Talk:The Beginning (audio story)

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Featured[[edit source]]

The intro to this story states that both Susan and the Doctor are featured. This seems inconsistent with many other Companion Chronicles where the Doctor is not listed as featured even though he might be given words (read by the companion). Carole Ann Ford is also not billed as performing for the Doctor in the cast. Is this a mistake? Or are other Companion Chronicle pages mistaken not to feature the Doctor? Or is there a more subtle policy at play?Amorkuz 21:08, October 27, 2015 (UTC)

Based on a discussion in the Panopticon and lack of objections here, I removed the mention of the Doctor as being featured.

Infobox: times on the Moon[[edit source]]

Currently, the infobox only mentions the time of the arrival of the Doctor and Susan to the Moon (around the time the life on Earth began). However, the second half of the audio happens 450 millions years later in the future (I cannot remember any definitive time references). It is a future because there is a moonbase at this time. I am not sure how to codify such an uncertain future time placement, but the current information is incomplete.Amorkuz 23:04, November 4, 2015 (UTC)

Moving the unsourced uncredited cast here until it is properly sourced. Shambala108 03:09, May 28, 2016 (UTC)

Uncredited cast[[edit source]]

I've relistened to the CD extras (download variant) to no avail. Alas, it is not stated there. Some snooping around the Internet shows various forums, where people claim (without sourcing) that it was her. Vortex #57 does not seem to help either. Lisa Bowerman's own website does not list this as an acting role. The only other thing I can think of is listening to the Big Finish podcasts from this time. But since it is not immediately clear which of them is relevant, it could take too much time to listen to them all, time that I cannot invest into this. It is also possible that Bowerman mentioned this out of the blue in some unrelated podcast or interview. Amorkuz 10:04, May 28, 2016 (UTC)
Oh, and there is a possibility that she is credited on the CD packaging: those are often more complete than the website cast lists. Amorkuz 10:11, May 28, 2016 (UTC)
