Talk:Closing Time (Doctor Who)

Amy, Rory and River
How come we're removing these cast members when their inclusion in the episode is backed up by the cast list in the given reference from the Radio Times? Peteb16 (talk) 13:33, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Because we don't know they are in for certain, and as per wikipedia policy, if you can be as awkward as possible and you haven't had 47 independant unbiased accounts (from doctors, scientists, the media, the queen etc) saying that it is accurate, then you must remove the information.--2.26.87.153 (talk) 15:00, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
 * No. This is ridiculous. Since when is Radio Times not a good source? If it says they're in the episode, then they're in the episode until it's broadcast without them. Especially in River's case we have absolutely no reason to doubt the source. As for companion status, the default status for them in this series has to be to give them it but if the episode's events warrant then post-broadcast it may be appropriate to move these three to others and/or call Craig a companion. But we will have to wait and see for that. U-Mos (talk) 19:09, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
 * We should go by the reliable sources we have. Just because they weren't in the trailer doesn't mean they won't be in the episode. It takes place on Earth, and for all we know, Amy and Rory live down the street from where the action takes place. It's not like there haven't been fake-outs before. When the episode airs, Amy and Rory's presence (or lack thereof) will be known definitively. Or we can turn this back into a redirect, protect it, and restore the article after the episode airs. --Ebyabe (talk) 19:39, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree, we have two sources that currently say River, Amy and Rory are in this episode. If we doubt them then this article needs to be a redirect as there is little enough to say. Edgepedia (talk) 20:45, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Why is River down as the companion? The Radio Times link just places her in the cast. 86.162.212.202 (talk) 13:31, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
 * The RT only lists the cast and doesn't specifiy the specific roles (main character, protagonist, companion, etc.). Amy and Rory were listed as companions too, but there's a discussion about that at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Doctor Who. DonQuixote (talk)
 * To address River directily, the dicussion at (I believe) Talk:Companion (Doctor Who) has agreed that by default she is a companion in this series at least. If the episode warrants it, she can be moved to "others" after broadcast. U-Mos (talk) 09:07, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

Updating Plot
I removed the 'hook' header, and am updating the Plot Summary. Gk007 (talk) 20:05, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

Another editor disagree with my "verbose" changes to the plot summary and reverted them. However, I had also corrected grammatical and factual errors. If someone disagrees with any of my plot changes, please change them directly rather than reverting. --DavidK93 (talk) 03:34, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Plot summaries need to be short and terse. There are details you added that are unnecessary to the larger plot (and even my version could use trimming).  We don't need to be scene for scene accurate in the summary. --M ASEM  (t) 03:37, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

Doctor of Archaeology
Are you sure she is Doctor of Archaeology, because in The Time of Angels, it seems she isn't yet and this is after this event, since she is already serving time at Stormcage. Hektor (talk) 12:55, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
 * In Time of Angels she isn't a professor. DonQuixote (talk) 13:07, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

The Brig'
Is this the ep in which we learn that Lethbridge-Stewart died "a few months ago"? (Nicholas Courtney died shortly before the beginning of series 6.) I reckon that's worth mentioning under Continuity. —Tamfang (talk) 07:55, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
 * No, that is in The Wedding of River Song. --M ASEM (t) 12:52, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
 * ...and it is mentioned there. Thanks. —Tamfang (talk) 21:55, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
