I actually believe that the Real World Cultural References subheading of the references section should be removed entirely. Some of the things that are being added are getting ridiculous. That's not to say some of them aren't valid references. The literary references should receive their own subheading. The reference to Akhenaten could be moved to the Akhaten article under the Behind the Scenes heading. The Hooloovoo reference has been moved previously to the Behind the Scenes heading on its own article and therefore doesn't need reiteration in this article. Everything else that's been edited there so far have been reaching for references at best. Just my two cents.

Type of leaf

In the "Production errors" section, the leaf shown in The Bells of Saint John is described as coming from a maple. The tree was in an English suburban street & is most likely to have been a plane tree (genus Platanus), not a maple (genus Acer). The leaves are similar in shape but planes are much more common in Britain than are maples. --89.242.68.62talk to me 01:27, April 7, 2013 (UTC)

Cultural reference

The Doctor says "I've seen things you wouldn't believe." Sounds like the "I've seen things you poeple wouldn't believe" from Blade Runner...
