Easter Island

Easter Island was located in the Pacific Ocean[source needed], and had statues of the Eleventh Doctor after he and River Song visited. (TV: The Impossible Astronaut)

The Fourth Doctor and Leela went to Easter Island in 1872. (PROSE: Eye of Heaven)

River Song said the Eleventh Doctor was worshipped there when they visited it. (TV: The Impossible Astronaut)

The Eleventh Doctor made note of this island to Clara Oswald while they were in the town of Christmas on Trenzalore, responding to her question 'how can a town be called Christmas?', he asked 'how can an island be called Easter?' (TV: The Time of the Doctor)

Behind the scenes

  • Though not clarified in The Time of the Doctor, Easter Island was named as such because it was discovered by European explorers on Easter Sunday.
  • The statues mentioned by River are known in the real world are Moai.
