Story notes

  • This episode was incorrectly entitled Cyber War and Enemies of a Time Lord.
  • In a released clip by the Doctor Who website Rory quoted the Doctor as saying that "The universe was huge and ridiculous and sometimes there were miracles" and added "I could do with a ridiculous miracle right now" to a seemingly dead Amy.
  • In a interview with Matt Smith he said, "There is a scene with a character who comes back its someone very significant."[7]
  • The title is most likely a reference to the TARDIS's explosion on 26/06/2010. (DW: Flesh and Stone)
  • Both the date of the in-universe 'unidentified explosion' and the real-world date of broadcast is 26/06/2010.
  • The Pandorica and a Stone Dalek will appear in the museum that Amelia visits.

Rumours

  • Some fans speculate that the unknown, sinister voice heard in the previous episode was, in fact, Omega. Spoilerists reveal that he may make an appearance coming towards the end, and will play a larger role in series 6. A pair of black, Omega-like gauntlets and armour might appear in this episode, whether worn (by him) or not is unknown. http://io9.com/5570394/bluehinters-doctor-who-spoilers
  • Many fans have speculated that during this episode, the Doctor will travel back along his own time stream to the events earlier in Series 5. One example of this is during Flesh and Stone, when the Doctor appears wearing a jacket after the one he was previously wearing was removed by the angels. According to spoilers of people who saw the script, this is true.
  • As most of the enemies listed and seen in The Pandorica Opens should have been defeated or should have not existed during 102 A.D (For example the Silurians, that should be under the earth), it is rumoured that something must have brought them all to the same time zone and place in order for all of them to join up together. The Daleks have already shown that they can use Time Corridors. They may have used this to help the Alliance to travel to this timezone DW: Resurrection of the Daleks. They were also capable of time travel technology. DW: The Chase
  • As noticed in timelord50.blogspot.com/2010/06/did-you-notice.html. Several shots of Amy's house from DW: The Eleventh Hour, which shows, that the outside of the house has 2 storeys, but there are 2 sets of stairs. Similar to DW: The Lodger. This could mean a second perception filter. Which could be reveal something else hidden, during this episode. On the other hand, the house does have a roof and the stairs could just lead to the loft, and another note is that River looked up those stairs in DW: The Pandorica Opens but saw nothing interesting, so it is obvious there is no perception filter.
  • The Slitheen will return. They didn't appear in the former episode, but were mentioned, they might appear in The Big Bang.
