| ==Valeyard???==
| | {{ArchCat}} |
| Where did the rumor about the Valeyard appearing in this episode come from? Has anyone else heard about this?
| |
| | |
| :I believe that was just someone's conclusion from Bill Nighy's appearnace. To me, he appears to be a perfect candidate for being the Valeyard too (and he supposedly plays "the doctor of art"... remember what the Valeyard meant?) But it's still just a speculation, and most likely very false one. [[Special:Contributions/109.243.23.78|109.243.23.78]] 13:41, April 1, 2010 (UTC)

| |
| :It's not Bill Nighy's appearance, it's Tim Jones. He has the exact same clothes as the Doctor, but he looks, well, different. I think he will be in "Amy's Choice" personally, as Steven Moffat talked of a "Dream Master" to appear in it.

| == Reason for suicide ==
| |
| | |
| The Van Gogh story is set in Provence, ie historically within the last 2 years of Van Gogh's life prior to him fatally shooting himself after experiencing severe undiagnosed depression / mental illness. During this period he did works for the 'Decoration of the Yellow House', and the Curtis rumour is that in the episode Van Gogh attacks a yellow monster. Any connection? Also, is this hinting at a possible explanation here for contributory factors to his suicide? [[Special:Contributions/86.26.137.154|86.26.137.154]] 08:04, April 14, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| This was my thought as well, as it appears set at the end of his life - the description of him being a 'sad and lonely painter' I suppose indicates they are not going to try and be overly revisionist and provide a complete explanation of his suicide to avoid or gloss the 'messy business' of mental illness thats not often dealt with openly enough in tv etc - though it is a family adventure program, so who knows?

| ==Doctor-Lite Episode?==
| |
| I've heared that ''The Lodger ''is the Amy-lite epeisode, so reason tells me that ''Vincent and the Doctor ''is the Doctor-lite one. Is this true? I mean, I've seen clips of the Doctor from this episode, but the synopis seems to comfirm that it is at least from Amy's point of view. Any ideas? [[User:MidnightCat|MidnightCat]] 17:12, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

| | |
| I don't think this episode is a Doctor-lite, I don't think season has one this season. I've seen clips of this from the trailer and it shows alot of the doctor being involved. :) -- [[User:Michael Downey|Michael Downey]] 17:45, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

| The Coming Soon montage at the end op ep 1 has clips from many episodes. Amy is seen wearing her scarf and outfit she wears in other stills released for this episode; she is seen wearing them as a semi wrecked Cyberman advances on her.
| |
| ==The alien of the episode==
| |
| I don't know what to expect from this episode, alien-wise, but I'm expecting a cerberus-like creature. (For those who don't know, a cerberus is a three-headed dog, like Fluffy from Harry Potter). By the Doctor's words: "Could you breathe a little quieter please?" I think the creature must have phenomenal hearing. Meta-Levia, 16:37, May 30, 2010 (GMT)

| I think it looks a bit like a nimon. [[User:TorchwoodGuy05|TorchwoodGuy05]] 14:52, May 31, 2010 (UTC)

| <p style="text-align:center">when the doc says he thinks he has seen the face before that could mean it is a old/oldish and the only clue we have got to that is a possible raxacorricofallapatorian apperence named timoreen (most rax familys end in een slithEEN blavarEEN) and the gray foot looks like a rax foot and when the "tail" sweeps that could be the arm for the arm is very long</p>

| IMHO it's a cockatrice, a mythical creature, part rooster with a large reptile/lizard like tail and wings, is invisible so no one sees it, and which, like a basilisk, has eyes which turn things to stone, hence the doctor running around with a mirror.

| From the trailers, they remind me of the Reapers that appeared in the Ninth Doctor episode ''Father's Day'' (which could explain why the Doctor says that he's seen that face before). --[[User:Sudipal|Sudipal]] 21:27, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

| :Here's what the Doctor says about the alien: "They travel in space, they travel as packs scavenging across the universe – sometimes one of them gets left behind and because they are a brutal race the others never come back, so, dotted all around the universe are individual, utterly merciless, utterly abandoned [insert name of monster], and what they do is, well kill until they’re killed, which they usual aren’t because other creatures can’t see them."

| Where did this assertion come from? [[User:MarcRS|MarcRS]] 23:25, May 30, 2010 (UTC)

| *A Google search for it along with Doctor Who, only comes up with a fan claiming to be a worker for the BBC giving out names of episodes. A few are correct, but it's obvious he isn't from the bbc. ''"look im from the BBC and im here to tell you the names of the episode, the 1st one will be called the eleventh hour, the 2nd,meddling Monks, the 3rd, The Dalek Tea party,the 4th, time of the angels, the 5th, flesh and stone, the 6th, vampires of venice, the 7th, title unknown, the 8th, cold blood, the 9th, warm planet, the 10th, lend me your ear, the 11th, title unknown, the 12th, silver sentence (may feature cybermen) the 13th, Cyberwar(will feature cybermen) the christmas special, a crack in time(the doctor cathes a cold and turns into a GIRL)season 6 episode 1, title unknown the 2nd, the house of nothing.

Most of what's there has now been changed to their proper titles, the parts from "a crack in time" onwards are still visible. At the top of the page it carries this warning: "'''Additional note. The following information has been assembled from various speculations from news reports, agencies, fans "in the know" and forums. Most of this is NOT confirmed.

| ==References to paintings==
| |
| The clips indicate this episode will be similar to the Unicorn and the Wasp by alluding to several of Van Gogh's paintings, so a list of these should be added. So far the list should include the Church at Arles plus others seen in the Musee d'Orsay in what will presumably be the pre credits intro, then in the main body of the episode self portrait Summer 1887, Bedroom in Arles, Wheatfield with Crows, the Church at Auvers, Sunflowers in general, Cafe Terrace at Night, and probably Portrait of Dr Gachet, and The Night Cafe. [[Special:Contributions/86.26.137.154|86.26.137.154]] 07:13, June 2, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| *I agree, but think that perhaps it should wait until after the episode airs and be put in a 'culture' or 'references' subsection. Some of these paintings also don't (as yet) directly appear but are alluded to in the set design and shots (ie. I think the episode is set in Auvers rather than Arles, though the bedroom and terrace scene from the trailer are dressed to look like the paintings made in Arles) [[User:DreamSong|DreamSong]] 08:01, June 2, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| : Thanks, and just to clarify, the clips I'm referring to are the 4 clips on the official site as well as the preview and next time clips previously made available, and between them all, indicate the dates and settings for the episode will be 3-fold, 1888 Arles, 1890 Auvers and 2010 Paris [[Special:Contributions/86.26.137.154|86.26.137.154]] 09:20, June 2, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| : From the clips, besides those of us who may know the locations of the paintings, I don't think that there is a clear indication that there is an 1888 and 1890 episode setting, I thought it was just a set design and writer's conceit to include those memorable references to the more famous paintings etc but that is indeed possible. It is also possible to have an earlier and later setting I guess thinking back to my uncertainty from the released clip concerning Vincent's distaste for sunflowers, which he had painted prior to 1890. I guess we shall see! cheers [[User:DreamSong|DreamSong]] 22:18, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

| ==New spoilers==
| |
| On [http://lifetheuniverseandcombom.blogspot.com/2010/06/25-things-about-doctor-who-510-vincent.html Combom's blog], he merged together two batches of teasers (from Teen Today and SFX) for easy reading pleasure. Here they are:
| |
| | |
| :01. “Arcadia, The Trojan Gardens, now this?”.
| |
| :02. “He’s drunk, he’s mad and he never pays his bills.” Vincent is a popular chap.
| |
| :03. The Doctor doesn’t know three things and one of them is about Miss Pond.
| |
| :04. Speaking of Miss Pond, she’s from Holland you know.
| |
| :05. It’s not very good news when a murder occurs.
| |
| :06. “What is it with you and the ****c*?”
| |
| :07. That useless, embarrassing present from a godmother with two heads and bad breath is actually quite useful.
| |
| :08. It’s a parrot. No wait, it’s a polar bear. Is it?
| |
| :09. Vincent can hear the song of Amy’s sadness.
| |
| :10. “If there is one thing I can’t stand it’s an unpunctual ****n *t****.”
| |
| :11. Sssh. You need to whisper in the confessions box.
| |
| :12. That song may just make you shed a tear or two.
| |
| :13. Just who or what could be The Ultimate Ging.
| |
| :14 In some ways it’s the most unusual Doctor Who ever episode ever – never has the show been less plot-lead and more character-led
| |
| :15 It’s very, very emotional at times
| |
| :16 Anyone expecting an out-and-out comedy from Richard Curtis will be surprised. This is about Van Gogh – it doesn’t shy away from depression and suicide. If anything, the episode is quite melancholy.
| |
| :17 The opening scene is a blinder.
| |
| :18 An ongoing gag about the TARDIS’s abilities won’t make any sense to people who don’t know the show inside-out.
| |
| :19 Objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are.
| |
| :20 There’s a glorious visual reference to the painting “Starry Night”.
| |
| :21 The Doctor makes a slip of the tongue.
| |
| :22 There’s some mutual sartorial appreciation going on.
| |
| :23 There’s a major story element that some will decry as a massive plot hole and others will embrace on a metaphorical level.
| |
| :24 The TARDIS is redecorated.
| |
| :25 Two former Doctors make an unexpected appearance (for one of them it’s their third appearance this year).

| |
| :*Stop putting everything in center tags.
| |
| :*Stop using as much vertical space as possible for everything you have to say.
| |
| :*Create new sections instead of finding a completely unrelated section to throw your comments into.
| |
| :*Get a spell-checker. For IE, you can get IE7Pro (free); for Firefox, there are a few zillion add-ons (all free); most other browsers have it built in. --[[User:Falcotron|Falcotron]] 23:28, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

| ::19 refers to the fact that the alien can only be seen in a rear-view mirror.
| |
| ::22 refers to Bill Nighy (who's sadly only got a pretty small part) and the Doctor.

| ::"18. An ongoing gag about the TARDIS’s abilities won’t make any sense to people who don’t know the show inside-out." The TARDIS translates languages for those who travel in it. If you try to speak in the foreign language of the area, they instead here you speak in a different foreign language (so a Roman citizen hears Donna's latin words as being Celtic words). And now, it appears, it messes with accents too - the Dutch Vincent van Gogh is speaking in French, and thinks Amy, also presumably being translated into French, has a Dutch accent, while she and the Doctor hear his Dutch accented French as English with a Scottish accent.
