Never did dolls?[edit]

The article says that the producer wonders why the show never used evil dolls. But what about Autons? Don't they count? I know they're not really "Dolls" but they're kind of the same. 64.231.61.213 (talk) 12:08, 30 August 2011 (UTC)Moogleknight24 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.231.61.213 (talk) 12:05, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You're asking that in the wrong place. Ask Gatiss, he's the one who said it. DonQuixote (talk) 18:44, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Look out for sources[edit]

Any sources regarding the series continuity for this ep (originally filmed as ep4 for those who don't know) would be lovely. Fourth dimension tells us Madame Kovarian was in it originally, and I have my doubts whether the fade-out ending wasn't about to go into some Amy pregnancy stuff. But anyway, most useful would be something talking about the "in the flesh" line at the end. Presumably this was a foreshadowing of the three episodes originally intended to follow it that now had to serve as a reference back, like the Seventh Doctor episode I can't remember right now. But although it's a clear referral to the other plot, and we know it was scripted as coming before eps 5-7, it would be clear WP:OR to say it in those words unsourced. So a) look for a source and b) in the absence of one, is there a way to cover this in the article without straying into OR territory? U-Mos (talk) 20:02, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Nursery rhyme[edit]

  • Plot: "helped to cope by various habits" Sounds a little funny to me, maybe reword to "helped to cope by utilizing various habits"
  • Production: "he has young son like Alex" -> "he has a young son like Alex"
  • Reception: "previous three episodes ("The Unquiet Dead","The Idiot's Lantern" and "Victory of the Daleks")" This is just my personal taste, but I dislike parentheses because I think they look jarring, maybe use a ':' to make a list or insert an emdash
  • References: Why is there a question mark in the second reference "Smith?, Robert"
    • He is referred to as "Robert Smith?" throughout the book--even on the copyright page.[1] I have no clue why. Glimmer721 talk 23:55, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Those are the only issues I could find. Very solid article. On hold for seven days.--Gen. Quon (talk) 23:06, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Everything should be taken care of now. Thanks for reviewing! Glimmer721 talk 23:55, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That question mark issue is really bizarre. Anywho, looks great now. Passing.--Gen. Quon (talk) 23:57, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I think it might just be a joke. Although not a very obvious one. Glimmer721 talk 00:11, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
