| Why has the deletion banner been thrown up so quickly? People seem convinced this is the name of the episode, so why don't we leave it and just change it if its wrong? Removing deletion banner until we have a rational agreement to this. [[User:Fan555|Fan555]] 15:27, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

| "Craig will either die or join the Doctor by the end of this episode. Another possibility is the the Doctor will offer him a trip, but Craig will decline." - so we have three options: he'll die, live and not go with the Doctor, or live and go with the Doctor. There are no other options. So in other words this adds nothing at all. I move to delete this "rumour".

| ==Title==
| |
| I've recently noticed the number of titles for this episode. Where did they all come from?
| |
| | |
| "This episode was mistakenly entitled '''Reality Check''', '''A Clinical Finish''', '''Don't Go Up the Stairs'''"
| |
| | |
| And now this new one thats appeared out of nowhere, ''''Something At the Top of the Stairs''''.
| |
| | |
| Please do explain!!

| ==Trailer Differences==
| |
| Well good pointing out there, whoever 90.210.32.122 is! Following on from that there are actually a lot of differences!
| |
| | |
| 1: The Voice
| |
| | |
| 2: Zooming into the intercom and the shadow thing. (One zooms in closer than the other)
| |
| | |
| 3: The beeping noice as the man walks up the stairs
| |
| | |
| 4: The crash before the women says, '''"What is he doing up there?"''' (Not heard in the bbc website preview)
| |
| | |
| Anyone notice any more differences?

| ==Tardis?==
| |
| The doctors line of "Someone has tried to build a tardis" Makes me think this isn't a crashed time lord vehicle, but a time machine some other alien race has attempted to build. Any one else agree?[[User:A Pickering|A Pickering]] 19:15, June 12, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| I'd prefer it to be an alien race than the Time Lords ( - unless it's Omega). One thing I will point out though - a home made Tardis and still not that Blue Peter competition winners console. When's it gonna go in?[[User:Baziel|Baziel]] 21:29, June 12, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| Are there pictures from the Blue Peter console design? It wasn't necessarily going to make it into the show; the design would "feature in some way" towards the end of the season.
| |
| | |
| And not to mention; the TARDIS is old tech by Gallifrey's standard. It's highly probably that another advanced race came across a decommissioned TARDIS somewhere along the line, or the plans for one, and attempted to build their own. You would wonder why we haven't seen one before, especially since the Time Lords went *kablooey*. -[[User:Jedman67|Jedman67]] 04:51, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

| The control pannels of the "TARDIS" had dome-like controls. Possibly Dalek Technology? [[User:DalekJast092|DalekJast092]] 09:28, June 13, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| :Please sign your posts with four tilde (~) symbols... especially since I think you're on to something. It certainly looked Dalek-y (Dalekish? Dalekesque?) to me as well; the structure over the controls reminded me of the Dalek Emperor back in parting of the ways. [[User:Monkey with a Gun|Monkey with a Gun]] 06:17, June 13, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| ::The Daleks have already built [[DARDIS]]es in the past, apparently from reverse-engineered Time Lord technology. So there's no reason to believe other sufficiently-advanced races couldn't do something similar. Also, the Doctor calls it an "alien timeship", which I don't think he'd say about a TARDIS. Nor would he say that "someone has tried to build a TARDIS" if it actually were one. Plus, it's clearly designed for 4 people, not 6, it doesn't appear to be dimensionally transcendental, it doesn't seem to be alive, and the default "true" shape looks like an insectiform spaceship rather than a featureless metal box. So, I'd say the original poster and most of the followups are almost certainly right.
| |
| | |
| ::As for it being the Daleks--well, again, copying a TARDIS is old news to them. Their DARDIS did pretty much everything the TARDIS did, and they apparently abandoned it for better forms of time travel, forms that apparently would have been good enough to beat the Time Lords if it weren't for Rassilon's Final Sanction and the Doctor ending the war. And they had much better tech than this (even not including the stolen Eye of Time) in ''City of the Daleks''. So, I don't think it's them.
| |
| | |
| ::But someone could have built it from reverse-engineered Dalek technology, rather than Time Lord technology. Maybe the Doctor didn't do as good a job destroying the plans in VotD. Maybe the DARDIS that brought Ian and Barbara home and then self destructed wasn't totally destroyed. And think of how many other planets the Daleks have interacted with besides Earth. --[[User:Falcotron|Falcotron]] 08:06, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

| ::
| |
| ::Sorry about not signing before... got caught up in my idea. But who knows what the daleks have been up to since VotD... they did speak about starting again. Possibly a precursor to a new time war. It could be a form of battle Tardis or Dardis.

| after craig touches the 'rot' in the ceiling he falls ill the next morning. when the doctor discovers him in bed he rushes to the kitchen and stuffs about ten teabags into the pot which he then makes craig drink. however, when the doctor is sat on his bed with the full teacup in his hand, the camera that is focusing on craig from over his shoulder clearly shows a teapot only half full of clear water.

| ==Star Trek in-joke==
| |
| Definitely a reference to Star Trek :Voyager towards the end when the Doctor says 'State the nature of the emergency' and then refers to the 'Emergency Crash Hologram'. In Voyager, the Doctor was an Emergency Medical Hologram who, when activated, usually said, 'Please state the nature of the medical emergency.' [[User:Neil DG|Neil DG]] 22:13, June 12, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| I saw that too, and there was also the rather violent version of the Vulcan Mindmeld, y'know the headbutt. Maybe the writer was a fan or something ~Coolio~
| |
| | |
| It struck me more as a reference to Thunderbirds... "Captain ... of International Rescue. Please state the nature of your emergency." [[Special:Contributions/121.208.92.214|121.208.92.214]] 05:02, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

| ==Gareth Roberts Signature?==
| |
| When Amy uses the magnifying glass, is this a reference to the the [[Graeme Harper]] signature, last seen in DW: The Unicorn and the Wasp?
| |
| | |
| :Please sign your posts with four tildes (~). Anyway, unless Gareth Roberts thought Harper was going to be directing this episode, I doubt he'd write something specifically to be used that way. Not to mention that Harper never has any problem including his signature scene no matter what the writers give him. Also, ''[[The Unicorn and the Wasp]]'' definitely wasn't the last time we've seen that. I don't remember anything in ''[[The Waters of Mars]]'', but there's the mirrors scene in ''[[Turn Left]]'' and the fish-eye window scene in ''[[Journey's End]]''. --[[User:Falcotron|Falcotron]] 03:21, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

| |
| When the Doctor shows Amy's note to Craig and then turns it around to look at it (31:50), there's clearly something printed on the back. The top row (it's upside-down, so bottom to us) is in large caps and says something like "PO?? C????" (or maybe that "C" is an "O"), and then there's a second row in smaller type.

| :Actually, that seems to be the right place for it to link to. If you look at Shada, Rose, Dalek, etc., the discon pages don't have the (TV story) bit. Which makes sense--they're not ambiguous within a "television discontinuity" space. And the template that goes on those pages seems to automagically add the (TV story) bit in for its back-link to the article. And if you look at the list page for discontinuities, someone had to go through a lot of trickery to fool it into accepting the (TV story) bit.
