Amy and Rory Leaving

According to the BBC, Moff has confirmed their exit in series 7:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-16207688

Can someone update the article?

It's already on the page. MM/Want to talk? 18:26, December 16, 2011 (UTC)

Christmas Special

This page really needs to be updated to reflect the fact that the Christmas Special has already aired. The article still refers to it as if it were a future event.Mandalore74 ^{talk to me} 03:06, February 2, 2012 (UTC)

writers

There should be a space between "writer" and "John Fay"

The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe

Why is The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe stated as part of Series 7? The citation that leads to http://doctorwhotv.co.uk/tag/series-7 doesn't say anything about this episode being part of Series 7.

I think soemone has misunderstood what the article means. I'm pretty sure A Christmas Carol is part of Series 5 and The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe is part of Series 6.

From Steven Moffat's wording it seems Series 7 will have it's own Christmas special. I would urge someone to fic this error.

The Christmas Carol was released with Series 6 on DVD. 214.13.69.132^{talk to me} 11:59, March 7, 2012 (UTC)

Episode Math

So... I'm a bit confused. We were told the 14 episodes would include DWW (as it says in this very article), but the recent companion revelation includes mention of the first half of this series having 6 episodes and the second having 8, meaning 15 episodes. Now, that said, they said eight for that year, which could even mean the second 2013 series premiere. Any thoughts? d ●•· 20:35, March 21, 2012 (UTC)

Going by this page, made after The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe's transmission, I'd say it's 14 PLUS Wardrobe. Apart from The Next Doctor and The End of Time 1, Christmas specials are rarely numbered with the series. -- Tybort (talk page) 21:35, March 21, 2012 (UTC)

Am I right about this? I don't think any publicity has counted The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe as one of the 14 episodes. -- Tybort (talk page) 16:22, April 2, 2012 (UTC)

BBC Trailer

Just wondering why my details of the trailer were deleted. A reason wasn't given? Geek Mythology ^{talk to me} 12:17, March 26, 2012 (UTC)

I meant to actually leave you a message about it, I am sorry. It would be better, rather than describe the trailer, to add the trailer from the BBC You Tube channel. It seems rather redundant and pointless to describe what and who was in the trailer. MM/Want to talk? 12:34, March 26, 2012 (UTC)

Ok, I did put the link in the reference so that people could goand watch it for themselves. (I linked to BBC.co.uk, any difference from youtube?)

Geek Mythology ^{talk to me} 12:41, March 26, 2012 (UTC)

I know you did, but it will still be best to add the Youtube video. If you remember with Series 6, we add the BBC and BBC America trailers. However, they are removed now due to their size causing trouble with the page. However, when BBC upload to their Youtube channel, feel free to add it. MM/Want to talk? 12:48, March 26, 2012 (UTC)

Aliens and Enemies

Somebody mind sprucing it up a bit? Daleks and Weeping Angels are comfirmed, so why not begin a proper list, eh? (173.167.179.77^{talk to me} 22:21, April 2, 2012 (UTC))

It is a proper list. MM/Want to talk? 22:23, April 2, 2012 (UTC)

Can you add a link to the pages for each of those? 214.13.69.132^{talk to me} 06:03, April 9, 2012 (UTC)

No. It would encourage Users to add the fact they are appearing in series 7 to their pages, which would be a spoiler, thus violating the spoiler policy. MM/Want to talk? 09:21, April 9, 2012 (UTC)

Episode 5

Uh, in case some haven't noticed, this will be the first time that a companion change has happened in the middle of a season since Planet of Fire in Season 21 of the original series. Shouldn't there be an additional line saying "First mid-season companion change since 1984"? – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 173.167.179.77 (talk).

What about The God Complex/Closing Time. Karen and Arthur are top billed for whatever reason, but they're definitely not companions during Closing Time. -- Tybort (talk page) 16:22, April 2, 2012 (UTC)

Uh, they're still credited and appear? It really didn't seem like they left during the previous season, and as for Closing Time, it seemed more like a companion-lite episode much like The Lodger. Stand to reason right? If they're still credited, they count. And, litteraly, that didn't count as a companion change. Looking at this season, it introduces a NEW companion instead of using the ones already known.(173.167.179.77^{talk to me} 22:20, April 2, 2012 (UTC))

Jenna

Speaking of the new companion, why does Jenna-Louise Coleman not have a page yet? Digifiend 21:44, April 8, 2012 (UTC)

Cause it's against the spoiler policy. It's premature. MM/Want to talk? 21:48, April 8, 2012 (UTC)

Divorce?

Is Twitter considered a reliable source? Should that even be on there? Anybody could have easily created those documents. Shouldn't that "rumor" be revoved? 214.13.69.132^{talk to me} 06:06, April 9, 2012 (UTC)

When the Fall portion of the Season start?

A lot of us fans are getting confused in trying to figure out when the final five adventures with Amy and Rory are going to air. Is it five weeks before Christmas or sooner? (173.167.179.77^{talk to me} 23:03, April 24, 2012 (UTC))

We don't HAVE airdates more specific than "episodes 1-5 autumn", "Christmas special on 25 December" and "episodes 7-14 spring". -- Tybort (talk page) 00:11, April 25, 2012 (UTC)

2013?

A bit confused here. Is the second half of the series going to include a 50th aniversay special? (173.167.179.77^{talk to me} 23:03, April 24, 2012 (UTC))

We don't really know. Moffat and company are playing their cards very close to their chests on the subject of the 50th anniversary. It's probably safe to assume that there will be some sort of special in November 2013, but so far we don't know what it will be, whether it'll be part of Series 7, part of Series 8, or a stand-alone special, or even whether it'll be an episode or a documentary or something else. —Josiah Rowe ^{talk to me} 23:22, April 24, 2012 (UTC)

The 50th anniversary itself is a Saturday, so it would cause adverse comment (to put it mildly) if there were not an episode on the day. That doesn't mean, of course, that there couldn't be other celebrations, too, either on that date or at other times during the year. --89.242.69.1^{talk to me} 23:38, April 24, 2012 (UTC)
