At some point after the airing of ''[[The Power of the Doctor (TV story)|The Power of the Doctor]]'', someone went back and edited all of the story numbers to indicate that ''The Haunting of Villa Diodati'' is the first episode in a three-parter. Was there a discussion on this topic that I missed? I haven't seen the episode referred to as such in any official sources.

Ghosts

Should there be made note of the ghostly characters and the very lively skeleton in this episode? These aspects of the episode seem to have been very much overlooked. --DCLM 07:46, February 18, 2020 (UTC)

The skeleton is very clearly the Cyberium's actions, IIRC. But yes, the ghosts is another thing entirely, and if you think they're not currently given sufficient coverage on the page, there's an edit button to remedy just such a situation. I'm unsure why you brought this to the talk page. --Scrooge MacDuck 10:58, February 18, 2020 (UTC)
No, I meant on the Internet in general. Articles, such as those from CultBox and Radio Times, usually cover everything. But nothing online seems to be talking about them. At all. --DCLM 11:00, February 18, 2020 (UTC)
I'm sure it's just me being paranoid, but it seems like you're a little bit after me whenever I say something. Again, it's surely just me. --DCLM 11:03, February 18, 2020 (UTC)

Production Error? Joke? Oddity?

At the end of the cold open, Lord Byron opens the door to the villa to reveal Team TARDIS and the Doctor instead of the feared "infernal beast".

All 8 characters scream and react in shock at the "sudden appearance"... Except, the doors Byron open clearly have windows.

Granted, it is dark outside. But it wasn't THAT much brighter inside, meaning everyone would have been able to see, most likely.

Would this be a production error? Or is it just me being mildly annoyed at the hammy overreactions?

First episode of a three-parter? Really?

At some point after the airing of The Power of the Doctor, someone went back and edited all of the story numbers to indicate that The Haunting of Villa Diodati is the first episode in a three-parter. Was there a discussion on this topic that I missed? I haven't seen the episode referred to as such in any official sources. BigRockCola 06:49, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
