This
is a special Doctor Who mini-story, written by the
winners of a Blue Peter script-to-screen competition.
It
was written by the children of Ashdene School and
was broadcast, on CBBC, during an episode of Blue
Peter.
For
their on-screen credit, the only credit in the episode,
the authors were collectively known as 'The Children
of Ashdene School'. This form of on-screen
credit is unique to this and the other script-to-screen
story "Death
is the Only Answer" that was written by
the children of Oakley Junior School.
When
The Doctor's hair stands on end from an explosion,
Amy jokes that he looks like Albert Einstein.
Amy
wears the same clothes she did in "The Doctor's Wife".
Due
to time constraints a shortened version of the Doctor
Who opening titles was used.
A
Weeping
Angel chases a 2012 Olympic Torch Bearer.
Weeping Angels first appeared in the 2007Tenth
Doctor story "Blink" and
they previously appeared (briefly) in "The God Complex".
The
Cloister Bell is heard again. It was last heard in "The
God Complex".
The
Runner mentions lighting the Olympic Flame. The Tenth
Doctor did this himself in the 2006 story "Fear
Her".
Although
there is no mention of Amy’s husband, Rory
Williams, - indicating that this may take place during
Season
31 (New Series 5) - Amy knows not to blink at the sight of
the Weeping Angels, indicating that this takes place
for her after the events of "The Hungry Earth/Cold Blood",
as Amy last met the Weeping Angels in "The Time of Angels/Flesh
and Stone".
