10 Doctor Who Mistakes You Can NEVER Unsee

8. The Doors Of Hazzard (The Time Of Angels)

Safety precautions are a common sight in all sorts of places, no matter what universe you're in - and the Doctor Who universe is no different.

Well, actually, it is different in one respect: grammar.

Look no further than Series 5's The Time Of Angels, in which the Eleventh Doctor, Amy Pond, and River Song hunt an escaped Weeping Angel through the creepy Maze Of The Dead. Before they embark on that mission though, they group up at base camp to formulate a plan, and it's here where we find our mistake.

When Amy is stood in the doorway of a futuristic ship, look at the door behind her to see the phrase "CAUTION: TRIP HAZZARD" plastered across the surface. This, of course, should say "TRIP HAZARD" with a single "Z", not two - unless of course it's written in some funky alien language that randomly adds extra consonants?

Either way, "Trip Hazzard" sounds like a low-budget porn actor from the 1980s.

Danny has been with WhatCulture for over ten years, and is currently Doctor Who Editor and WhoCulture Channel Manager, overseeing all of WhatCulture's Whoniverse coverage. In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
