A star whale was a giant, space-borne creature.

Biology

Star whales resembled Earth's whales in basic structure. They had several flippers and tentacular protrusions down their stomach, as well as smaller, spiked tendrils on their back. Star whales travelled through space at speeds comparable to a spaceship. Though they could communicate in an atmosphere, their voices were too high-pitched for humans to hear. They were capable of bioluminescence and had glowing patterns around their tendrils. (DW: The Beast Below)

History

An ancient and benevolent species, star whales had, according to legend, guided early space travellers through dangers on their journeys through space. By the time of the 29th century, the species was believed to be save for one individual. When Earth faced destruction because of solar flares, that star whale was drawn to Earth. All the peoples of Earth had escaped in massive city ships, but the people of the United Kingdom lacked an engine. The star whale intended to offer its services to the stranded people.

Unfortunately, the people of the UK misinterpreted this gesture of good will as a lucky coincidence and captured it. They built their ship on its back and carved an opening to its brain to torture it into moving. The city built on its back became known as Starship UK. While the government realised the moral problem, they believed that if the Whale was freed, Starship UK would be destroyed, killing the population. To deal with this, every five years they revealed the truth to citizens one at a time and allowed them to vote on the matter, choosing either to "Forget" or "Protest". Forgetting meant their memories would be erased so they didn't have to live with the guilt. However, Protesting meant that that particular citizen would immediately be fed to the star whale. Every year the overwhelming majority of citizens chose to Forget. Similarly, Queen Elizabeth X (Liz Ten for short), whose body clock had been halted and who had ruled the British people for three hundred years, was faced with the choice to Forget or Abdicate every time she found out the truth. Abdication would free the Star Whale, but as previously stated, it was believed that this would destroy the Starship UK. It is unclear exactly how many times she discovered the truth, but every time, she too chose to Forget for the good of her people.

When the Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond came to Starship UK in the 33rd century, they investigated the ship. Along the way, Amy stumbled into a voting booth and learned the truth, only to choose to Forget. Eventually the Doctor discovered the heart of the ship, where Hawthorne and his workers were torturing the star whale with electric shocks to keep it moving, and faced the impossible situation. Seeing no reasonable options, the Doctor tried to render the Space Whale brain-dead so it would no longer feel pain from the torture, but would continue to support the ship. Amy, however, noticed the whale's neural tendrils affectionately playing with the children. She quickly put the pieces together and ran to the control system to press the "Abdicate" button with Liz Ten's hand, freeing the whale.

The ship, however, was not destroyed as was originally feared. Instead it started to move faster. As the star whale had come willingly and was still willing to help the people of the UK, it moved more swiftly <!doctype html> <html lang="en" dir="ltr"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=1200">

Tales from the Tardis

A word about Star Trek and Assimilation
Want to help us cover the upcoming Star Trek/Doctor Who comic crossover? Great! We need your help! However, note that <a href="/wiki/T:OFF_REL" title="T:OFF REL" class="mw-redirect">our spoiler policy</a> won't allow us to start editing until <a href="/wiki/30_May" title="30 May">30 May</a> <a href="/wiki/2012" title="2012">2012</a>. In the meantime, <a href="/wiki/Forum:ST/DW_crossover_comic:_technical_naming_restrictions" title="Forum:ST/DW crossover comic: technical naming restrictions">please read this important technical announcement.</a>
Namespace color coding
We've recently color-coded namespaces to make it easier for you to tell which <a href="/wiki/Namespace" title="Namespace" class="mw-redirect">namespace</a> you're in. This'll help you instantly recognise the difference between <a href="/wiki/Writer" title="Writer">writer</a>, <a href="/wiki/Property:Writer" title="Property:Writer">property:writer</a> and <a href="/wiki/Talk:Writer" title="Talk:Writer">talk:writer</a>, amongst other things. There are also some technical advantages to making certain namespaces render primarily with certain fonts. This will also allow us to help people avoid spoilers, since <a href="/wiki/Forum:River_Song?action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Forum:River Song (page does not exist)" rel="nofollow">Forum:River Song</a>, if it existed, would be even more obviously a different place to <a href="/wiki/Howling:River_Song" title="Howling:River Song">Howling:River Song</a>. <a href="/wiki/Forum:Color/font_coding_of_namespaces" title="Forum:Color/font coding of namespaces">Read all about it.</a>
What happened to the brackets, man?

Have you've noticed that some infobox variables, like {{{species}}} and {{{main actor}}} suddenly don't have brackets around them any more? This isn't a mistake. This is because they are being automatically linked by the template, so that we can create a truly powerful database. Please do not link these variables, or it will create an error that looks like this: Matt Smith. <a href="/wiki/T:SMW" title="T:SMW" class="mw-redirect">Read more about powerful new tools that are being built</a>.

See what's hidden!

After a few months of being away, the option to see hidden categories has returned to Special:Preferences. <a href="/wiki/Forum:Ability_to_see_hidden_categories_re-added_to_Special:Preferences" title="Forum:Ability to see hidden categories re-added to Special:Preferences">Read the whole story!</a>

How are your table-making skills?

All editors: please take two minutes to read <a href="/wiki/Forum:Tables_need_headers" title="Forum:Tables need headers">this bit of advice about proper creation of tables.</a>

What's up with the search bar?

Are you confused by the behavior of the search bar lately? Do you wish it would just settle down and work like it used to? If so, <a href="/wiki/Forum:Searching_is_undergoing_a_massive,_Wikia-driven_change" title="Forum:Searching is undergoing a massive, Wikia-driven change">read this message</a>.

Performance fixes

A number of subtle changes have been made to the wiki which should improve performance of those on slightly older browsers. You should be finiding that scrolling down pages will be a bit less laggy — if you ever noticed there was lag at all. People on the very latest browsers will probably not experience any noticeable performance boosts, unless they're running a lot of programs at once. If you're still experiencing any issues with the site being laggy versus other wikia sites, please clear your cache, try again, then <a href="/wiki/User_talk:CzechOut" title="User talk:CzechOut">let CzechOut know</a> if the problem persists. </p>

Dates of Big Finish releases

If you're a digital subscriber to Big Finish, we need your help! As was recently confirmed in the Big Finish podcast, their website always falsely lists the date of release of every CD as the last day of the month. But the actual release is not the end of the month. Digital subscribers receive the product on something we can accept as the "actual" release date. This date should be added to the infobox as the {{{release date}}}. Since the actual release date is both irregular and unknown, <a href="/wiki/Admin" title="Admin" class="mw-redirect">admin</a> cannot reliably unprotect the articles without your help. Please give one of us a nudge to unblock the page on the date you receive it.

Monobook finally finished

By and large, the multi-month project to style the monobook skin is now complete. If you've never looked at the wiki in the monobook skin, go to <a href="/wiki/Special:Preferences" title="Special:Preferences">Special:Preferences</a>, and scroll down to the skin option on the first page. Why are we so late styling a skin from half a decade ago? Um, because.

Skin change button

All editors are enouraged to <a href="/wiki/Forum:Easy_switching_between_monobook,_wikia_and_wikiamobile" title="Forum:Easy switching between monobook, wikia and wikiamobile">install the new skin change button</a> so that they can easily check out the way the site looks in all three skins — monobook, wikia, and the new wikiamobile. No matter what skin you normally use to edit, it's particually important to make sure that our edits look great in wikia and wikiamobile, since these are by far the skins with which most readers see the site.

New to editing the wiki?

Thanks for helping us out! We're glad you're here. We've recently made it a bit easier to understand how we do things.

If you're wondering why your recently-uploaded image might have been deleted, you might want to read <a href="/wiki/T:ICC" title="T:ICC" class="mw-redirect">our image cheat card</a>. It lists the major points of image policy in an easy-to-read chart, and will help you ensure that your image remains a part of our database.

You'll also want to peruse a few of our policies about basic editing, such as:

  • <a href="/wiki/T:LEADS" title="T:LEADS" class="mw-redirect">why it's important articles have leads</a>
  • <a href="/wiki/T:BOLD_TEXT" title="T:BOLD TEXT" class="mw-redirect">why and when you should embolden the page title</a>
  • <a href="/wiki/T:SOURCES" title="T:SOURCES" class="mw-redirect">what kind of sources you can use for your article</a>
  • <a href="/wiki/T:TENSES" title="T:TENSES" class="mw-redirect">why writing in the past tense is vital for in-universe articles</a>
  • <a href="/wiki/T:MARK" title="T:MARK" class="mw-redirect">how to use the wiki markup "language"</a>

Refresh your cache often

The wiki continues to undergo a complete facelift. As the new style sheet is being implemented, you may see some untidy signs of construction. Thanks for your patience as we remodel. If you want to see the latest changes, you'll probably have to bypass your browser's cache. Safari users merely need to reload pages. Firefox users just have to hold down SHIFT, then press the reload button. Chrome users can press Ctrl + F5. Those using other browsers should check their help files for specific instructions.

Alternately, you can now just pull down the "edit" menu to refresh, and that should perform an automatic purge for you.

Behind the scenes

  • The "whale call" of the star whale is identical to that of the "Cash Cow" from the Torchwood episode Meat. While this is likely a simple reuse of sound effects, it could imply a relation between the two creatures despite noticeable morphological differences. Both episodes are noteworthy for focusing on human abuse of sentient species.
