Talk:The Woman Who Fell to Earth

Premiere
Just a small note: the premiere took place at the Light Cinema, Sheffield. The Moor is a street ("pedestrianised thoroughfare") in the city centre where the cinema is located. Citations, if really needed: BBC, Metro. --Mondo Beer (talk) 08:14, 28 September 2018 (UTC)

Tzim-Sha
Do we need to add that the Doctor called Tzim-Sha Tim Shaw in the plot, as the character is credited as Tim Shaw in the infobox? Just to avoid confusion (or am I over-thinking this)? The joy of all things (talk) 10:20, 8 October 2018 (UTC)
 * I get where you're coming from, but you're probably overthinking it. We credit them how they're credited in the episode. --  Alex TW 10:21, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

Day of the Doctor
I get the Sleep No More reference, but The Day of the Doctor used part of the original title sequence to open the episode - also the episode is not in the supplied reference about the absent title sequence - unless I am missing something I'm inclined at the moment to suggest it is either original research or not notable.

 * "The Day of the Doctor" did not feature traditional opening credits that include the cast and episode title. --  Alex TW 12:22, 9 October 2018 (UTC)
 * But it's not mentioned by the cited source. It's synthesis to combine the source with our own observations. DonQuixote (talk) 13:04, 9 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Solved --  Alex TW 13:07, 9 October 2018 (UTC)
 * In what way is this "solved"? It clearly states in the link here "The 50th Anniversary special “The Day of the Doctor” reverted to the abbreviated [title] sequence used in most of the 1963 premiere season", while describing how "the titles were altered for story purposes". The Rotten Tomatoes link, in fact, only mentions the title sequence and Ron Grainer's Doctor Who theme music, and not the opening credits at all. Title sequences and opening credits with cast name having some overlap, but not being synonyms. (In fact, several black and white era episodes had episode and writer names appear after the title sequence ends. And lead cast didn't appear in this "traditional" credits sequence at the start until the 1996 TV movie.)
 * It's incorrect, by the way, to say there are no opening credits for "The Day of the Doctor" like what happened in "The Woman Who Fell to Earth". In "The Day of the Doctor", the lead cast, episode title, and writer, producer, and director appear during the Trafalgar Square scene and the start of the National Gallery scene from about 3 minutes in.

 * That's why I tweaked the lead, it no longer states that. Cheers. --  Alex TW 00:03, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

Truth be told, the above arguments are good, but they overlook a critical point - this episode features neither an opening title, or any opening credits. The above mentioned episodes, while not featuring either, included a form of modified opening sequence - either a unique opening title, or a unique opening sequence. For example, "Day of the Doctor" featured the use of the original opening title when Doctor Who began, followed by a prologue scene that was complemented with an opening set of credits towards the end of the sequence. Here, in "The Woman Who Fell to Earth", there was nothing; it simply went straight to the episode, only featuring the watermark of the broadcaster at the start (as is a tradition with BBC programmes since it was first introduced when it did (I don't know when)). I had to amend the lead to be specifically clear on this - however, I welcome anyone to double-check episodes to determine if they too featured no opening titles and credits, including no modified sequence of either, for its broadcast.

 * User:GUtt01 is completely correct here, and was correct when they made an edit about this the same day. Why was the "Sleep No More" bit reinstated to the lead? TardisTybort (talk) 14:56, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
 * It shouldn't have been reinstated at all; it should have been reverted back to the state I had set it to, which was correct information! Look - if the episode featured a MODIFIED OPENING SEQUENCE/TITLE CREDITS, we can link to another episode; this episode does not fall into that category. GUtt01 (talk) 15:48, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
