Talk:Frontier in Space (TV story)

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Setting[[edit source]]

I haven't gotten as far as watching this yet (maybe tomorrow), but I can't help but notice this Wikia page lists the setting as being the year 2540 whereas the DVD case says 2450. Did someone have a dyslexic moment or is the box incorrect? DigiFluid 04:21, July 5, 2010 (UTC)

The Bell Of Tibet[[edit source]]

"Delgado died in a car accident when the chauffeur-driven vehicle ran off the road and fell into a ravine, during the on-location shoot for the film Bell of Tibet, cancelled following his and two film technician's demises."

This old chestnut again. It wasn't a film, it was a French tv series, and it was completed. Delgado features heavily in part 4.

Another Production Error - What Happened To The Gun?[[edit source]]

At the very end, outside the TARDIS, Jo is clutching a gun. After she's helped the Doctor into the TARDIS, the gun has gone. Obviously two production blocks over a month apart.165.225.80.225talk to me 11:24, February 27, 2018 (UTC)

The Master's Alias - new find[[edit source]]

Some new production photos from rehearsals of Frontier in Space have been unearthed here.

  • "One small but intriguing detail is revealed for the first time by the pictures. The Master often used aliases (Emil Keller, Reverend Magister, Professor Thascales etc), but in Frontier in Space he was posing as the unnamed Commissioner for Sirius Four."
  • "However, although never spoken or seen on screen, a specific name was dreamt up by the production team. And that name was G R Xsathos – legible in this close-up detail of a document bearing the Master’s fake credentials, held by actor Michael Hawkins."

Do we think this could be added into the list of the Master's alias/fake names, or not, based on this? (Cross-posted to the Master's Alias talk page too.) Fractal Doctor 11:13, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
