For which episode?

We need to cite a source that says this was meant for Angels Take Manhattan. Chibnall did not write that episode, Moffat did, so one would assume that Moffat would have written P.S. All the online sources I've seen have either been ambiguous or have said this was for the end of Power of Three (making its cut make sense as it would have blown the ending of Angels Take Manhattan). 70.72.211.35talk to me 12:43, October 13, 2012 (UTC)

The page doesn't say what it was "meant" for. Just that this webcast was put up after Angels Take Manhattan aired, which it was. -- Tybort (talk page) 13:51, October 13, 2012 (UTC)
Actually, it does say that currently under Story Notes. If it is to be left there, a source would be appropriate. Spreee 19:39, October 13, 2012 (UTC)Spreee
Is the Chris Chibnall Twitter account his real account? I know it sometimes takes time for an account to be labeled as verified. If it is his actual account, he says in a tweet from yesterday, "The Brian scene: written to be a DVD extra, not an alternate ending to Angels Take Manhattan. Not filmed due to actor availability clash." Additionally, "The scene was written long before S7 transmission, same time as Pond Life."Mewiet 21:07, October 14, 2012 (UTC)

Are there webcasts for every episode? Or just this one? And can everyone outside the U.K. watch them? I'd love to see these!  :) Jay JLOMThings turn out for the best for the people who make the best of the way things turn out - John Wooden 09:25, October 14, 2012 (UTC)

Timeline

I'm a bit confused about the paragraph referencing the age discrepancy of Anthony. It seems to imply that The Power of Three took place before Dinosaurs on a Spaceship for Brian, which obviously isn't correct.     ǝsʞpɐןǝ  (talk page)  19:00, 16 October 2012

Dating the episode

in the continuity section of this article, it states this takes place in 2020 after power of three. however there is already enough controversy about the dating of power of three as can be seen at the howling thread Howling:Dating the Amy era. should we keep this statement about the date given the fact there is so much argument about whether it is accurate?

Not a valid source

It is a long-held belief of this wiki that unfinished works are not valid sources. By Chibnall's Twitter admission, this was a cancelled project, abandoned because of actor availability. What we're seeing are a series of storyboards for an unfinished project, and therefore it doesn't "count" when trying to write in-universe articles.

Yes, it may be referenced in the "behind the scenes" sections of articles, but along with the Eighth Doctor's regeneration in Endgame (graphic novel), the spider Dalek from The Dark Dimension, the "bit of TARDIS coral" scene from Journey's End, the unfinished televised version of Shada and other incomplete bits and pieces that have been made public by the BBC, this one is "officially released but invalid".

Hence, it will continue to fly the {{notdwu}} banner, and cannot be used as a source for other in-universe articles.
