Talk:Vincent and the Doctor (TV story)

Valeyard???

Where did the rumor about the Valeyard appearing in this episode come from? Has anyone else heard about this?

I believe that was just someone's conclusion from Bill Nighy's appearnace. To me, he appears to be a perfect candidate for being the Valeyard too (and he supposedly plays "the doctor of art"... remember what the Valeyard meant?) But it's still just a speculation, and most likely very false one. 109.243.23.78 13:41, April 1, 2010 (UTC)

It's not Bill Nighy's appearance, it's Tim Jones. He has the exact same clothes as the Doctor, but he looks, well, different. I think he will be in "Amy's Choice" personally, as Steven Moffat talked of a "Dream Master" to appear in it.

Reason for suicide

The Van Gogh story is set in Provence, ie historically within the last 2 years of Van Gogh's life prior to him fatally shooting himself after experiencing severe undiagnosed depression / mental illness. During this period he did works for the 'Decoration of the Yellow House', and the Curtis rumour is that in the episode Van Gogh attacks a yellow monster. Any connection? Also, is this hinting at a possible explanation here for contributory factors to his suicide? 86.26.137.154 08:04, April 14, 2010 (UTC)

Doctor-Lite Episode?

I've heared that The Lodger is the Amy-lite epeisode, so reason tells me that Vincent and the Doctor is the Doctor-lite one. Is this true? I mean, I've seen clips of the Doctor from this episode, but the synopis seems to comfirm that it is at least from Amy's point of view. Any ideas? MidnightCat 17:12, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

I don't think this episode is a Doctor-lite, I don't think season has one this season. I've seen clips of this from the trailer and it shows alot of the doctor being involved. :) -- Michael Downey 17:45, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
