15 Annoying Mistakes You Never Noticed In Doctor Who

By JG Moore /

4. Oswin's Voice

While the inclusion of Oswin Oswald in Asylum Of The Daleks (2012) is an excellent plot point and Doctor Who€™s best kept secret in god knows how long despite there being an advanced screening of the episode (seriously, well done to everyone involved on that front), there€™s still a gaping hole in the story. Asylum hinges on the eventual reveal that Oswin is a human who has been converted to a Dalek but blocked it out because of how traumatic it was, thus still believing herself to be human. This is why the Doctor and Oswin never meet face-to-face before the climax. Because no matter what she thinks she is, she still has the body and suppressed mind of a Dalek. Worked out the mistake yet? Oswin constantly banters with Rory and the Doctor over the Asylum€™s intercom systems and they always hear the voice of a young woman. It's even a plot point in the 2012 Christmas Special. But Oswin is a Dalek. She looks like a Dalek and she sounds like a Dalek. So how do the dulcet tones of Jenna-Louise Coleman get through the intercom to the Doctor? Anyone got an explanation? Because we€™re completely stumped.
