There is no separate entity called the Could've Been King mentioned by the Doctor. This is a result of a mishearing of the Doctor's dialogue. The Doctor was referring to the Nightmare Child "that could have been king." This can be verified by watching the End of Time Part episode with closed captions/subtitles turned on. The following is an exact quote of the Doctor's dialogue: "But if the time lock's broken then everything's coming through; not just the Daleks but the Skaros Degradations; the Horde of Travesties; the Nightmare Child, that could have king with his army of Meanwhilds and Never-Weres..." Please note the very deliberate and precise use of the semicolon punctuation between the Skaros Degradations and the Horde of Travesties that indicates they are separate entities and the switch to a comma after the Nightmare Child that shows the Doctor was referring the Nightmare Child as the would-be king. This can be verified by watching a DVD or Blu-ray copy of this episode with subtitles. In short, this entry for the Could've Been King should be deleted and the related entries updated to reflect that the Doctor was referring to the Nightmare Child.[[Special:Contributions/67.247.26.212|67.247.26.212]] 04:11, March 7, 2010 (UTC)Peter Lee
