| ===Why=== | | {{ArchCat}} |
| The first Dalek to shoot the doctor, named Dalek Fred, in tribute to the Dalek Supreme (see http://www.casamai.com/fred.html) should have his own page.
| | == Uncredited == |
| why does it keep getting deleted?
| |
| :Because the name 'Fred' is just an internet meme and we don't know the Dalek's name really. So what would we call the article? [[That one Dalek who shot the Doctor but got blown up by Captain Jack Harkness seconds later]] [[User:Sir Hat-a-lot|Sir Hat-a-lot]] 20:39, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

| Was RTD the one that came up with the idea that Gallifrey was destroyed? [[User:Tweedle dee|Tweedle dee]] 23:39, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

| | * [[Milkman (The Stolen Earth)|Milkman]] - [[Andrew Bullivant]] (uncredited) |
|
| |
|
| Yes I belive so. The idea had been used before in the spin off novels but the Time War mentioned in the currant series was his idea. (I seem to remember there was a planned story which would feature the destruction of Gallifrey for the old series but it was replaced with the Trial of a Time Lord arc.

| :I removed this note. It's not an error, and thus doesn't belong in the section. When things "disappear" just because an actor is filmed from an angle that would naturally obscure the object, that's really not an error. Now, if the headset had mysteriously jumped from her left ear to her right ear, then we might have something. But clearly, if you film an OSS on the left side of a person, an earpiece in the right ear isn't going to be visible.

| ::The article previously listed this as a ''dis''continuity note:
| |
| :::*The [[the Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] didn't translate the [[Judoon]] language, though the Doctor could understand and speak it. 'This could have been similar to the [[Hath]]. This may also have been done to give a bit of humour to a much serious episode. Later in the episode we can understand the Judoon, maybe it just takes time to work. Maybe it can not be translated into English because there is no English for it, it is clear that it is used as some form of clearance code, or something along those lines. Or perhaps Translations are not used in the Shadow Proclamation for legal reasons. Or Doctor understands Judoon language(as being able to respond to Judoons), so no need to translate. Or maybe it translated for the Doctor and Donna, but didn't translate for us, the viewers, because the way Donna looks at the Doctor when he is speaking seems as though she understands him. Also, the Judoon are probably actually speaking English later on in the scene, since in [[Smith and Jones]], the Judoon used a human's words to be able to speak English. Also the "Judoon-Speak" may have only been developed and widely used after the construction of [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] meaning that it would not be programmed into the translation circuit. "Ma-Ho" has been suspected of being similar to his line in [[The End of the World]] of "She's my plus-one." or similar introduction of his companion after presenting his personal credentials.''
| |
| ::The original editor(s) spent so much time trying to spin elaborate (and frankly, quite infeasible) reasons to "plug the hole", they ignored the obvious: there is no hole. It's in complete continuity with "Smith and Jones", if viewed from the Judoon perspective. They need to use their computers to establish what language is being spoken before they can communicate with someone speaking another language. There wasn't time for that to have occurred immediately upon the Doctor's landing. So the TARDIS translation circuits were working perfectly. They were translating for the people being addressed. Wouldn't make sense for it to have been in any other language BUT Judoon, really. Is it an unusual perspective from which to show the circuit working? Yes. Is it discontinuous? No. '''[[User:CzechOut|<span style="background:blue;color:white">Czech</span><span style="background:red;color:white">Out</span>]]''' [[User talk:CzechOut|☎]] | [[Special:Contributions/CzechOut|<font size="+1">✍</font>]] 23:18, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

| -I've also heard the name Dalek 'Kest' running around (specifically on [[Jack Harkness]]' page) Just for clarification, where are these names coming from? [[Special:Contributions/86.165.95.231|86.165.95.231]] 09:52, 1 July 2008 (UTC).

| == Is there news, of him? ==
| |
| | |
| This is probably my favorite dialog of all time. I have transcribed here for reference. I would like to note that in the Plot summary on the wiki page it says "The three-fold man. He dances in the Universe." What I heard was the "pre-formed man" and "He dances in the lonely places". I'm not certain about "three-form" or "pre-formed," but I am certain about lonely places. Also I think my transcribing makes much more sense contextually. (The doctor is pre-formed, get it?, before his formation, i.e., regeneration and subsequent spawning of a new doctor or whatever you want to call that.) Also, "dances in the lonely places" makes much more sense given the theme of the Doctors loneliness through the arc. Thoughts?
| |
| | |
| Here is the complete scene, as best I can make out...
| |
| | |
| SUPREME DALEK:
| |
| Commence the landings
| |
| bring the humans here
| |
| prepare the crucible
| |
| | |
| DAVROS:
| |
| Supreme Dalek, is there news?
| |
| | |
| SUPREME DALEK:
| |
| Earth has been subjugated.
| |
| | |
| DAVROS:
| |
| I mean, is there news of him?
| |
| | |
| SUPREME DALEK:
| |
| Negative. No reports of time-lord. We are beyond the Doctor's reach.
| |
| | |
| DAVROS:
| |
| Fascinating. If I had not elevated you beyond crude emotions I could almost mistake that tone for one of victory. Beware your pride.
| |
| | |
| SUPREME DALEK:
| |
| The Doctor cannot stop us.
| |
| | |
| DAVROS:
| |
| And yet, Dalek Caan is uneasy.
| |
| | |
| SUPREME DALEK:
| |
| The abomination is insane.
| |
| | |
| DAVROS:
| |
| Show respect! Without Dalek Caan none of this would be possible. And he speaks only the truth.
| |
| | |
| DALEK CAAN:
| |
| He is coming. The pre-formed man. He dances in the lonely places. Oh, creator of us all. The doctor is coming!
| |
| | |
| :It was "three-fold man", but it was also "dances in the lonely places". The "three-fold man" part presumably refers to the two Doctors and Donna with the Time Lord consciousness. {{:User:Ghelæ/sig}} 06:26, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

| == Temporal Pocket ==
| |
| | |
| Is it worth noting that the Medusa Cascade being a second out of synch with real time is just like the sontarans and the cars (just saw SS again.)?
| |
| | |
| :Explain about the Sontarans and the cars being out of sync. I don't understand. [[User:Steed]] 17:20, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| The pockets that contain the ATMOS gas. The Doctor says he couldn't see it before because he didn't know what to look for, and that the Sontaran devices are a second out of synch with real-time, making it difficult to find. In the Stolen Earth, the Doctor can't find the Medusa Cascade because he says the Daleks moved it a second out of synch. It should be in the synopsis for the Sontaran Stratagem.

| | |
| ==Harriet Jones==
| |
| Why isn't Harriet Jones listed as a companion? She helped the Doctor to an extent that would classify her as a companion, in numerous episides ([[Aliens of London]], [[World War Three]], [[The Christmas Invasion]], [[The Stolen Earth]]?

| == What happens without a Moon? ==
| |
| | |
| | |
| The idea that the sudden absence of the Moon would cause huge earthquakes, tidal waves and cause the Earth to "fall apart" is simply ludicrous. Tidal movement would fade away - no more high and low tides, but the decay wuold be gradual over days or weeks, as the large-scale water movements that cause tides lost impetus.
| |
| | |
| Rapid changes in the Earth's velocity - normally about 29.7 Km/sec - would cause the effects described, but that could be avoided if the Daleks teleported the Earth to the Medusa Cascade.
| |
| | |
| If the Earth is considered as travelling in a straight line, with the circular motion of the Earth around the Sun being due to curvature of space caused by the mass of the sun - Einstein and all that) then it may be possible to teleport it from one point in the universe to another without affecting that velocity. It would appear in the Medusa cascade, still moving at the same velocity, but no longer orbiting the Sun. It would then begin to be affected by the gravity of the other planets, but any changes in velocity may still be gradual enough to not cause huge tidal waves and things. Something the size of the Earth has a good deal of inertia, causeing the changes to happen comparatively slowly. An astrophysicist could probably work it out with several pages of equations, but not me.
| |
| | |
| The trip back, being towed by the TARDIS, is more problematical, as it appears that the Earth underwent high acceleration on leaving the Cascade.

| An IP user completely removed the Discontinuity Sections for this article and for ''[[Journey's End]]''.
