:It's by no means the goofiest thing a human scientist has ever been able to accomplish in ''[[Doctor Who]]''. Maybe the ooze is alien in origin and Einstein found it. Maybe it reacted with the time bridge created by the TARDIS accident and his own time machine in some way. But if mildly difficult and underexplained scifi plot points were on their own enough to de-canonise a ''Doctor Who'' story, we'd lose at least half of them. — [[User:Rob T Firefly|Rob T Firefly]] - '''[[User talk:Rob T Firefly|Δ]][[Special:Contributions/Rob T Firefly|∇]]''' - 17:21, October 2, 2011 (UTC) | :It's by no means the goofiest thing a human scientist has ever been able to accomplish in ''[[Doctor Who]]''.

Most of the dialogue's okay, but the plot doesn't make any sense at all. Still, if we decided that episodes can be declared non canon because there plots don't make sense, then we'd lose, ''Ghost Light'', ''The Curse of Fenric'', and several other episodes. The only possible reason to declare this non canon would be that it was written by a group of children. Does anybody know if Moffat or the BBC considers this canon, because that is what really matters.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] <sup>[[User talk:Icecreamdif|talk to me]]</sup> 20:44, October 2, 2011 (UTC) | |||

We don't know enough to place this in a specific point in the timeline. The current "Timeline" section in this article represents the best guesses with all the available data, but we can't really pin it down to when it definitely occurs for the Doctor. — [[User:Rob T Firefly|Rob T Firefly]] - '''[[User talk:Rob T Firefly|Δ]][[Special:Contributions/Rob T Firefly|∇]]''' - 17:26, October 2, 2011 (UTC) | We don't know enough to place this in a specific point in the timeline.
