Talk:The Zygon Inversion (TV story)

Discussion page
Revision as of 17:18, 9 November 2015 by 68.195.112.10 (talk) (→‎Invisible watch: new section)

References

The Doctor says "...and I mean that most sincerely", which was a catch phrase of Hughie Green (1920-1997), a UK quiz show host in the 1960's. The Doctor calls Zygon-Clara "Zygella", a refference to Nigella Lawson, who presents cooking shows on UK television. 81.102.208.118talk to me 15:26, November 8, 2015 (UTC)Ian Kirk

That's nice spotted, but not everything is a reference though. --DCLM 15:38, November 8, 2015 (UTC)
To expand on DCLM's point, if you don't have a valid source stating that the reference is intentional, it doesn't go on the page. In addition, the "References" section on all story pages is for things/people, etc that are mentioned or seen in stories. These references must link to pages on this wiki. "References" does not mean allusions to non-wiki material. Shambala108 15:45, November 8, 2015 (UTC)
An example of obvious reference is the Doctor sky-diving from Boat One with a parachute that has a Union Jack on it, being a reference to James Bond sky-diving in a parachute with a Union Jack on it in "The Spy Who Loved Me" (correct me if the title was wrong). --DCLM 16:07, November 8, 2015 (UTC)
But that still wouldn't go in the references section unless James Bond and/or the movie name were mentioned in the story. If the production team claims the reference, then it can be put in the "Story notes" section. Shambala108 01:21, November 9, 2015 (UTC)

Invisible watch

I assumed the invisible watch that was mention was a reference to the watch that made one invisible, used by Danny in the last series. But no? 68.195.112.10talk to me 17:18, November 9, 2015 (UTC)
