  • General Sanchez is heard saying "Ladies and gentlemen, we are at war." This was last said by Captain Jack Harkness in The Parting Of The Ways.

Story notes

This episode was the last of Series 4 to have its title revealed.

  • This is the third time that the Daleks have returned with a leader in a finale. In the 2005 finale, The Parting of the Ways, the Daleks were led by the Dalek Emperor and in 2006 finale, Doomsday, Dalek Sec led the Cult of Skaro. The Other Dalek two parter in 2007 Series was shown as the 4th & 5th Episodes of the Series (Daleks in Manhattan and Evolution of the Daleks). The Daleks were the Cult of Skaro.
  • Davros refers to Donna Noble, Martha Jones, Rose Tyler, and possibly the minor companions as The Children Of Time.
  • Sarah Jane Smith has already had past experience in dealing and/or fighting against Davros with The Doctor, albeit in his fourth incarnation. However Sarah Jane could be the one with the knowledge about how to destroy Davros and the circumstances on which he came to Earth. She may prove vital in the battle to come.

Rumours

  • The Children Of Time are the Doctor's companions, who have traveled in time but not as long as the Daleks, Davros, the Doctor etc, hence the term "Children". This means Rose, Mickey, Martha, Donna and possibly Sarah Jane and Captain Jack Harkness.
  • It is rumored Davros speedily created the new Dalek race by using a progenation machine similar to the one shown in The Doctor's Daughter or a cloning machine.
  • As the Daleks invade UNIT, Martha Jones manages to escape using a teleport, which takes her to New York.
  • The Eighth-Ninth Doctor Regeneration is explained.
  • Planets disappearing has been a recurring theme in series 4 and now that the Earth has been 'stolen' it appears to be the next one.
  • The Judoon are the guards for the Shadow Proclamation.
  • According to Digital Spy, a female that we know very well will be exterminated in this episode. However, this extermination might not be permanent, due to the fact that we are unaware of any of the three major companions (Rose, Donna, Martha) being absent in Journey's End. However, Digital Spy never said the word 'companion', so it is possible that it is someone else that we know very well. (In 'Doctor Who Mag' Elizabeth Sladen says something about how Journeys End could be the last time she meets the doctor...But this also buts conflict with the second series of SJA)
  • Donna Noble is revealed to be a Time Lord (yeah right)
  • Earth has been moved to another location (Hence the title Stolen Earth)
  • A total of 27 planets have been stolen.
  • Davros is taking over planets to use them as cloning planets like the sontaran's cloning planets.
  • This will show every companions point of view but they will not meet up untill a member of the shadow proclamation (garded by the Judoon) summons the doctor and the companions near the end or the shadow proclamation member tell the doctor to build an army.
