Doctor Who

Julie Gardner has said that when David Tennant was approached to play the Tenth Doctor, he was immediately enthusiastic. His first response was to ask, "Can I have a long swishy coat?"

The principles of the TARDIS' universal translator are depicted inconsistently throughout the series. It is supposed to translate everything into the traveler's own language, which should give everyone perfect British accents. Yet some characters in foreign countries speak with their own accents, such as Chinese or Italian, and "colourful" phrases like "apres vouz," "adios amigos," or "sayonara" are heard in their own languages. To say nothing of the Tenth Doctor's French catchphrase "Allons-y!"

During the first series, Christopher Eccleston is credited as "Doctor Who", as set in the Classic Series. Beginning with the second series - reportedly at the behest of the show's new star, David Tennant - the credit has been changed to read "The Doctor".

In series 5, Amy has a prologue that only exists in syndicated versions and isn't present in the original UK airings. It doesn't appear on home media (DVD) either.
