**Behind the scenes, it was a matter of "okay, what haven't we turned into something else?"; since costumes of older, non-CGI aliens would be taken apart and remodeled for other purposes; with Slitheen being repainted green for a branch family and then orange for the [[Slitheen-Blathereen family]] | |||
* In the fairy tale of the Pandorica, the Doctor is not the good wizard. Rather he is a "nameless, terrible thing soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos...[who would] just drop out of the sky and tear down your world". While the Doctor considers himself non-violent, his [[The Doctor's aliases|name]] means "warrior" in the native tongue of the [[Gamma Forests]], and he is specifically referred to as such in the story of the Pandorica. "There was a goblin or a trickster. Or a warrior."
