Talk:The Doctor's Wife (TV story)

Page protected ?
I will like to ask why did you have to block editing for the following 7 days I understand the reason, but not for that long at least 3 days. Also I wanted to add this picture, for the page.The mysterious 18:37, May 7, 2011 (UTC)

This was discussed in the forums. Have a poke around and you will find the discussion. 18:40, May 7, 2011 (UTC)

Ood
Can something be added about the ood? It's pretty obvious that one is appearing. 18:42, May 7, 2011 (UTC)

Hypercube
It seems likely from the next time trailers ect that the thing from the War Games is the Hypercube http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Hypercube can this be added to the Myths section? JCRendle 11:41, May 9, 2011 (UTC)

This is pretty much confirmed by this month's issue of Doctor Who Magazine. They call the thing in the trailer a "psychic message from the time lords." It's essentially the same thing seen in War Games. 82.24.93.170 14:04, May 11, 2011 (UTC)

Does anyone have any pictures of the cube in The War Games? it would be nice to have one up to see if they've changed in appearance. Rawrgoaway 11:37, May 13, 2011 (UTC)

Spelling
The next episode listed is 'The Rebel Flesh' not 'The rebel Fresh', change it now.

PleaseBoblipton 01:19, May 10, 2011 (UTC)

I agree, the name should be changed to "The Rebel Flesh". Flicky1991 20:36, May 12, 2011 (UTC)

Blue Peter Competition Tardis
Is it worth noting that Blue Peter have revealed that it's this episode in which the competition designed Tardis (from back in 2010) will appear - they're even making a toy of it which is called the 'Junk Tardis'Baziel 13:58, May 11, 2011 (UTC)

back in 2009 (says in doctor who confidential.) imagine waiting THAT long for your design to come into an episode...86.181.134.220 19:11, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

Confirmation of Myth
One of the myths, that viewers will see more of the TARDIS, has been confirmed by the recent issue of Doctor Who Magazine. We see an infinite corridore inside the TARDIS. We haven't seen an interior corridore in a long time, so this seems notable. It's also mentioned that a draft of the script had Rory getting trapped in a Zero Room.

Also, we'll deffinitely see the 9th/10th Doctor's TARDIS. Or at least the console room it used - confirmed by the official website here.

Just like to add that the myth about the Doctors Wife, which was "confirmed false" is, false. The conrimation at least. The TARDIS -is- the Doctors wife. I thought that was very, very apparant from the episode.

Series 5
Not only was this episode meant to be Episode 3 in Series 6, it was meant to be Episode 11 in Series 5, too. Also, the reason was because Steven Moffat thought that there was "not enough outside" in the first-half of the series. D0ct0r11 19:03, May 11, 2011 (UTC)

House/The House
Which one is it??? Geek Mythology 18:51, May 14, 2011 (UTC) Personaly I was a little diapointed they didnt explain what the House entity was. My money had been on a Great Vampire, the Black Guardian or Omega. Still it was written by one of the Torchwood writers so there are bound to be black hole sized plot holes :< = Servent of the Lost One
 * House. What one do you think it is? Mini-mitch\talk 18:53, May 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * Torchwood writers? If you mean this episode then no it was written by Neil Gaiman.  And it's not a plot hole to intentionally not reveal what the enemy actually was.  Sometimes it's far better and much more menacing just to not know.Carnivius Prime 10:52, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

Secret Hidden Video thing
You know how the trivia on the website has had hidden messages. This one leads to a video

 * It also has nothing to do with The Doctor's Wife. It's almost-100% certainly related to The Rebel Flesh. D0ct0r11 20:36, May 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * How is that related to the next episode it may be related to the season finale? 173.51.78.230 02:38, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

River in Forest
So Idris/"sexy (thing)" said that the only water to drink in the forest was the river has this not been said before? 173.51.78.230 02:47, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

:Maybe it's something yet-to-happen, or it may be a refference to the Doctor's first meeting of River Song, in a forest of some type.  King of Noobs 13:30, May 15, 2011 (UTC)]]

RTD-era control-room
Naturally this choice was made due to production cost evaluations .. but .. speaking in-DWU:

Might the choice of the control-room used by the 9th/10th incarnations of the Doctor as the backup used to enable Rory (& Amy) to lower the shields not be construed as a hint as to the reliability of those regenerations?!

The current (11th) incarnation seems to be very inept at keeping his companions out of trouble.

Flowtron 02:59, May 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * This belongs in The Howling. (But the use of it doesn't have anything to do with anything. It's probably because it was the closest backup room available.) ProtoKun7 21:09, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

Production Errors
On the page it states that the center wall of the custom built console went missing, I noticed that it's there when she sends the message to Rory (telling him to get out of the way) then its disappeared when she says "It's not going to hold" but when they materialize on the TARDIS all 3 walls are gone. Does it disappear at some point before that?

Also, while it may be a production error, isn't there also an in-universe explanation of 'it fell off' (especially since all 3 are missing when they materialize, and parts fell off before they even started)

Idris' Backwards Talk
When Idris/Sexy Thing is seen in her cage after the Doctor/Amy/Rory decide to go 'see the sights' (roughly 10min 48secs into the episode) she says something that comes off as gibberish but seems to be something said backwards. Has anyone been able to play it in reverse to see what she says? Ponk 14:16, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

Its not something said backwards, at least not in english http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbO65NoUyHc --Tau&#39;ri Warrior 15:56, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

fake rory
was it really a fake? the Tardis is a time machine, possible House changed the flow of time inside itself, so it could be the real Rory? --hanmac 21:31, May 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes It was a possible future negated when they found each other again. 83.104.138.141 21:39, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

Archive
Wasnt it Idris who told the Doctor about the archived control rooms rather than vice versa? Should be changed. 83.104.138.141 21:39, May 15, 2011 (UTC)
