Talk:Vincent and the Doctor (TV story)

Valeyard???
Where did the rumor about the Valeyard appearing in this episode come from? Has anyone else heard about this?


 * I believe that was just someone's conclusion from Bill Nighy's appearnace. To me, he appears to be a perfect candidate for being the Valeyard too (and he supposedly plays "the doctor of art"... remember what the Valeyard meant?) But it's still just a speculation, and most likely very false one. 109.243.23.78 13:41, April 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's not Bill Nighy's appearance, it's Tim Jones. He has the exact same clothes as the Doctor, but he looks, well, different. I think he will be in "Amy's Choice" personally, as Steven Moffat talked of a "Dream Master" to appear in it.

Reason for suicide
The Van Gogh story is set in Provence, ie historically within the last 2 years of Van Gogh's life prior to him fatally shooting himself after experiencing severe undiagnosed depression / mental illness. During this period he did works for the 'Decoration of the Yellow House', and the Curtis rumour is that in the episode Van Gogh attacks a yellow monster. Any connection? Also, is this hinting at a possible explanation here for contributory factors to his suicide? 86.26.137.154 08:04, April 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * This was my thought as well, as it appears set at the end of his life - the description of him being a 'sad and lonely painter' I suppose indicates they are not going to try and be overly revisionist and provide a complete explanation of his suicide to avoid or gloss the 'messy business' of mental illness thats not often dealt with openly enough in tv etc - though it is a family adventure program, so who knows? DreamSong 06:51, May 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thank god they're not any more revisionist as it is. As much as the DW team may believe that they're doing a good thing by making mental illness a topic, as much do they resort to the most stereotyped treatment imaginable: Mentally ill people are really not mentally ill at all, but just hiding their super powers, and what seems to be problems interacting with other people just comes from the fact that they're really much better people who can't always relate to normal people. I think lots of people with actual mental illnesses might be quite offended by that portrayal. One public guy once said in an interview that it was most tedious that whenever he told people that his child was autistic, they would immediately ask, "so is he very good at maths then?". But some people with mental problems really just have problems. They're not hiding super powers, they just need a little help. Hack59 09:37, June 8, 2010 (UTC)

Doctor-Lite Episode?
I've heared that The Lodger is the Amy-lite epeisode, so reason tells me that Vincent and the Doctor is the Doctor-lite one. Is this true? I mean, I've seen clips of the Doctor from this episode, but the synopis seems to comfirm that it is at least from Amy's point of view. Any ideas? MidnightCat 17:12, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

I don't think this episode is a Doctor-lite, I don't think season has one this season. I've seen clips of this from the trailer and it shows alot of the doctor being involved. :) -- Michael Downey 17:45, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

The Coming Soon montage at the end op ep 1 has clips from many episodes. Amy is seen wearing her scarf and outfit she wears in other stills released for this episode; she is seen wearing them as a semi wrecked Cyberman advances on her.

The alien of the episode
I don't know what to expect from this episode, alien-wise, but I'm expecting a cerberus-like creature. (For those who don't know, a cerberus is a three-headed dog, like Fluffy from Harry Potter). By the Doctor's words: "Could you breathe a little quieter please?" I think the creature must have phenomenal hearing. Meta-Levia, 16:37, May 30, 2010 (GMT)

I think it looks a bit like a nimon. TorchwoodGuy05 14:52, May 31, 2010 (UTC)

when the doc says he thinks he has seen the face before that could mean it is a old/oldish and the only clue we have got to that is a possible raxacorricofallapatorian apperence named timoreen (most rax familys end in een slithEEN blavarEEN) and the gray foot looks like a rax foot and when the "tail" sweeps that could be the arm for the arm is very long

Drwhoworld 09:32, June 2, 2010 (UTC)

IMHO it's a cockatrice, a mythical creature, part rooster with a large reptile/lizard like tail and wings, is invisible so no one sees it, and which, like a basilisk, has eyes which turn things to stone, hence the doctor running around with a mirror. 86.26.137.154 07:50, June 4, 2010 (UTC)

From the trailers, they remind me of the Reapers that appeared in the Ninth Doctor episode Father's Day (which could explain why the Doctor says that he's seen that face before). --Sudipal 21:27, June 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Here's what the Doctor says about the alien: "They travel in space, they travel as packs scavenging across the universe – sometimes one of them gets left behind and because they are a brutal race the others never come back, so, dotted all around the universe are individual, utterly merciless, utterly abandoned [insert name of monster], and what they do is, well kill until they’re killed, which they usual aren’t because other creatures can’t see them."


 * And he can only see it by looking back through a mirror.


 * His mirror-scanner-thingy device says this:
 * Planet of origin:
 * Uncertain
 * Social Structure:
 * Nomadic pack animals
 * Strict dominance hierarchy
 * Huge territories, several solar systems wide
 * Preferred habitats:
 * Planets with oxygen and nitrogen based atmospheres --Falcotron 23:34, June 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well I wasn't far off, surely the Krafayis is based on the mythical cockatrice that I suggested, it's only 'cos it's blind that no-one gets turned to stone, lol 86.26.137.154 08:22, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

"The episode was incorrectly entitled, Lend Me Your Ear"
Where did this assertion come from? MarcRS 23:25, May 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * A Google search for it along with Doctor Who, only comes up with a fan claiming to be a worker for the BBC giving out names of episodes. A few are correct, but it's obvious he isn't from the bbc. "look im from the BBC and im here to tell you the names of the episode, the 1st one will be called the eleventh hour, the 2nd,meddling Monks, the 3rd, The Dalek Tea party,the 4th, time of the angels, the 5th, flesh and stone, the 6th, vampires of venice, the 7th, title unknown, the 8th, cold blood, the 9th, warm planet, the 10th, lend me your ear, the 11th, title unknown, the 12th, silver sentence (may feature cybermen) the 13th, Cyberwar(will feature cybermen) the christmas special, a crack in time(the doctor cathes a cold and turns into a GIRL)season 6 episode 1, title unknown the 2nd, the house of nothing. THERE WILL BE A DR WHO MOVIE COMING OUT IN CINEMAS ON THE 23/11/11 AND GUESS WHO’S BACK??? DAVID TENNANT!!!!!" You heard it here first, a Doctor Who Movie due for release 23/11/11. The Thirteenth Doctor 00:01, May 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * wow, what a prick..... anyway, does anything remotely similar appear on the real painting, because I personally havn't been able to make out a monster in it. Lu-igi board
 * ::OMG! A Doctor Who movie! Can't wait. Ha. Just kidding. I know it's a hoax. ☆ The Solar Dragon  ( Talk - Contribs.) ☆ 11:18, May 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think that's the original source - it's dated March 23rd and those titles were up on sylvestermccoy.com long before that - some of the admin here obviously read that site too, because they've used it's info as well. Most of what's there has now been changed to their proper titles, the parts from "a crack in time" onwards are still visible. At the top of the page it carries this warning: "Additional note.

References to paintings
The clips indicate this episode will be similar to the Unicorn and the Wasp by alluding to several of Van Gogh's paintings, so a list of these should be added. So far the list should include the Church at Arles plus others seen in the Musee d'Orsay in what will presumably be the pre credits intro, then in the main body of the episode self portrait Summer 1887, Bedroom in Arles, Wheatfield with Crows, the Church at Auvers, Sunflowers in general, Cafe Terrace at Night, and probably Portrait of Dr Gachet, and The Night Cafe. 86.26.137.154 07:13, June 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree, but think that perhaps it should wait until after the episode airs and be put in a 'culture' or 'references' subsection. Some of these paintings also don't (as yet) directly appear but are alluded to in the set design and shots (ie. I think the episode is set in Auvers rather than Arles, though the bedroom and terrace scene from the trailer are dressed to look like the paintings made in Arles) DreamSong 08:01, June 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, and just to clarify, the clips I'm referring to are the 4 clips on the official site as well as the preview and next time clips previously made available, and between them all, indicate the dates and settings for the episode will be 3-fold, 1888 Arles, 1890 Auvers and 2010 Paris 86.26.137.154 09:20, June 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * From the clips, besides those of us who may know the locations of the paintings, I don't think that there is a clear indication that there is an 1888 and 1890 episode setting, I thought it was just a set design and writer's conceit to include those memorable references to the more famous paintings etc but that is indeed possible. It is also possible to have an earlier and later setting I guess thinking back to my uncertainty from the released clip concerning Vincent's distaste for sunflowers, which he had painted prior to 1890. I guess we shall see! cheers DreamSong 22:18, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

New spoilers
On Combom's blog, he merged together two batches of teasers (from Teen Today and SFX) for easy reading pleasure. Here they are:


 * 01. “Arcadia, The Trojan Gardens, now this?”.
 * 02. “He’s drunk, he’s mad and he never pays his bills.” Vincent is a popular chap.
 * 03. The Doctor doesn’t know three things and one of them is about Miss Pond.
 * 04. Speaking of Miss Pond, she’s from Holland you know.
 * 05. It’s not very good news when a murder occurs.
 * 06. “What is it with you and the ****c*?”
 * 07. That useless, embarrassing present from a godmother with two heads and bad breath is actually quite useful.
 * 08. It’s a parrot. No wait, it’s a polar bear. Is it?
 * 09. Vincent can hear the song of Amy’s sadness.
 * 10. “If there is one thing I can’t stand it’s an unpunctual ****n *t****.”
 * 11. Sssh. You need to whisper in the confessions box.
 * 12. That song may just make you shed a tear or two.
 * 13. Just who or what could be The Ultimate Ging.
 * 14 In some ways it’s the most unusual Doctor Who ever episode ever – never has the show been less plot-lead and more character-led
 * 15 It’s very, very emotional at times
 * 16 Anyone expecting an out-and-out comedy from Richard Curtis will be surprised. This is about Van Gogh – it doesn’t shy away from depression and suicide. If anything, the episode is quite melancholy.
 * 17 The opening scene is a blinder.
 * 18 An ongoing gag about the TARDIS’s abilities won’t make any sense to people who don’t know the show inside-out.
 * 19 Objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are.
 * 20 There’s a glorious visual reference to the painting “Starry Night”.
 * 21 The Doctor makes a slip of the tongue.
 * 22 There’s some mutual sartorial appreciation going on.
 * 23 There’s a major story element that some will decry as a massive plot hole and others will embrace on a metaphorical level.
 * 24 The TARDIS is redecorated.
 * 25 Two former Doctors make an unexpected appearance (for one of them it’s their third appearance this year).

And now for the speculation. :) --Falcotron 16:24, June 3, 2010 (UTC

The First Doctor Will Appear as he has appeared twice already Liamhenney 16:29, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

25. That will be either the first or tenth. The first, The Eleventh Hour and Vampires of Venice. Tenth, End of Time and The Eleventh Hour. 16:30, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

if the doc has a mirror then thet could meen gorgon or something?

and if two make a apperence depends how there is flash back, recording, or physical apperence witch will be a real shock

and..... if the tardis is "redcorated" then thet colud mean the tardis gets cracked (my way of saying tacken by crack) but becuse it is a time mechine it survives only to be dameged that colud be why the doc makes a new one in loger?

?Drwhoworld 21:16, June 3, 2010 (UTC)?


 * Drwhoworld, I would be incredibly happy if you could do four things:
 * Stop putting everything in center tags.
 * Stop using as much vertical space as possible for everything you have to say.
 * Create new sections instead of finding a completely unrelated section to throw your comments into.
 * Get a spell-checker. For IE, you can get IE7Pro (free); for Firefox, there are a few zillion add-ons (all free); most other browsers have it built in. --Falcotron 23:28, June 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * 19 refers to the fact that the alien can only be seen in a rear-view mirror.
 * 22 refers to Bill Nighy (who's sadly only got a pretty small part) and the Doctor.
 * 25 refers to the First and Second Doctors. When the Doctor looks at himself in the mirror-scanny-thing, that's what it identifies. --Falcotron 23:39, June 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok went through twice and got all but #18 and #23, I now think I've got 23 (I'm assuming the fact the Krafayis isn't in the window anymore, so why did they go back in the first place?) - but I still don't quite get #18, all i can match it upto is a comment about the godmother's present. Anyone catch this?Baziel 01:42, June 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * "18. An ongoing gag about the TARDIS’s abilities won’t make any sense to people who don’t know the show inside-out." The TARDIS translates languages for those who travel in it. If you try to speak in the foreign language of the area, they instead here you speak in a different foreign language (so a Roman citizen hears Donna's latin words as being Celtic words). And now, it appears, it messes with accents too - the Dutch Vincent van Gogh is speaking in French, and thinks Amy, also presumably being translated into French, has a Dutch accent, while she and the Doctor hear his Dutch accented French as English with a Scottish accent. Lokiofmidgaard 02:05, June 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Maybe 18 is why the Krafayis can understand the Doctor. Or maybe 23 has to deal with why Amy can't understand the Krafayis but the Doctor can even though only at the end. Not understanding it may be a metaphor for them misunderstanding it and people misunderstanding Vincent. V00D00M0NKY 05:28, June 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * 23 is the mixing up / together of the Arles cafe scene and painting, his house and the bedroom painting and the vase of 12 sunflowers pictures which were all actually painted in 1888 as being the same place and timeline as the 1 - 3 June 1890 setting in Auvers where he painted the church and wheatfield with crows etc. Also, not all the paintings shown as being at the Musee d'Orsay are actually held theres, plus the lack of references to his left ear (which is only actually seen in shot twice I think as majority of shots of the other side of his face) as Curtis didn't want to make any jokes etc about that, and that's also why there is such a mix up in the article having 3 different dates being stated 86.26.137.154 07:36, June 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * "Maybe 18 is why the Krafayis can understand the Doctor." - but that's hardly a gag. Hence why I think it is the accent thing, a subtle joke in regards to the TARDIS' translation ability. Lokiofmidgaard 11:58, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

I'm going with the accents for 18 because that could be considered a gag - and the missing Krafayis in the painting for 23 - as that IS a massive plot hole that people can embrace on a metaphorical level(as above, why did they go back if there wasn't a monster in the painting? and It's gone we've changed something for the better), getting his paintings in the wrong order is more or less irrelevant to the casual viewerBaziel

23 is obviously the fact that we never get a real explanation as to why Vincent can see the Krafayis. 82.21.236.138 16:38, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Story line the crack and eyes!!
While Vincent is painting the dr.s says he remembers telling Picasso "it is just an EYE one Eye... on either side of the face!" and there is the eye reference.

When the Doctor and Amy fade away the camera pulls back and there is a tree limb in the foreground that bears a striking resemblance to Amy's crack.


 * LOL! Can we not call it "Amy's Crack" please. --Looq 11:30, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Any body see anything else.
 * Well, for the eyes, there's the whole "monster you can't see thing". The Thirteenth Doctor 10:44, June 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Did anybody notice the paper from the posters had been incinerated when the Tardis materializes outside of the gallery, seems odd as when the Doctor left Shakespear an arrow managed to stay stuck in the door and also Captain Jack held onto the outside while traveling through the vortex.92.30.0.248 20:56, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Continuity Marrying?
Amy tells Vincent that she's not the marrying type even though she is still technically engaged and was about to marry Rory. V00D00M0NKY 05:35, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Actually she is not engaged to Rory on the account he never existed.Ozzymonkey 08:58, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

That's the whole point about her running away! She had cold feet, and maybe considered herself not the marrying type. Now Rory doesn't exist, she can continue on without the worry she'd be getting married. Alienatedduck 10:00, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Date of the 1880s
I haven't yet seen this episode, but with so many people writing up this article, why is it that three seperate years - 1888, 1889 and 1890 - can all be found here? Which is right?

It should be 1890 as indicated by Dr Black in the episode. The mix up is no 23 on the list of 'new spoilers' above, see my post in that section which explains 86.26.137.154 08:09, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Myths and Legend link
Should something be added as a reference about the connection / link to the legends of Perseus and slaying Medusa (as we saw the statue in the museum), and to St George and the dragon (as shown above the church door). And therefore Vincent 'saving' Amy from the monster is comparable to Andromeda and the princess.86.26.137.154 08:17, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Possible Crack?
When Amy and the Doctor are at the art gallery after dropping Vincent back home, did anyone notice where it zoomed in on the flowers painting and just below where it says "For Amy" It's a Crack? PB-Billy 08:46, June 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Are you talking about where it says "Vincent"? V00D00M0NKY 21:20, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Not a crack that is a signture.

Using the Chest
In the continuity section, it mentions about the chest being used to retrieve something. It said that this was dropped in the ninth and tenth incarnations, but the tenth did, he used a chest to get an Agatha Christie novel, so I've added this in. Another possible time, though I'm not sure, is when he gets the ghost catching thing out of the TARDIS in Army of Ghosts. The Thirteenth Doctor 11:38, June 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * Indeed, he pulled out several artifacts from pervious episodes including a cybus-man chest peice and the witches from the Shakespear Code, showing that the Tenth (and probably Ninth) Doctors used these chests frequently (abiet off-screen) --Looq 11:43, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

why Van Gogh could see it
The museum guide explained it to you, Van Gogh had the gretest "eye" ( there is another one ) for color there ever was. He was so intuned with nature that the invisible creature must have looked like the predator to him. He knew what nature truly looked like and what belonged and that monster did not belong. I took the starry night sequence as an example of how he saw the world.Xombygodd 13:20, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Not Explained
HOW COME VAN GOGH COULD SEE IT? It wasnt explained was it?


 * See the above topic. The Thirteenth Doctor 13:48, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

Companion status for a certain ginger
SPOILERS AHEAD

Right, to make the question short and clear: Should we consider Vincent van Gogh a companion now? He travelled into the future aboard the TARDIS, fought of a monster in the (his) present and they apparantly consider each other really good friends. 90.134.2.235 14:34, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

i would say he is a one off companion. you are correct that he did travel, so he is a companion. but, he only went there because the Doctor and Amy wanted to show him how important he was in history, so technically he isnt. I would put him in the "friends which travelled but not are quite compions" list lolOoiue 14:39, June 6, 2010 (UTC)

@Ooiue to shortened it, it could be 'guest companions' then state the appearance in brackets.

Amy from Holland
When the Doctor says that Amy is from Holland, isn't this a reference to the fact that both Karen Gillan and Tony Curran have Scottish accents, and since van Gogh is Dutch (and would have a Dutch accent) the TARDIS gives Amy a Dutch accent. Yeah? The Thirteenth Doctor 21:23, June 6, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yes. They explained that in Confidential. --Falcotron 11:20, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

TARDIS console reference
Was I the only one to notice that the Doctor plugged the species identification thing into a component that had the Magpie Electronics logo on it from the episode 'the Idiots Lantern'? Seems that way.

No, you weren't. Very good spot, did you notice the Magpie reference in The Beast Below? ScoutDaddy70 16:54, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Plot
The plot here is really over-detaled - it documents full conversations! We really don't need that. MidnightCat 15:13, June 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm just adding it as proper as possible. After I've added it, feel free to tone it down, I just don't like missing any details out, that's always been the way I write plots. The Thirteenth Doctor 15:21, June 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, to be honest, I don't think it's too detailed. That is the plot. If you take out the details, it makes it an extended, lengthened synopsis. I think it's more the fact the others aren't detailed enough. The Thirteenth Doctor 21:07, June 7, 2010 (UTC)
