Howling:Omega

I read something on this wiki its just kind of rumor, knowing the paper it will just be untrue. But still I read Omega is gonna be the big bad for season 5. This is probably just a rumor but still how cool would that be and it would make sense Omega could be behind the cracks thats like what he did in the three doctors remember the black hole was eating stuff, maybe thats what the season final is gonna be the events and creatures that the cracks are eating are being taken to a place like that. Though I dont know what steven moffat could do that was really knew with it, he's a good writer though so I'm sure he could. Maybe it will be like the end of time and at the end he say's "Omega" to the big bad, if its Omega that could explain this whole design a TARDIS thing, though from what I read that might be explained by the lodger let me know what you think, do you guys think it will be Omega, and do you think it will be a good idea if it is Omega.

 * Please put your comments under the header instead of above them. (I fixed this one for you, and also got rid of a trailing "&nbsp" and a bunch of blank lines that somehow got inserted.)


 * Anyway, I think this belongs in the Howling, not the Panopticon.


 * But, more importantly, what paper did you read it in? If it's a sourceable rumor, you could actually add it to the "Rumours" sections for Series 5 (Doctor Who), Omega, and/or maybe the finale episodes. Even if it's, say, the Sun, who are usually wrong about everything and seem to get their "inside information" from 6-year-old kids on the street, it's worth mentioning. This wiki generally tries to record all prevalent rumors, even the ones that later turn out to be false, especially those that are actually published in a newspaper and "out in the wild" rather than just a handful of die-hard fans telling each other "I heard some guy on another forum said his brother's girlfriend's mom was working on the set and saw an alien with a big head so I'll bet it's a Sontaran". See the articles on the first 7 episodes for examples. --Falcotron 22:54, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * I think I read it on the article on this wiki about the big bang, but it looks like it was taken down so it was most likely a rumor. I know it was on this wiki so I'll try and track it down somewhere else on the internet and see if there was any truth to it or just someone writing on this wiki for fun., Winehousefan, 00:05 May 21, 2010 [UTC]


 * I looked back through the page history for the episode. There has been some information deleted (there was a rumor that the episode would take place in the Death Zone/Dark Tower; the cast included "Dorium", "TBA", "Claudio", and "Amy's Mother"; the categories included Cybus Cybermen stories), but none of it referred to Omega (and most of it was just copied from the page for The Pandorica Opens, which is probably why it was removed).


 * However, the Series 5 (Doctor Who) article contains the rumor "Omega could return after a video on YouTube said one of the set members mentioned him coming out of the Pandorica." This was added on 14 May by User:Raiden2 with no comment and no source. It's still there today, but with a "fact" tag added by User:RedRanger241 with the comment "We need the source from these, and I would really like to see them".


 * Since "a video on YouTube said one of the set members mentioned him..." isn't much of a useful source, especially without a link to the video (what is a "set member", who in particular, does the video show him saying it or just show some random fan saying he heard "a set member" saying it, ...). So, I wouldn't put too much stock in this. --Falcotron 00:05, May 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * Right thanks it probably is just a wild rumor like patrick stewart playing the monk so I certainly wont bother about it too much anymore. Though you never can tell with rumors, I mean a couple of years ago I thought that the whole Mister saxon thing was not true, but it was, also I never actually thought the rumor of winston churchill using Daleks to fight the Nazi's would be true but it was, I was even more surprised when that idea actually turned out a good story. Still lets not forget all the Rani rumors, the sun has probably reported the Rani back this year too like it has previous years. There might be some truth to it if there's at least a reasonable well know actor, I know julian bleech wasn't well known before he did Davros but most of the others have been, John Simm Sir Derek Jacobi and of course timothy dalton played rassilon, so if we find any info on well known actors being in the finale then that might give us a clue that at the very least something could be back maybe not Omega. |Winehousefan, 12:14, May, 21, 2010 [UTC]


 * Yeah, a well-justified rumor of a well-known actor playing an unspecified part, that might be good reason to believe that someone "important" is coming back.


 * But I still wouldn't necessarily assume it's someone like Omega or the Rani. Every kid who grew up in England from the 1960s to the 1980s knows who the Master is, and most of them have at least heard of "the seal of Rassilon" or something related to him. But Omega and the Rani, only real fans know who they are. When you go to Mr. Big Actor's Hollywood agent at CAA and say, "We'd like your client to play a throwaway supervillain who appeared in two stories and was mentioned in another one," that's not quite the same as offering them a job as the Master.


 * On the other hand, a lot of British actors _are_ real fans, which makes the job a lot easier. --Falcotron 12:32, May 22, 2010 (UTC)
