I was looking through some officially released scripts for series 12 and noticed an interesting line in the script for this episode. On the second page it says: "CAPTION: NIAGARA FALLS. JULY. 1903." For some reason, this caption is not present in the episode. Is the script considered a valid source?

:'fraid not, at least not in these circumstances. It's a behind-the-scenes document, not an independent way to tell a story, so it fails Rule 1 ''and'' Rule 2 of [[Tardis:Valid sources|T:VS]]. Things which appear in the script but didn't make it to the final cut are held to be "deleted scenes". --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 11:03, May 28, 2020 (UTC) | :'fraid not, at least not in these circumstances.

:: …But now, we can lay the matter to rest thanks to [[PROSE]]: ''[[History's Finest (short story)|History's Finest]]'' from the Official Annual 2021, which explicitly places Tesla's encounter with the Doctor in 1903. Phew. --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 11:47, September 24, 2020 (UTC) | |||
