Talk:The Crusade (TV story)

"It was also the first story to have non-white actors in it as opposed to just painting the face." Surely this is incorrect - Zienia Merton was Ping-Cho in Marco Polo. She's half Burmese and is a non-white actor. (Never edited a wiki/done a wiki talk, sorry if I've screwed up anything - the instructions are clear as mud to a noob like me) -Roe 92.233.53.65talk to me 14:13, June 2, 2015 (UTC)

Unclear meaning
"Most of the actors in this story had either just been in a Doctor Who, or were just about to do so, namely: Gabor Baraker, Zohra Sehgal, Walter Randall, Jean Marsh, Reg Pritchard and Bernard Kay. The latter was a common practice at the time."

Presumably all of them were about to be in a Doctor Who, as they are all in The Crusade. And are we saying that Bernard Kay was a common practice at the time?165.225.76.56talk to me 10:31, August 23, 2017 (UTC)

Setting
The infobox claims that this story is set in 1190, however there is no reference to the exact date in the story, with the novelisation placing it some time between 1190 and 1192:
 * The Doctor spread out his hands. ‘We can’t possibly go to King Richard wearing clothes like these. We are on Earth at the time of the Third Crusade, my boy, in Palestine; some time between A.D. 1190 and 1192. We must find wearing apparel suitable to the time and place.’

Is there a source for the 1190 date, or can I change it to 1190s, or similar? Danochy ☎  09:26, January 11, 2020 (UTC)
 * If there's no reference to the date in the story, or even the decade, then all date references should be removed. If it's mentioned in another story (for example the novelization), that can be added to Story Notes section. Shambala108 ☎  14:49, January 11, 2020 (UTC)
