On the Face of Boe, Boekind, Boemina and Lifespan pages, they all credit the non-Face of Boe Boekind as living for 40 years, cited to TV: The Long Game. Where in the episode did it say this? Are we absolutely certain it was there, and not some monster reference book?– The preceding unsigned comment was added by 94.2.154.27 (talk • contribs) .

Looking through the subtitles for the The Long Game, the only thing I see is: "Over on the Bad Wolf channel, The Face of Boe has just announced he's pregnant." The Boemina aren't named as such, Boekind aren't even mentioned, and there's nothing about their lifespan. In New Earth we learn that "The rest of Boekind became extinct, long ago," but that doesn't tell us the Boemina died in 200040, just that they're not immortal. --173.228.85.118 00:30, July 28, 2011 (UTC)

It may not have appeared in dialogue, but I can pretty clearly recall "Boemina" appearing on a graphic on the the Bad Wolf TV channel (albeit very briefly and absolutely NOTHING was said about "six children"). -- Tybort (talk page) 17:25, July 28, 2011 (UTC)]]

Okay, removed all references to the Boemina, at least on those abovementioned pages. -- Tybort (talk page) 18:43, July 28, 2011 (UTC)

"Boemina" are mentioned in REF: Doctor Who: The Visual Dictionary, no mention of six children that lived for 40 years though. --MrThermomanPreacher 18:48, July 28, 2011 (UTC)

As they are in The Long Game, if fleetingly. Bad choice of words; I didn't literally mean ALL references. -- Tybort (talk page) 19:07, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
