| :Because when the Doctor asks how old George is, he said he's eight. The Doctor said he was bron in 2002. So that makes the year date 2010.

| ::: He says "He's 8 in January" early on, then "He just turned 8." It's possible that in the first case he intended it to come out more like "He's eight. In January." (note the grammatical difference) However, the second is explicitly clear that he is already eight years old.

| == Main image ==
| |
| | |
| I don't like the main image Skittles wanted. It doesn't really describe the episode. It's called "Night Terrors", which mean a night terror. Overcoming your feels doesn't really describe the episode. Mine does, it shows a man turned into a doll in front of [[Amy]] and [[Rory]]. So I'm taking the image down until we have an agreement. Here are the images: [[User:BroadcastCorp|BroadcastCorp]] <small>([[User talk:BroadcastCorp|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/BroadcastCorp|contribs]])</small> 09:12, September 4, 2011 (UTC)

| :No the whole point of the episode is about George facing and confronting his fears, not people being turned into Dolls. I'm readding Skittle's image since there is no point to his discussion.

| ::I agree with Mini-mitch. An image with more dolls are George and him being overcome would be even better here. {{User:D0ct0r11/sig}} 16:34: Sun 9 Sep 2011

| :::Agreed. Also, ultimately, the episode is all about George, and Skittles' image shows that as well.

| == "In the flesh" ==
| |
| | |
| At the end of the episode, the Doctor says, "It's good to be all back together again… in the flesh." Given the importance of [[the Flesh]] in this series, mention of this line should probably be filed somewhere on the main page for Night Terrors as part of the series focus on [[the Flesh]].

| * Honestly, it just sounds like he's referring to Amy not being a Peg Doll anymore.

| Well, the episode was originally placed earlier in the series, when Amy was still supposed to be a Ganger, so this could be something the production team overlooked while editing the ep for its current position. Really though, it's probably nothing.

| == Lighting/continuity ==
| |
| | |
| Is it me, or is there a lighting/continuity problem the first time that the Doctor is in George's bedroom?
| |
| | |
| | |
| As far as I could see, when the Doctor stands up, you can see his shadow in the centre of the wardrobe. Next scene it's to the left of the wardrobe, then centre again, then to the right of the wardrobe. Simple production error?

| ==Madame Kovarian==
| |
| The Story Notes section states, "A scene with Madame Kovarian was removed, and the ending with the data file from ''Let's Kill Hitler'' was added." Where's the source for this? If we're going to note removed scenes, then there was a scene filmed with Amy looking at a photo, presumed to be a sonogram, outside the block of flats, yet that never turned up in the episode. {{User:D0ct0r11/sig}} 20:28: Wed 9 Sep 2011

| == Children's Stories - "made up?" Probably Not. ==
| |
| | |
| The wiki states in one part that the children's stories the Doctor rattles off are stories from Gallifrey, yet in another section says "it's clear he's simply making up the titles." I'm inclined to believe the former, and it's anything but clear that he's making up the titles. It sounded like he was recalling stories from his own childhood, or maybe the stories he told his own son. Anyway, removing that line until someone offers proof that he's "clearly" making up the titles on the spot. [[User:Synthetique|Synthetique]] 18:08, September 18, 2011 (UTC)
