Talk:Warriors of the Deep (TV story)

Would it be easier to make a seperate page for all the Discontinties and errors --Bigshowbower 09:19, 24 December 2008 (UTC)


 * We could have a sub-page for them much like Father Time/Father Time - Set Visit. This article is relatively thin on story notes, so if there is some bulk taken up by distontinuities I don't think it should matter that much (are there really 120?). --Tangerineduel 13:05, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 * According to the DVD, the script had to be edited continually to remove continuity errors. Eventually this proved too much to handle and the script went to production with numwerous errors remaining. The 120 (and more) were not listed. I don't know how many remnined when production began. The ones I have listed are some which Davison, Fielding and others have commented on, plus a few I recognised myself.--Exterminateallhumans 01:57, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Should this be moved to Warriors Of The Deep, as per the title card? Tardis1963 09:31, September 25, 2009 (UTC)

Running Gag
A question in the Dicontinuities asks why The Doctor syas "When I say run, run." before actually giving the signal to run. No pun intended here, but I think it was a running gag used through much of the classic series. I move that the line should have a page of it's own with a full list of appearances. -- Stillnotginger 06:09, February 17, 2010 (UTC) Or moved to an article, 'Dr Who running-gags' or some such. Does such a page exist? Included in this page could be the 'reverse the polarity' gag, the Third Doctor's scarf, 'My vision is impaired!' and others.--Exterminateallhumans 08:03, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

I love the idea. I think it should include things that are more catchphrases or recurring situations, not just running gags. For each one, it could describe the first appearance, list later appearances, and maybe mention external references (especially other major SF shows; it wouldn't need to list every webcomic with 3 readers the way TVTropes does...).

I'm not sure where the line should be--do you need to include obvious catchphrases like "Ex-ter-mi-nate"? should it include things like gravel quarries or running through endless corridors?--but I am sure the page should exist.

So, what should it be called? --99.33.25.56 10:29, February 25, 2010 (UTC)


 * I've started up a skeleton of a potential page on my user page under projects, could use some input and help. --Stillnotginger 07:29, February 27, 2010 (UTC)

Poignant ending
Such a marvelously poignant, damning ending. It was like a severely hardcore version of the Butter Battle Book, or maybe just an alien allegory of Dr. Strangelove.Matthew Babe Stevenson ☎  18:31, September 28, 2020 (UTC)
