* The "thirty-two minutes" line may also be a more complicated reference to the series as a whole. Series 6 is actually the thirty-second season of ''Doctor Who'', if the classic series is included. Additionally, one meaning of the word "minutes" is "an official record of the proceedings of a meeting". Therefore, the statement "You will be dead in thirty-two minutes" can also be interpreted to mean that at the conclusion of Season 32, the official record will show that the Doctor is dead. | |||
