Somebody has tagged this article with a template indicating that the episode is a dalek story. The daleks appear in passing, in a scan of earth's records viewed by the Atraxi. On the same logic one could call the episode a "first doctor story" (and a second, a third, and so on). It isn't a dalek story. Tasty monster (=TS ) 17:18, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
As a fan I'd be perfectly happy to discuss, with other fans, the question of the date of the Doctor's encounter with young Amelia, and the significance if any of the 1990 date on the NHS badge worn over a decade later by grown-up Amy's nurse friend on the village green. But now our plot description dates that first encounter to 1996 and introduces fannish speculation about the presence of the London Eye three years before it was assembled. I submit that this kind of thing is not obviously part of the plot.
If these points should later turn out to be a crucial part of some plot arc, then we can revise the plot description. But in the meantime this kind of stuff does not belong in the plot description (do I have to remind editors that this is a work of fiction, that there is no Rose Tyler and no Powell Estate?)

Doctor Who's approach to notions of consistency, continuity and canon have always been pretty relaxed. If it should really prove to be relevant, discuss the date stuff under continuity. You will be expected to say why it's important, though. There are one or two pretty good Who wiki sites that would absolutely love this stuff and don't have the burden of sticking to the encyclopedic standards set for Wikipedia.

The production team swiftly admitted at the time that the 1990 date on the NHS badge was a goof, and that nothing plotwise should be read into it. Sorry, no citation, but was in either a Dr Who Confidential and/or an issue of Doctor Who Magazine. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.138.137.179 (talk) 02:08, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
I am removing a bunch of things that have ended in this section and shouldn't be, e.g. characters repeating phrases or situations. The cloister bell ringing isn't a noteworthy item of continuity any more than the Doctor using his screwdriver. It's just part of the show. As for saying "what what what", it's plain silly...
