Talk:Asylum of the Daleks (TV story)

Time and placement of the Earth bits
Is it explicitly stated what year Amy and Rory are in? I assume that it's post-2013 Christmas, given that Pond Life counted events over several months, which would probably make it 2014 (at least). Also, on a slightly related topic, are Amy and Rory living in London now? I've never been quite clear on whether they're still in Leadworth or not...Memnarc ☎  09:27, September 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * Judging from the architechture, it's definately not Leadworth. It's nowhere near a little village with a duck pond, but can't say where exactly. Possibly London, but could be any large town or city. Geek Mythology ☎  09:40, September 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * I know nothing about divorce papers, but is the address seen aboce Amy's signature her home address or the place where see sends it to? If it her home address, then it is indeed, London. MM/ Want to talk? 12:54, September 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * Added the "set in London" category and "set in 21st century" category (at least until we know a more specific year). Memnarc ☎  23:38, September 2, 2012 (UTC)

"All" Daleks?
I've looked through the episode and tried to spot all different Daleks, but I have not seen the supremes from Journey's End (TV story) and Planet of the Daleks (TV story), are they hidden somewhere? Charlii ☎  19:03, September 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * Just because all Daleks were filmed, doesn't mean all will appear in the final episode, I'm sure there are those that would have not made it through the editing process. Geek Mythology ☎  19:19, September 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * I think those are the less important Daleks... "All Daleks" really means a Dalek from every era. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 21:46, September 2, 2012 (UTC)

Intensive Care Production Error
As The Doctor proceeds through the "intensive care" section of the Asylum, the Daleks from Spiridon, Kembel, Aridius, Vulcan & Exxilon, who survived The Doctor are seen.

However these are all shown to be dirty RTD Time War Bronze Daleks, with the exception of one classic series Dalek shown The Doctor runs out, should this be listed as a production error that the wrong Daleks were used?

Special Weapons Dalek
Did the Special Weapons Dalek from the 1988 Remembrance of the Daleks appear in Asylum of the Daleks or not?

Signed: Duncs Kinnear-Swift
 * Yes, it did. It's in the area Rory first wakes up in. d ● • ·  20:40, September 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Special Weapons Dalek 2012.JPG that's all we got. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 20:58, September 5, 2012 (UTC)

Time War
Seeing how there are not only Daleks from the classic series but Daleks who have fought and survied the Doctor I'm assuming that the Asylum was uneffected by the Time War?
 * Considering Skaro itself apparently wasn't time-locked, I would imagine not. d ● • ·  17:33, September 6, 2012 (UTC)

Dalek parliament
concerning the dalek parliament, how come there are bronze and dark red dalek drones, what are the significance between the different types on the parliament. Are the red drones higher up than the brass ones? Sclera1 ☎  11:55, September 8, 2012 (UTC)


 * From what was presented in the story we can't really begin the hazard a guess. It's not as though we they went into whether they follow the Westminster system or anything. We can only wait for more information to be presented. --Tangerineduel / talk 12:14, September 8, 2012 (UTC)

Actually, TD, I can definitively say yes, the dark red ones are higher up: Back in 2010, after receiving a vast degree of negative feedback regarding the 2010 "redesign", Steven Moffat decided to bring back the bronze Daleks as the standard foot soldiers/drones, and make the Paradigm Daleks an "officer class" in charge of them. While it has not been explicitly stated what role the red ones play, my guess is that they'll be the ones commanding the good ol' bronzies on the front lines (sort of like squad commanders)... But that's just speculation. To answer your question, yes, the red ones are higher-ranking than the bronze ones, and that's the way it's going to be.

 * To clarify my above statement, which I thought would be obvious given Sclera1's question revolved around an in-universe subject.
 * We will have to wait for a narrative-based source to present information that we can use on the Parliament of the Daleks article or any other article.
 * Dr. Anonymous1's information could of course, if properly sourced go in the behind the scenes section of the Dalek article, though not on the Parliament of the Daleks article as what Dr. Anonymous1 has stated does not specifically relate to their political system. If the word "class" was used that would indicate a class system, as well as a political system. Though until we have more information to frame these statements we can't say for certain. --Tangerineduel / talk 14:53, September 8, 2012 (UTC)
