Table for References
I started to make a table for all the references here. It's not completed, but just looking for opinions as to whether it could be slotted into the article or not. -- Lost Soul talk contribs email 10:30, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
- It's very good, but the problem is, it's out-of-universe and I doubt that it could be not. ~ Ghelæ -talk-contribs
- Probably not. Perhaps you could turn it into a list about BW occurances in the Doctor's lifetime, e.g:
| Image | Date | Reference |
|---|---|---|
|
5,000,000,000 AD | The Moxx of Balhoon mentions to the Face of Boe the "classic Bad Wolf scenario." |
|
1869 | When the clairvoyant Gwyneth reads Rose's mind, she says, "The things you've seen... the darkness.. the Big Bad Wolf!" |
Bad Wolf and The Invasion
Is the message on Isobel Watkins' wall canon? And if so, was it meant for the Doctor's eyes or did Rose send it to the wrong place and time? - Tawaki 19:14, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
- I like to think of it as the Bad Wolf literally re-writing time, which is what resulted in the reconstruction of the episode. The message was almost certainly meant for the Doctor, one of a few early hints to embed it in his mind and help ensnare and guide him. Don't forget, the Bad Wolf references continued into Series 3 and returned at the end of Series 4.--TheOmnius 17:47, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
- Why has it been moved to behind the scenes? It's part of an official release and therefore canon. It should be moved back to be part of the timeline.--TheOmnius 20:41, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
- I don't think it counts as canon because that element did not appear in the original broadcast. otherwise you have two perfectly canon versions of two episodes of the The Invasion. I think the original version with Patrick Troughton counts more than a recreation done nearly forty years later, by different people. --Stardizzy2 21:31, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
Adherents of the Repeated Meme
Oh come on. Shouldn't this be mentioned? Because what is the message "Bad Wolf"? A repeated meme. ZeldaTheSwordsman 17:43, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
