I don't think Nottingham's correct, is it? Davies certainly said in a Production Notes column that the mention of Nottingham in a future script had been replaced with Manchester. Angmering 11:33, 2 May 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Is Adam the Bad Wolf?
Seeing as how the Doctor abandoned him back in 2012 with a futuristic implant, I think Adam is pretty peeved off with him.
And isn't all the Big Brother/Weakest link stuff taking place on Station 5?
There is one problem with this theory. I haven't seen Bruno Langley's name in the Radio Times cast for "Bad Wolf"...
[edit] Topic for Discussion
Does making one trip with the Doctor (it appears clear that the Tardis goes straight from Van Statten's underground base to the Long Game station) give Adam the status of Companion ? He appears rather to be Rose's pet, given that it is she who brings him aboard and she who, finally, turns down his plea to be taken back after his betrayal. --Simon Cursitor 09:50, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
- Part of it is authorial intent - Adam was referred to as a "new companion" by the production team, and it is clear that it is the Doctor who rejects him ("I only take the best" [my emphasis]), not just Rose. --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 11:39, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] "evidently not the bad wolf"
This quote about Adam in relation to the third eye:
"Much fan speculation surrounded a possible return of Adam at the end of the 2005 series, conjuring a scenario where he used the advanced technology to manipulate events, gain the knowledge of time travel and perhaps even rebuild the Daleks after the Time War. Many even went as far as hypothesising that he was an earlier version of Davros (the implant in his head eventually becoming Davros's third eye). When the Dalek Emperor appeared in The Parting of the Ways, however, it was evidently neither Adam nor Davros."
It seems a bit irrelevant as the Dalek Emperor was not actually supposed to be Davros; and it also seems to be conjecture or theorising. Theorising is great, but Adam being Davros is neither a proven or disproven fact... so I just think this could be worded better; thought I'd state my reasons for rewording before doing so.~CortalYXTalk? 23:06, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
- I'd support removing the paragraph entirely — it's uncited speculation, which we normally discourage. It's true that there was a lot of fan chatter during Series 1 about Adam being Davros, but I don't think it's necessary to mention it here, unless it's been reported in some reliable source. I'm actually surprised that paragraph has lasted this long. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 00:47, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
