Talk:Hell Bent (TV story)

Question
Someone better versed into Doctor Who History might want to verify this, but is it the first time the Doctor kills someone with a weapon? I don't recall either 9, 10, 11 of War Doctor ever do this...TzarBorisII ☎  03:30, December 6, 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, considering that there are eight other Doctors, plus when you take comics, audio, and prose into account, there have probably been several instances. It also depends on how you define weapons. As one of many examples, the Second Doctor plants the Dominators' bomb-like device on their ship and it explodes, killing them.

 * Thanks for the clarification. But still, it was strange to see the Doctor actually shoot someone with a gun. TzarBorisII ☎  05:58, December 6, 2015 (UTC)

If you want an example of him gunning folk down, there's Attack of the Cybermen.-- 13:05, December 6, 2015 (UTC)

Time and space query
I have a few comprehension questions: Did the 4.5 billion years just passed inside the confession dial? Because otherwise it's difficult to align this timeline with Gallifreys position in time. Or is Gallifrey time frozen at the End of the Universe? Or is "end of the universe" in this case to be understood spatial rather than chronological? How did it get there? I think the last question wasn`t answered in the episode. --Neshen ☎  13:01, December 6, 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure that they are at the end of the universe if it is only 4.5 billion years as the end of the universe is the year 100 trillion as shown in Series 3's "Utopia" episode. It therefore must have only been 4.5 billion years in the dial. That or Moffat disregarded plot continuity. Snivystorm ☎  14:04, December 6, 2015 (UTC)

Memory Wipe
The memory wipe scene is clearly a reference to the Christmas crackers in both Time of the Doctor and Last Christmas, isn't it?

Spacecraft name? and article?
I cannot find any name or reference for those amazing looking space craft the timelords sent after the Doctor, however they should defiantly be included as an article
