It says that Rose calles Cassandra Michael Jackson. But when i whatched i was under the impression she was refering to Cal MacNannovich as that was where the camera pointed at when she said it.
No, it pointed to Cassandra. Rose also said "talk to the family" refering to the fact Cassandra called herself a human.--Torchwood 2 21:56, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
- I have removed "Michael Jackson" from the aliases section (though it remains in the article text). This was not an alias, but a one-off epithet. -Porlob 22:04, February 4, 2011 (UTC)
Why .Δ17?
All official sources, like Monsters and Villains, spell it out as "Dot Delta Seventeen", not the symbols. Anthrcer 07:16, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
Companion?
Just a thought, but technically shouldn't Cassandra be considered one of the doctors companions. 09:22, 65.13.178.202 3 February 2010
- If you mean because she briefly travelled in the TARDIS, then no. Heaps of insignificant individuals took a trip in Earthshock. We would also have to look at the Family of Blood. --Nyktimos 18:36, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
Series 4?
Just a thought, but Cassandra can obviously be seen in the voyage of the damn ending depicting season 4. Why was this cut from the series and what was it originally meant to entail? This is not covered in the wiki so far. Is this a lost episode of dr who that was cut, or was this just a throw together preview for series 4 that never got filmed? Please someone help. I've been dying to know.
Homosexuality?
Since when was she a lesbian? BroadcastCorp (talk | contribs) 11:09, August 14, 2011 (UTC)
- Oh, yeah, forgot. LGBT stands for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender. She's the "T" part of it. Sorry about that. BroadcastCorp (talk | contribs) 13:48, August 23, 2011 (UTC)
Transgender?
I thought "since I was a little boy" line went hand-in-hand with Cassandra's other errors in memory re: classical music and iPods and such. I.e.: she was so old that her memory was failing her and she was attempting to bluff her way through with half-remembered knowledge.82.25.159.211 21:59, October 2, 2011 (UTC)
- I think since she's from the far far distant future she wouldn't know the difference between a Jukebox and an iPod. It's less of a memory thing and more of a history isn't always accurate thing. The "since I was a little boy" could be more of a culture disconnect than a forgotten knowledge thing. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 99.125.248.203 (talk).
- True, but as evidenced by her speaking when inhabiting/possessing Rose, she uses a lot of words wrong. I think that is part of her character, and until there is any verifiable evidence from a valid source that she was indeed born as a male, the fact that she is transgender should at least include a note stating that this may not be true.

- I'm pretty sure that line is intentional, on the part of the writers, as a way of showing that by Cassandra's time, gender isn't viewed in the same strict confines as it is in modern days. Compare it to when we meet Jack, in Empty Child/Doctor Dances, and the Doctor tells Rose that in his time, humankind 'dances' with everyone, regardless of gender. Unless we're shown explicitly otherwise, Cassandra should most certainly be listed as being a MTF transgender woman. BeneathThePlass ☎ 05:00, November 19, 2018 (UTC)
- No, she will be listed as whatever the story says, not whatever we outside of the story say. That's the way this wiki works. Shambala108 ☎ 05:11, November 19, 2018 (UTC)
- The story says she is Lady Cassandra, a woman, who was once a little boy. So there you have it. BeneathThePlass ☎ 05:13, November 19, 2018 (UTC)
- Let's stick to what the story tells us. We do recount that she says she was once a little boy. It's not relevant anywhere else in the article. And a villain characterised as having had too many surgeries, who's said to have lost their humanity along the way, would not be the best of representation, anyhow.

I don't think finding Delta is that difficult. At the top of the page, you can click on the more symbol and find delta after scrolling along the Greek line. However, if what Anthrcer syas about its official spelling in reference work being in fact Dot Delta Seventeen, then it should possibly be renamed that. -- Tybort (talk page) 14:21, March 14, 2012 (UTC)
