Dr. Who

[DaDairyDruid]

Prediction: should be hidden, you know the drill.....

The Doctor goes and gets himself a Ganger and that what gets killed, it starts to regenerate because its a "perfect" copy after all Thereby tricking the Silence. Stealing a page from your enemies book is cool. Oh and the Question is "River Song will you Marry Me?"

AND Matt and Karen will be back for season 7, I haven't heard about Arthur though...

I loved the 'cybermat'; mom's first reaction upon seeing it: "Hey, where'd the Cybermen get Ceti Eels from?"

Oh, and you find out who is in the space suit.

Are we the only ones who were completely confused by that?
Unless I'm completely missing something, River was on the beach with Amy and Rory when the astronaut killed the Doctor, so she can't be the one in the suit...yet it appears from the ending that she is

[ArcticChicken]

Are we the only ones who were completely confused by that?

Highlight: The River in the suit is River at a different point in her time stream, IRRC a later point in her time stream. (I'm nearly certain that in that episode River wasn't a Doctor yet.)

I had a couple of thoughts to combat this, but, at least one would piss off a whole lot of people and I don't know how to hide spoilers on here in case anyone hasn't seen the episode with Craig.

Now that I know the secret to spoilers:

Highlight here: The Doctor gets shot by River, screen goes black. We are then greeted by Ten's face on the screen as he is talking to River in the Library, telling about how she got a sonic screwdriver. Highlight ends here

or

Highlight here: The Doctor is in the Pandorica still. End highlight.

[Dreamstalker]

Aahhhhh, makes slightly more sense now. I keep meaning to try and rewatch all of the River episodes in her chronological order...

[Jay 2K Winger]

Are we the only ones who were completely confused by that?

I look at it as follows:

The Silence (particularly our suited Gray-expies) have the ability to edit people's memory, and there was a strong implication that a lot of post-hypnotic suggestions were planted in River's head while she was being raised by Madam Kovarian. (The period between her abduction after her birth and her escape from the orphange in 1969, and we still don't have a lot of information about what happened to her between her regeneration into Mels and her popping up in Leadworth to grow up alongside Amy and Rory. Hell, we also don't know what they might have done to her while Amy and Rory were off gallivanting about time and space with the Doctor.)

Further, this is River's timeline, as near as I've been able to figure out. (Spoilered, of course.)



51st Century - Born on Demon's Run. Abducted by Madam Kovarian.
1969 - Raised in Renfru's orphange, escapes from the astronaut suit.
1969 - Six months later, regenerates in New York City, presumably into Mels.
1990s - Turns up in Leadworth, becoming best friends with Amelia/Amy and Rory.
1990s to 2011 - Grows up alongside Amy and Rory
2011 - Hijacks the TARDIS at gunpoint.
1938 - Shot by Hitler, regenerates into River Song, poisons the Doctor, then saves his life by giving up her regenerations

(unknown) - Ends up in Stormcage Prison

Very interested in seeing what happens next week.

[Dreamstalker]

Ditto. Thanks much for River's timeline, J2K; makes much more sense now.

[Jester]

Oh, and you find out who is in the space suit.

Something I've had an inkling of for a while now. Dating back to about the Impossible Astronaut episode itself. They've dropped far too many clues to ignore.

That being said, I won't be reading any of the highlights or spoilers or predictions or hidden messages here until after this Saturday's show.

What is your favorite scene? (Would you like me to repeat the question?)

Went to that link, and was reading a bunch of the comments. Funniest comment of all, someone said, "Personally I would have said, "Would you like me to repeat the message?"

I would also like to point out that Rory Williams is, as far as I know, the only being in the Universe that has punched out both Adolf Hitler and The Doctor. That is pretty badass, don't ya think?

^^^^ Jay2K, that graphic is freaking AWESOME! Did you put it together?? I saved it to my computer

[Jester]

I think that graphic is correct....I believe Rory was not, in fact, blown away by entering the TARDIS. Weird, huh?

[Jay 2K Winger]

^^^^ Jay2K, that graphic is freaking AWESOME! Did you put it together?? I saved it to my computer

Nope, not mine. I actually found it on the Memetic Badass page on TV Tropes. (I won't link the page, lest I cause everyone to lose the rest of their day to trawling through TV Tropes. )

[smileyeagle1021]

Not just not being blown away by the tardis, but when the sun was put behind a shield he completely ignored it as if this was an everyday occurrence for him and kept snapping pictures of a man with a dog.
