Talk:Mummy on the Orient Express (TV story)
Everyone survived?
The doctor said to Clara that everyone could have died and he just told here the others are safe. He maybe only could teleport 3 (he, her, engine repair guy) people. Or am i wrong? 141.41.197.224talk to me 23:35, October 12, 2014 (UTC)
- He suggested that maybe he'd only saved Clara. The survival of the engineer says that that wasn't true. Duggy1138 ☎ 00:32, October 13, 2014 (UTC)
Portal References?
Someone might want to point out references to the video game series "Portal." The games take place in a scientific laboratory, where a computer named GLaDOS uses a human named Chell as a test subject with reckless abandon for safety, much as Gus does. The line about "grief counseling" being available is a clear nod, as the game includes the line, "Cake and grief counseling will be available after the test." (see [1] ). The train captain, "Quell," may be a nod to the name "Chell." 98.180.17.52talk to me 03:52, October 20, 2014 (UTC)
- Any references to non-DWU material must be intentional and sourced. If there's a source stating that the author intended for this reference to be made, it can be added. However, and this is a big however, such a reference, if it exists, would belong in story notes, not references. Shambala108 ☎ 04:11, October 20, 2014 (UTC)
- And that's exactly why I left it on the talk page, so that someone who knew what he or she was doing could deal with it appropriately. 98.180.17.52talk to me 02:30, October 25, 2014 (UTC)
I don't know where to put this on the page, if at all, because I'm not sure how "canon" it is. I figured this was suitable for "Production Notes", but it's more trivia than notes . . . According to Jamie Matheson's (i.e. the writer's) blog [2], there was a prop on set which did appear on camera which said the train was travelling to the "seven wonders of the world", and listed them. Even if it's not in the script and isn't in dialogue, I wonder if it is still canon. The List of Wonders is: - The Fortress of Riskar - The Titans of Mereosh - The Walking Woods - Catacombs of the Whispering Dead - the Hanging Lands of Ariam - Echoland Hollow - The Diamond Falls If it's not suitable for the page, at least it's here Kelnius @ http://absurdwordnerd.blogspot.com.au ☎ 08:44, March 27, 2015 (UTC)
