10th and 5th possible appearance in the episode

In the the imbd entry that's about this episode, Tennant and Davidson are casted to appear in this episode, which could possibly mean that the 10th and 5th doctor make appearence in this episode. Yet it isn't considered as a cranted, could this be atleast atted to the myths? Vilinder 19:30, May 29, 2011 (UTC)

Nope, neither. IMDB is on our blacklist, meaning we can't link to it. The reason for this is because people can insert false information to IMDB and therefore it can mean out sources and what we put on this wiki can be false. Mini-mitch\talk 19:33, May 29, 2011 (UTC)
Actually, that imbd entry is about the final episode of the series, not this one Lord Aro 12:25, May 30, 2011 (UTC)

Cybermen

The word in the infobox doesn't link to the Cybermen page.Zodisgod 21:42, May 30, 2011 (UTC)

I know, and for good reason. We don't know what Cybermen are in the episode. They could be either Mondas Cybermen or Cybus Cybermen. Mini-mitch\talk 22:12, May 30, 2011 (UTC)
Look at the plates on their chest, it hasn't got a 'C' on it, instead it's got a circle.
They must be the Mondasian Cybermen, look at this picture: Cortion 16:42, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

No, they could be another variant, and stop adding spoiler pictures. I've deleted that image about three times today.----Skittles the hog--Talk 16:52, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Doesn't this wiki contain spoilers? Cortion 17:09, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

In special places. See: Tardis:Spoiler policy for more.----Skittles the hog--Talk 17:11, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Enemies

No confirmation that Cybermen, Sontarans & Silurians are enemies. TemporalSpleen 16:30, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Added a reference at the bottom of the list (next to "Eye Patch Lady") but it counts for all of them.----Skittles the hog--Talk 16:38, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Yes well done you have added a source that states these will appear in the episode but in no way what so ever does it state that they will be enemies in the episode, therefore it needs removing unless stated otherwise -- Michael Downey 19:15, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Why? They've appeared as enemies in the past so it's only natural people will think they are enemies. If they appeared in any toher episode, people would assume they are the enemies. It's not changing till we have confirmation they are not enemies, until then we go with what we know. They've always been enemies so why not this time? Mini-mitch\talk 19:19, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
Because we have no facts or evidence to say they are against the doctor at all and there are more sources on the internet that show they are on the doctor and rory's side than anything else. I think for argument sake they should just be left on the cast list until it IS ACTUALLY confirmed! -- Michael Downey 19:22, May 31, 2011 (UTC)
There is no confirmation that they are on the Doctor's side, just speculation. Mini-mitch\talk 19:28, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

I agree with User:Michael Downey as the synopsis states he's collecting soldiers from long-founded debts. To me this implies his former enemies. I suggest we remove them from the enemies list and put them in story notes as reappearances.----Skittles the hog--Talk 20:05, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

I've just been looking at TV guides for a confirmation of the returning monsters being allies, although I'm sure I read it somewhere I had no luck in finding it. Since we have nothing to support either arguement, I am in favour of just leaving the monsters off the enemies section of the infobox and leaving them in the cast list until broadcast. --Revan\Talk 20:13, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Moved them to continuity. I left the "eye patch lady" there as she's a confirmed baddie.----Skittles the hog--Talk 20:26, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

River and Amy Dying

The two rumours about River and Amy dying in this episode have already been proven false as they have been seen in filming for all the other episodes of this series. River appears in episode 8 and 13 and Amy appears in all except episode 12. -- Michael Downey 19:13, May 31, 2011 (UTC)


Also River can not die in this episode, as she the events that take place in it are in her past in Forest of the Dead, and she must live on to that time.The preceding unsigned comment was added by 195.195.166.57 (talk • contribs) .

History can be rewritten. (DW: The Unquiet Dead) It's a major theme, but please don't speculate on this here.----Skittles the hog--Talk 20:08, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Spoilers removed

I am all in favour in having myths displayed on the page but I think the rumour regarding river being amys daughter should be removed as it is too much of a big spoiler for the page. Also the myth regarding rivers identity will be revealed should be removed as karen gillan and pete hoar have confirmed her identity will be revealed in interviews, therefore it's not really a myth it's fact. -- Michael Downey 19:20, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Any rumour can be regarded as "too big". Remember, they have filmed false scenes, meaning that it could be a red herring. As for River's identity, it's still a spoiler, a spoiler is a spoiler until the episode airs. Mini-mitch\talk 19:29, May 31, 2011 (UTC)

Prequel

The Prequel episode revealed that Amy's child was fathered by The Doctor.
