Digifiend wrote: Jenna was born in 1986... so it may be that Samuel Anderson flubbed a line and said the wrong year, confusing the actress's year of birth with the character's. The line comes from Death in Heaven and was spoken in the dub or off camera by Nicholas Briggs in his Cyberman voice before the helmet opened, so, unlikely. Not to mention that overdubbing techniques go as far back as the TV movie, where they fixed "12 lives" with "13 lives", so that'd be easy to spot and fix. Also, Strax says Clara was 27 in Deep Breath, which was supposedly set immediately after Christmas 2013 (I have my own issues with continuity surrounding series 7 and 8 being set in the year of broadcast, but that seems to be the intention of the writers. Even the "2016" line in In the Forest of the Night is vague at best in context). I doubt Strax' scan's a flub as well.
