One last bit of love for Rory[[edit source]]

A neat bit of trivia, but not sure that it would belong on the page proper: If Rory was 31 when sent back in time (to 1938), and died when he was 82, he would have died the year Amy was born, and the year that the original series was cancelled: 1989. d · 14:48, October 12, 2012 (UTC)

I haven't followed the debate that closely, but has it been established (with sources) that they went back specifically to 1938? Shambala108 00:08, October 13, 2012 (UTC)
It hasn't. And it's also been pointed out that the tombstone looks rather old for something that supposedly dates to the late 1980s. All we know is that Amy was still alive at the time the novel was written (that or River located her in time in order for her to write the forward). It's possible the novella The Angel's Kiss might shed some light. 70.72.211.35talk to me 15:37, November 18, 2012 (UTC)

First Time Together on the TARDIS[[edit source]]

The italicized text is a little absurd. Are we really going with the literal interpretation of the Doctor's words? He was obviously referring to the first time Amy and Rory had sex on the TARDIS.--Trebligoniqua 04:00, January 30, 2013 (UTC)


"The Pretty One"[[edit source]]

There is an error in the main aliases for Rory Williams. It indicates that he was known as "The pretty one". That actually refers to the character in the Eleventh Hour who had the laptop. When told by Amy that she was getting married The Doctor asks "The pretty one or..." and makes the sign with his hand indicating the guy with the big nose and says "the other one?" She says "The other one".

Hope this helps.

While you are right, I think this is referring to Idris calling him that. The Doctor thinks she's referring to Amy, specifically because of what you mentioned. Anyways, I hope this answers your question. SmallerOnTheOutside.png SOTO 02:39, February 11, 2013 (UTC)
Smaller is right. The reference comes from The Doctor's Wife (TV story). OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 02:48, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

It doesn't matter though, because according to Forum:Notable Aliases it shouldn't be in the infobox in the first place. Shambala108 03:06, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

Iris considered "The Pretty One" to be Rory's name. Thus it is an alias. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 03:09, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

She doesn't think it's Rory's name, she's asking which one's Amy:

DOCTOR: Can you get a message to Amy? The telepathic circuits are online.
IDRIS: Which one's Amy? The pretty one?

It's not notable and it's not used more than once, so by the forum guidelines, it should be removed. Shambala108 03:28, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

Check again.

Rory: It's like I'm getting a masage
Idris: Hello Pretty
Doctor: No, that's rory
Blah Blah Blah
The Doctor: The Pretty One?!? OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 03:53, February 11, 2013 (UTC)

Species[[edit source]]

Under species it says 'human' shouldn't there be an auton reference here?The preceding unsigned comment was added by 108.246.48.79 (talk).

No. The species field of the infobox can only take one name, and it has been decided that we always put only the original species. Shambala108 02:59, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
