Episode Names.[]
None of the names of the episodes have been revealed so they should be removed from the page until confirmation happens which will not be for a long time. Episode titles should be changed back to (TBA). 92.6.80.22 10:21, June 27, 2010 (UTC)
- All titles, including that of the Christmas special will need to be removed. I have added a cleanup tag until this is done. Tardis1963 10:35, June 27, 2010 (UTC)
- Which it now has been. :) Woulda done it myself but don't have the time or patience. Tardis1963 10:43, June 27, 2010 (UTC) The 2010 christmas special is named 'A Christmas Carol' after the novel by Charles Dickens, and features the doctor being the ghost of Christmas Past.
2011 Christmas special[]
Don't jump the gun, folks. I just removed a comment "presuming a 2011 Christmas special". Aside from being waaaaay premature, if such a special is announced, it will be part of Series 7, just as the 2010 special was announced in the context of it being Series 6. If it's handled differently (as was Series 4 which actually saw two Christmas specials filmed during its production schedule) we'll know in due course. But the production of the 2010 special hasn't even begun yet. 23skidoo 18:59, March 19, 2010 (UTC)
Karen Gillan[]
Though I can't see all of it due to subscription lock, this source claims she is back next series and it appears to be reputable.[1]--Golden Monkey 19:48, March 20, 2010 (UTC)
- I folloed the source on the page, and it seems pretty vaige. Can anyone find a better one? Because I can't, and I beleive that without a reliable source we can't be completley sure that Amy will be returning. Hope so, though! : ) MidnightCat 11:47, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
- When they confirmed Matt Smith returning at the press conference, they didn't confirm the return of Karen. My guess is that they were waiting to see how she faired with the audience. My guess is she will be back at some point. The Thirteenth Doctor 20:58, May 28, 2010 (UTC)
Jonathan Ross[]
There was an interview with Matt Smith on the Jonathan Ross show, and he revealed info about the series. I can't remember it though, so somebody'll have to look it up on BBC iPlayer, because Episode 6 was revealed. {{SUBST:User:Tigernose/sig}} 17:36, March 29, 2010 (UTC)
RTD to write for Series 6[]
RTD will write an episode for this series - confirmed here 188.221.79.22 10:14, April 1, 2010 (UTC)
- That's called an April Fool. -- Dragonfree 19:53, April 1, 2010 (UTC)
- Thank heaven it is an April Fool. Bluebox444 22:30, April 26, 2010 (UTC)
- Its August. Who7 09:56, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
unconfirmed cast[]
- If it's unconfirmed - why have it in the article? 188.221.79.22 19:32, April 4, 2010 (UTC)
- Joanna Page has not been confirmed either - The reference won't load, but the original story was by a less-than-reputable tabloid newspaper 'The Daily Star'. Both Page and the BBC have since denied involvement. So she needs to be removed... and people should be more careful over the use of the word 'confirmed'86.184.48.234 01:32, May 26, 2010 (UTC)
Rory[]
How do you know that it is likely Rory will return? 72.82.17.84 00:52, May 31, 2010 (UTC)
- He won't be appearing in Series 6. But he will make an appearance in the Christmas Special 2010 due to Amy and Rory's honeymoon. Because Amy can't have a honeymoon by herself. Who7 09:57, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
- It is highly unlikely that he will not be in series 6 considering Moffat said he would. Several times. The Thirteenth Doctor 12:01, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
- It has been confirmed by Stephen Moffat that Rory will be a regular in this series; in DWM 426 he talks of the series split and the "enormous, game-changing cliffhanger for the Doctor, Amy and Rory", and Neil Gaiman confirms he wrote for Rory in DWM 427. Other multiple sources have since supported this, so could someone change the article so that it says Arthur Darvill will return along with Matt and Karen? Thanks 92.235.135.70 18:31, November 9, 2010 (UTC)
Enemies[]
Although no enemies have been confirmed, I'd love to see the return of Daleks, Weeping Angels, a Torchwood monster (like the Weevils) and a classic monster (like the Zygons) And since the Daleks have appeared in every other series, it is highly likely they will return. Also I'd like to see some new monsters (for at least 4 of the 10 stories)Fallen5 19:33, May 31, 2010 (UTC)
- The Weeping Angels shouldn't return for at least another series. Anyway, this shouldn't be discussed here. Use the forums. User:Solar Dragon/Signature 19:45, May 3
- one enemy has been confirmed by stevan moffat and that is the silence look it up on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ihzu-OPa4g4
- The only enemy that appears to be confirmed is the flying Shark in the 2010 Christmas Special which, if the conclusion of the third Adventure Game was correct, suggests the Christmas Special begins in London in the twenty-third century after the Great Flood. 86.170.161.145 22:56, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
It's very unlikely that the Christmas special will be straight on following the third Adventure Game for a few reasons.
1. Rory is going to appear as it is their honeymoon and there is no Rory in the games
2. The special is going to have a Christmas Carol twist and I heavily doubt that there will be a shark from the 23rd century there.

Myths printed in widely-read sources[]
I noticed that some of the rumours which have been debunked have been removed. Of course we can't keep track of all the rumours and it makes sense to cull some of the ones that prove to be false. However, I wonder if there should be an exception for media with a large distribution - if only to record that a mistake was picked up by outside media and widely reported. For example, the rumour about Joanna Page appeared in the Daily Star, a printed newspaper which claims 1,701 million readers (is that comma for a decimal point? Is that common in the UK?) The rumour about Matt Smith leaving was also picked up by Virgin Media on their TV News web video, and I'm not sure where to stand on that one - although I think the rumour itself can probably be traced back to one blog. These rumours won't count as unsourced, as you can cite where they were found - but they're not true. Where do we stand on these? the angel Jean - Smith's little elf 11:45, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
- I've put them back. Nothing, save vandalism, should be removed without discussion first. These rumours should stay. They're actually important. We're here to document things related to Doctor Who, including rumours about the show, that's why we have the section. I mean, Matt Smith leaving. That's a really important rumour, and should stay. I have no idea why it was removed. We keep them all until the series ends, otherwise people who don't visit often read the sources of these rumours, then add them to the page and we simply have to remove them again. It's just easier to keep them until the series airs. The Thirteenth Doctor 17:35, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
- Should the rumour about Joanna Page, printed in the Daily Star, be put back in then? I mention this because the previous editor, who removed the other rumours, had previously lost an argument about the same thing - he said that the rumour about Joanna Page should be reinstated, but despite this the rumour was removed. So I can see why he would have been confused about what should stay and what should go. For consistency, the rumour should be reinstated (as a debunked one, in the Rumours section) ... right? the angel Jean - Smith's little elf 07:03, July 27, 2010 (UTC)
- No, that rumour was for a series which is past. Everyone knows that she didn't appear, so they won't be adding it to the series page as they know she didn't appear. The rumours should only be there until the series airs. It'll save more work in the long run. --The Thirteenth Doctor 09:28, July 27, 2010 (UTC)
Tom Baker's return.[]
It is rumored that Tom Baker may return for a multi-doctor episode.Any information on this?
Tom Baker may return:http://lifetheuniverseandcombom.blogspot.com/2010/03/tom-baker-to-be-in-doctor-who-series-6.html
So should we list Tom Baker as a rumored return?
The rumors sound extremely vague, and they don't reference anything beyond "discussions"... even the source sounds uncertain about it. I'd say wait. 159.28.161.150 06:27, September 20, 2010 (UTC)
Semi-Protect[]
The Semi Protect will run out before episode one (based on the fact all other series started in april) Joshoedit 06:01, September 28, 2010 (UTC)
The Doctor meets the Queen Mother[]
I'm wanting to add this rumour. The original source for the above teasers is here and number ten states "4 August 1982 – Happy Birthday, Ma’am." Fourth August was the Queen Mother's birthday, and the Ma'am implies it is a queen or someone of royalty. Also, number 39, "Octavian wasn’t lying." implies that he meets Octavian again. Any objections to adding these? The Thirteenth Doctor 16:57, October 2, 2010 (UTC)
- Octavian does not return. Not that I know of. Number 39 "Octavian Wasn't Lying", means that what he said about River killing a man was true. That could be something we find in Series 6 next year. Who7 09:33, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
- What exactly says he isn't returning? Octavian wasn't lying can refer to several things, including the "I think you know me at my best". This line implies he was worse off and that the Doctor would meet Octavian's past self. --The Thirteenth Doctor 11:13, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
The Horror of Bangkok (18) .... this is listed above[]
"The Horror of Bangkok" 'sounds pretty similar to a classic series title, "The Horror of Fang Rock" in which the enemy which faced the Doctor was the Rutans. This as far as I know isnt already a rumour, but could the Rutans return for an episode called "The Horror of Bangkok" ? (Just a thought :D) - ~~Topgeardog~~
Rumours section[]
Some of the rumours are just plain stupid, such as 'River Song will die' - impossible, unless we get 'Forest of the Dead Redux (Another Story)', and the Christmas Special being a musical? Liek, what the heck? Dragonfree 5000! 10:56, October 23, 2010 (UTC)
The Break[]
If episode 6 is part 1 and episode 7 is part 2 and we've credited Steven Moffat with ep. 6 why not ep. 7 Joshoedit 07:11, November 6, 2010 (UTC)
Amy's Secret[]
"Future Doctor" unless its a'la The Next Doctor or is almost completly obscuered by the camera light like Prof. Moriaty in Sherlock Holmes. Joshoedit 19:15, November 25, 2010 (UTC)
River[]
Can we put her in secondary she wasn't seen shooting episode 3 Joshoedit 18:40, December 5, 2010 (UTC)
