Question

Someone better versed into Doctor Who History might want to verify this, but is it the first time the Doctor kills someone with a weapon? I don't recall either 9, 10, 11 of War Doctor ever do this...TzarBorisII 03:30, December 6, 2015 (UTC)

On screen, but remember he was the War Doctor. So this is not necessarily unusual. He also points out that he saw this more as disabling than killing. Had the Time Lord indicated he was on his final life, the Doctor might not have fired. 68.146.52.234talk to me 16:39, December 6, 2015 (UTC)

Time and space query

I have a few comprehension questions: Did the 4.5 billion years just passed inside the confession dial? Because otherwise it's difficult to align this timeline with Gallifreys position in time. Or is Gallifrey time frozen at the End of the Universe? Or is "end of the universe" in this case to be understood spatial rather than chronological? How did it get there? I think the last question wasn`t answered in the episode. --Neshen 13:01, December 6, 2015 (UTC)

I'm not sure that they are at the end of the universe if it is only 4.5 billion years as the end of the universe is the year 100 trillion as shown in Series 3's "Utopia" episode. It therefore must have only been 4.5 billion years in the dial. That or Moffat disregarded plot continuity. Snivystorm 14:04, December 6, 2015 (UTC)

Memory Wipe

The memory wipe scene is clearly a reference to the Christmas crackers in both Time of the Doctor and Last Christmas, isn't it?The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.175.155.152 (talk • contribs) .

Spacecraft name? and article?

I cannot find any name or reference for those amazing looking space craft the timelords sent after the Doctor, however they should defiantly be included as an article The preceding unsigned comment was added by 31.52.44.132 (talk • contribs) .

Ashildr's nose piercing

I took the Story Note out about Ashildr's nose piercing and moved it to the article on Face the Raven because it's actually visible in that episode. 68.146.52.234talk to me 16:18, December 6, 2015 (UTC)
