, but that and the Shadow and he came back because Amy had something to do with it thats why the scanner acted weirdly.

| Ohhh, hang on. The static line ('crack') on the scanner screen, is it the same shape as the crack on the wall? Patient Zero spouted some jabber about what caused the crack along with the Pandorium stuff towards the episode's end, could the crack be consistent and have to do with that?

| Went back to look at this scene frame by frame. When The Doctor presses the button, the next shot is of the screen and the center is blue. The next frame is back at the Doctor. Then the next fame is back on the screen, similar to before. Then the next frame is back to the Doctor looking at the screen. The way he lingers at the screen makes it seem like something odd happened.

| | | * [[Coma patient (The Eleventh Hour)|Coma patient]] - [[Peter Moyes]] |
| : It may be that the Atraxi did some sort of temporal scan. They follow the Doctor twelve years into the future to recapture Prisoner Zero, which implies time travel technology, and many segments of the video displayed happen in the relative future from 2010 (including the clip of Nine, which is clearly from The Parting of the Ways). This would explain the apparent inconsistencies in their knowledge, including of things that didn't even happen on Earth.

| | |
| Sorry, I don't know how to create a new heading, but when the Doctor shows the older Amy the apple, why does a strip of blue light come across them?
| |
| | |
| The blue light was a lens flare because they put a light halo around them, notice that the edges of Amy's hair go golden during the shot too... According to Confidential they also slowed down the camera a bit too. I think it was just to increase the drama of the moment but I actually got a bit distracted by it.

| |
| Do we know for certain that the image of the Doctor outside his TARDIS used to illustrate this article is from this episode? I would think one of the shots of him in the Tenth Doctor's outfit would be more appropriate for this story. (The image is a good one to use for the season article, though, as well as whatever episode ends up actually having the sequence). [[User:23skidoo|23skidoo]] 02:18, February 5, 2010 (UTC)

| :Nope. And beyond that, it's low-res, drawn from a webcast. And it's got the wrong license on it. And it likely doesn't even capture the narrative mood of the story. So it's a total waste of time to even have uploaded it and attached it to this article. Putting a picture up of a story which hasn't even aired yet is, frankly, insane. Patience allows for better, more efficient work.

| * And as the BBC has now officially announced April 2010, that proves my point. Sources other than the BBC have never been correct for any of the 3 series in predicting the airdate.

| In case another source is needed for April 3, Moffat said so on BBC Breakfast after the press launch. I'm replacing the source on the Infobox which was a) a blog, b) apparently working off the disputed trailer, and c) was loaded with javascript adds that caused my Intel Mac to crash (heaven knows what it might do to others).

| ==Setting==
| |
| I'm tentatively going to take down the time period given in the infobox. There's no dialogue to suggest a time period. The only date in the entire episode is on [[Rory]]'s ID badge, which says it was issued on [[30th November]] [[1990]]. Even given the fact that people don't regularly get such badges re-issued, he's simply not old enough to have an 18-year-old ID bage. The issue is even more complicated because of that stupid tacked on opening sequence, which is proving all round to be more trouble than it was worth. It prominently shows the London Eye. Somewhere here there's a production error. Don't know if it's the fact that the digital artists didn't remove the Eye, or that the graphic artists put the wrong date on Rory's card. Either way, for now, we don't know what the current year is in the Matt Smith era.

| |
| | |
| : The episode most certaintly could not have taken place in 1990 as Rory's phone has an option to upload to Facebook, which did not exist until 2004, and the ability to upload to Facebook from a mobile phone did not exist until 2007. The Doctor specifically mentions Facebook when talking about the virus. He also mentions Twitter which was created in 2006 and really did not become popular enough to mention until 2008. The story most likely takes place in ~2010 as technology dictates. [[User:CodenameZ|CodenameZ]] 05:35, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

| It's more dramatic than the UNIT dating controversy! Earth's history shows 2007 events, Facebook (2004 onwards) and Twitter (2006, became popular from 2007 through 2009 onwards) are mentioned, there s the whole picture upload thing, a very modern laptop and goood quality webcam, phones that are clearly in the late 2007 onwards era, and other things. Heck, they had filming settings an coloured screens and Facebook! That 1990 thing must be a production era, as all of the modern things we mentioned were actually - and obviously - in the script for the story, whereas that 1990 thing probably wasn't anything from the script.
| |
| | |
| As mentioned before, many on-set reports reported that Amy childhood scene was in 1996, placing the main story in 2008 (when Facebook and Twitter very much existed, and Twitter was popular, and they had thin coloured screen phones with filming settings), and the Doctor's second return in 2010, explaining why Amy's home period is seen as 2010 later in the series.

| ::Guys, look: I understand all this is mightily '''inconvenient'''. I get all the incongruities it causes. But the issue date on Rory's ID is '''the only actual date''' in the entire episode. Everything else you're saying is true of the real world, but may not be true of the DWU. The opening shot shows us the London Eye; are we to believe that the London Eye exists in 1996? And the Atraxi's look at earth "history", well that's a bit of a joke, too. The Atraxi seese things that happened on parallel Earths, the far flung future, and things that didn't happen on Earth at all. So that's no help. None of it makes any sense, but we don't have any other actual hard date to go by. "Set reports" are not valid references for the wiki. Until we get some greater confirmation '''from actual episodes''', we have to report in this article the facts that are at hand. There's not enough hard evidence to say this thing happened in 1996/2008/2010. So I'm definitely reverting the infobox again. But I'll do you a deal, though. I won't put ''any'' dates. That way we can add it later, once it becomes absolutely clear — by viewing '''finished''' episodes — what was in error about this episode and what wasn't. Logically, we must be getting an actual date of this episode, because at some point Amy has to turn to the Doctor and say, "Okay, it's time for me to get married, take me to <insert date here>." I mean that last scene of the episode does seem to set up a very precise time travel request from Amy. We'll almost certainly get to some sort of definitive date for this one. Maybe it is 96/2008/2010. But we can't say it '''yet'''. This ''is'' Moffat we're talking about, after all. We can't expect we're going to get everything handed to us in a simple, straightforward manner. We just have to wait until all the cards are on the table.

| :::By the way, look at this from another angle. What if you were to throw out the badge altogether and '''accept''' that everything else in the episode happens at the same time as those events normally do in the real world. So take DM's laundry list of technological dates above. Thing is, you can't actually pin it down to 2010. The main bulk of the episode works being in 2007. ''Or'' 2008. ''Or'' 2009. ''Or'' 2010. ''Or'' 2011. ''Or'' 2012. ''Or'' 2013. Nothing wrong with any of those dates, really. Twitter/smart phones/Facebook they're all likely to exist in this date ''range''. So without any actual dates give we're ''still'' left swinging a bit, even if we consider the ID badge as in error. But again the badge could still be proven right. We don't know that much about Rory, even from set reports. He could be displaced in time, himself.

| Ok, there is nothing to say the Tardis didn't travel back in time after crashing into Big Ben. So the opening scene could have taken place in 2005(the date The Tardis left Earth from in the end of time). The scenes of Amy as a child then took place in 1996 as the Tardis had travelled back in time. Therefore 12 years later it was 2008 with
| |
| the final scene in 2010. That ID card was an error and The Atraxi was scanning the Doctor's memories, not Earth's history.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| Rory's phone is a Blackberry Storm, which was released in mid Nov. 2008, which places this after or during November 2008. You don't usually expect to see a nurse in a rural village sporting the latest gadgets, and also, if it was December, there would have been Christmas decorations somewhere. So it could easily be 2009 when the bulk of this is set, or even 2010. It could, for all we know, be 1998/2010/2012 that this episode takes place in. It really only makes sense to me that Tennant regenerated in 2010. That bump could have been the TARDIS being jolted back in time a few years. It doesn't make that much sense to be in 2008, with so little of it left if you use the gadget dates. -[[User:Ravrahn2|Ravrahn2]] 08:43, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

| Theres nothing onscreen to indicate Amelias time period except the shed.

| : Honestly, can we please stick to ''normal'' theories? Stephen Moffat may like to throw us off a bit here or there, but that is just complete balony. Most logical theory is that the ID badge is a production error, and the bulk of the story takes place between 2008-2010. There is nothing to indicate that it does not take place in the present day, and the presence of the blackberry storm can also be a production error. Stick to reality, people.

| == Talking to Himself. ==
| |
| | |
| I think that in Room with a Deja Vu ( IDW Comic) a significant aspect was that he talked to himself. perhaps a reference?[[User:Excalibur-117|Excalibur-117]] 11:25, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

| ==Plot Synopsis==
| |
| | |
| When the Doctor wakes up secured to the radiator Amy is clearly adopting an English accent (reverting to her Scottish accent when she asks why he said five minutes soon after), I think it should refer to this in the plot summary, however, it clearly says Amy is Scottish before it is revealed that she is Amy.

| == Sontarans/Wandering Off... ==
| |
| | |
| Wasn't the shot of the classic Sontaran from The Two Doctors?
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| And the Eleventh Doctor says 'Don't wander off'. Both the Ninth and Tenth Doctors expressed dismay when their companions had wandered off withour them.

| == Prisoner Zero imitating Amy ==
| |
| | |
| I don't think Prisoner Zero imitating the Doctor from Amy is an error, since it was already established that it imitates the main image in it's psychic hosts' minds. When the Doctor got Amy to think about Prisoner Zero's true form, she didn't appear with it either, so Prisoner Zero doesn't necesarrily take the form of the host it forms a link with, but the main image from their mind.

| ==Rumors about the future==
| |
| Just because series has started doesn't absolve us from the rigors we imposed before ''The Eleventh Hour'' began. We have a duty to our readers to try not to include rumours unsourced by '''reputable''' news outlets (i.e., not some dude's blog). I've therefore removed a couple of items, but am preserving them here so that they might be reincorporated later, if they turn out to be true.
| |
| :'''This one's not a direct quote, but a summary.''' Speculation about the dates of this episode based upon purported dialogue in ''[[Vincent and the Doctor]]''. It may well turn out to be true, but we have no context for any leaked lines, nor do we know for sure that what might have been heard/seen in filming will make it through the editing process.
| |
| :'''This was lifted directly from article''': One of the episodes of Series 5 is rumoured to be called The Pandorcia Opens and it has also be rumoured that a silent menace will follow the Doctor and Amy on their travels, the term "silence will fall" was mentioned a few times by Steven Moffat when refering to arc and nature of series 5. Prisoner Zero also reveals that he has nothing to do with the crack in Amy Pond's wall, and mentions that there are cracks throughout the universe, amused that the Doctor does not know what the cause is; these are likely the watchwords and things to look out for planted throughout the series, much like 'Bad Wolf' and 'Torchwood'.

| | |
| Please try to add things to articles that are based on finished, broadcast episodes, especially as we don't have to wait so long now for our questions/theories to be answered/validated.

| == Production Error: Six rooms? ==
| |
| There are only five hallway doors on that floor of the house, two at the end of the hallway where the Doctor is chained to the radiator, prisoner zero's room, the one to the left of zero's and the one to the right of zero's. Production error? -- [[User:Karm1c|Karm1c]] 00:55, April 6, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| ::No, cause there's one ''to the left of'' the one to the left of Zero's. That is to say, in back of Amelia's room, under the stairs. You don't see it for the longest time, but Amelia's room clearly doesn't run the entire depth of the house. Also, adult Amy points to it when she does her count. Look where her hand lands on "five"; it's clearly pointing diagonally behind her, towards the stairs. It finally shows up when Zero knocks down the door.

| :::Thanks! That was the only place a figured there could be another door, but, having watched and re-watched the scene with the Doctor running up the stairs (just before the cricket bat), didn't see anything. Jump to the scene you pointed out, and there it is. -- [[User:Karm1c|Karm1c]] 11:43, April 9, 2010 (UTC)

| == Blackberry storm ==
| |
| | |
| http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/The_Eleventh_Hour suggest blackberry storm is used to write the virus. If that's the case, timeline would be 2008? And 2 years later (2010), the Doctor invites Amy Pond to the Tardis?

| ==Production Error==
| |
| When the Doctor leaves the hospital to return to Amy's house - how did he get there??? He got to the hospital with the fire engine and Amy got there in the the red VW. She obviously drove the VW home, but the Doctor had NO WAY to get there. [[User:Idji|Idji]] 18:21, April 7, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| It is unsure how they got back. They could have got back the same way or they could have run just they left it out probably because of timing in the episode. It is a question that will probably never be answered. -- [[User:Michael Downey|Michael Downey]] 17:26, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

| | |
| I have a answer, as shown in many stories the doctors stamina is much greater than a human, as is his lung capasity, so that means that if he ran flat out, which he proberly didn't it wouldn't take him that long, as it doesn't take eather of them long to get there by car, so with a greater stamina and plus, lets not forget that as he was still in the first few hours of his regeneration, where it has also been previously shown, stated or hinted that during it his physical abbilities increase, he could have made it in only a little while, although admitally some of it was left out due to timing, but still it wouldn't take him that long. --[[General MGD 109]] 18:47, April 6, 2010 (UTC)

| It wasn't really any part of the story anymore, so they glossed over it, and hoped the viewer wouldn't notice. [[User:Idji|Idji]] 18:21, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

| Its a tiny village. He ''walked'' (Or ran). [[User:Jedman67|Jedman67]] 23:40, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

| | |
| :The best place to ponder how the Doctor made it back to the village would be in the [[Forum:Doctor Who television discontinuity and plot holes/The Eleventh Hour]]. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 14:15, April 8, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| :Well, I dunno. This is one of those ambiguous cases that might be seen as a plot hole, but it's only that way because of the way the director shot it. This is more about flawed scene geography than anything else.
| |
| | |
| :There's a circular flower bed in front of the hospital. Between that and the front door of the hospital is a roundabout. When looking straight at the door, the Doctor parks the fire truck on the left side of the door. Rory parks his car on the right. When the Doctor rushes out of the front door, the fire truck would then be on his right. But he runs across the circular flower bed, he goes diagonally ''left''' (or ''away'' from the fire truck). So he's clearly eschewing the truck as a way back to the village. The question then becomes, if he's going to ignore his means of transport, why does the script have Amy say that he ''needs'' a car? I think that '''is''' a production error, because all the director had to do to preserve the possibility that it all makes sense is to have Matt run across the flowerbed from left to right, thus at least ''implying'' that he might be running back to the truck. The movement actually filmed, though, implies he's running all the way back to the village (cause it's already established to be to the left, if your back is facing the hospital).

| |
| Perhaps he needed a car because there was, at that time, a need to get there quickly? After it was all over, there would be no 'limit' to the time he could take to get there, and the interval, however long, was cut. -[[User:Ravrahn2|Ravrahn2]] 09:39, April 9, 2010 (UTC)

| == Jeff on his laptop ==
| |
| | |
| When the Doctor snatches the laptop off of Jeff he hints that Jeff was viewing porn. He later tells Jeff to clear his browsing history, again hinting at this. [[Special:Contributions/92.237.115.175|92.237.115.175]] 22:27, April 10, 2010 (UTC)

| == Deaths ==
| |
| | |
| [[Ramsden|Ramsden's]] death is a notable first - a death in a [[Steven Moffat]] story where the person in question isn't resurrected or doesn't die of old age. Surely this deserves a mention? -- [[User:Will101|Will101]] 17:16, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

| Put it in, if you think it's worth mentioning.[[User:Excalibur-117|Excalibur-117]] 17:19, April 11, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| :I only mentioned it as it's been talked about for a long time, even by [[Russell T Davies]] and [[Steven Moffat]]. Also, it is mentioned on other episode pages, including [[The Beast Below]]. -- [[User:Will101|Will101]] 17:21, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

| == Disappearing custard ==
| |
| | |
| Another continuity glitch: the Doctor tips up the bowl of custard to drink from it, but when we see the bowl from the side in the next shot the sides are clean. [[User:Offog|Offog]] 19:38, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

| This is what we call a production error, I noticed it too. [[User:Excalibur-117|Excalibur-117]] 19:48, April 11, 2010 (UTC)

| == Continuity ==
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| I may have spotted another continuity glitch:
| |
| | |
| at the end, in the tardis, when amy asks the doctor why he's taking her,
| |
| | |
| she approaches him from his left. When she is convinced and says "okay",
| |
| | |
| she's suddenly on his right
| |
| | |
| == Five things to watch out for ==
| |
| | |
| So someone put that Matt Smith said there were 5 things in the episode to look out for throughout the series. The crack is one of them, Magpie electricals is most probably another as it's appeared in two consecutive episodes. Anyone else think of any others.
