Talk:The Wheel in Space
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Date?
When is this series set? I would guess from the outfits that it is set in 2068 or thereabouts (but it could be 2000, 3000, or 5,000,000 for all I know!) DavidFarmbrough 12:37, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
- In The War Games Zoe (under a lie detector) states "I was born in the 21st century". In The Mind Robber she makes ambiguous references to the year 2000 (she recognises the Karkus but has to ask if the Doctor if he's been in that year). Timrollpickering 20:27, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Laleham
I wonder if the character Laleham perhaps gets his name from Laleham in Surrey, which is on the river near Sunbury and very close to Shepperton Studios. My father, who worked on several Doctor Who series including The Wheel in Space, also worked at Shepperton and kept a boat at Laleham. coconino 11:04, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
