I know the Firebird Trilogy had not been written when the story aired...

...but is there an in-universe reason why the master computer did not simply have someone from that 'verse appear and put the Doctor, Jamie, and Zoë under voice-command and make them submit? The Land of Fiction includes every story ever, you know. Tawaki 04:15, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

It can be argued that the events of episodes 2-5 are a dream by the Doctor...

Very interesting. I would really like to know about

  • who has made this argument,
  • why they thought this was the case,
  • whether it's been interpreted in this way in any other source, like a reference in any other episode or other media?, and
  • how this perspective on the story might be useful. (I can see bits and bobs of this last part in the paragraph that is currently there, but it doesn't quite come together for me.)

More details please! the angel Jean - Smith's little elf 09:06, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
