Which, come to think of it, gives us a side-stepping out:  this is the current Ian's take on what he remembers. Watcha think? [[User:Boblipton|Boblipton]] 02:56, August 23, 2011 (UTC)

:The precise wording of the quote is:
:''"This couple in Cambridge, both professors; Ian and Barbara Chesterton. Rumour has it they've never aged. Not since the 60s."''
:That was sort of my concern, the other stuff like ''Power of the Daleks'' which has Tom Baker remembering something as the Fourth Doctor and that was only the cassette version.
:Boblipton's idea of a sidestep is…nice, but involves some mental hoop-jumping to make work.
:The quote can be interpreted in any number of ways, but at its purest the statement is, Ian and Babs are professors, that bit is presented as fact, everything after the word "Rumour" is just that and we take it as a rumour until we ''see'' anything countering it or hear a definitive statement made by someone.
:So, as far as the SJA info goes, it's still '''rumour''' until proven otherwise. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 13:56, August 23, 2011 (UTC)
