Doctor Who/WMG/Series 6: Difference between revisions

== Silents ==

=== The eyepatches let people remember the Silence ===

* Not necessarily the eyepatch itself. If one wanted to remember the Silence, they would remove one of their eyes, hook it up to their brains wirelessly (or something), and keep it looking permanently at a Silent. You would be missing an eye, hence, eyepatch.

** Confirmed.

*** Specifically, the eyepatches stimulate your memory functions so you remember them.

=== The Silents are the [[A Wind in the Door|Echthroi]] ===

When they do their electrical attack, the victims are Xed (unNamed). This not only destroys them, it removes them from existence, like the Time Cracks. Which are ultimatly their doing also. At one point in [[A Wind in the Door]] the Echthroi are said to be causing rips in the universe. We never got any follow up on that destroyed secretary because she was removed from existance.

Amy is naturally, or was caused to become, a Namer. That is how she brought everything back. The Doctor, who has some qualities of a namer himself, tried to directly, but only subconciously kicked Amy's abilities into action when Rory died and was Cracked. "Tell me about Rory. Fantastic Rory, funny Rory, gorgeous Rory. Remember Rory." Which is how Rory's essence survived long enough to be actually [[The Power of Love|Named]].

Rory: Listen to me, you have to run. You have to get as far away from here as you can. I'm a thing. I'll kill you. Just go! Please, no, I don't want to go. Im Rory! I'm—

Amy: Williams. Rory Williams from Leadworth. My boyfriend. How can I forget you?

In fact, at this point, Rory has been Named several times over. Rory Williams, Rory Pond, The Lone Centurion, Stupidface, Pretty...that's why he's so hard to kill.

=== The Silence Won't Fall... ===

* The '''Silents''' will fall. We already know that there are going to be creatures in the upcoming series called 'Silents', afterall.

** Jossed. Though technically a better translation is that silence "must" fall.

=== The Silents will be revealed to be Time Lords who were twisted refugees of the Time War, or The Silents were at least somehow involved in the conflict ===

I keep thinking of a (then) throwaway line from ''The End of Time'', where Ten talks of the [[Noodle Incident|Skaro Degradations, The Nightmare Child, and the Could've-Been King and his Army of Never-Weres]], and wonder if the Silents might fit in to that somewhere. The nature of none of those events or entities have been revealed heretofore, and we know that [[Steven Moffat]] loves binging on [[Continuity Porn]], so the means, motive and opportunity for him to pull this twist is certainly out there. Since we don't know where the Time War fits into to time, linearlly, could they possibly be combatants from the war who somehow were able to evade the time lock and the destruction of both Skaro and Gallifrey? If that's the case, it might bring some sort of answer to, if not who killed The Doctor, at least WHY. Particularly if the Silents are twisted Time Lords. And remember, they did, apparently, build their own TARDIS-like-thingie...

* Oh, and the mid-season cliffhanger is called ''A Good Man Goes to War''. Mayhap a ''Time'' War?

** It's not the Last Great Time War, and the battle is fought in one timezone (though it does involve beings spanning from the 19th to 41st centuries)

** Alternatively, the Silents are a twisted new breed of Time Lords descended from River Song, making them a race of Time Lord-human hybrids. They eventually develop their own version of the TARDIS that is seen in the Lodger, but just as they aren't "pure" Time Lords (you can't just cook up a Time Lord like that, as a certain someone said) , the technology they develop is also impure - the Doctor claims that he's "too much" for the Lodger-TARDIS, which indicates that their TARDIS isn't as powerful as a Time Lord's one. This could also explain why they were supposedly driving the human race to develop space-faring technology - their attempt at a TARDIS could travel in time, but not space, so while they could go back and exist since the wheel and the fire, they remained bound to a single world. On the other hand, they found a way to master the perception filter technology even more than the Time Lords ever managed, which is where their Forget-attribute comes from.

=== Schizophrenia is caused by the Silence in the Whoniverse ===

We don't really know what causes schizophrenia. All we know about it is that the symptoms include hallucinations, delusions, and, occasionally, catatonic stupor and that antipsychotics and certain other treatments seem to be somewhat effective in treating it. The most common hallucinations are audio - the hearing of noises (like voices) that aren't there. Who's to say the voices aren't the Silence, and the delusions aren't the Silence putting suggestions in the affected person's mind? In "Day of the Moon", it is revealed that the Silence can put someone to sleep merely by telling them to, even without leaving their sight. The catatonic stupors (loss of physical mobility for a set period of time) may also be caused by the Silence. As for why certain treatments seem to be effective, the Silence are smart. They could easily lay off a bit. Why would they do this? Seems like a fun prank for the adolescents to carry out.

=== The Silence and the Silents are two different things. ===

The Silents are an alien race that serve something called the Silence or are working towards an event called the Silence. Thus when they say Silence will fall, they are not referring to themselves, rather to their goals.

* The Silence is a religious organisation. Probably confirmed.

=== The Silence really ''were'' in the Library. ===

And they, inadvertently or not, were responsible for filling it with so many Vashta Nerada.

* [[Jossed]] in the story. The Vashta Nerada were not "filled". They were taken there when their spores were inside every book.

=== The Silents and the Ood are closely related ===

* The Silents' faces look like silly putty somebody dragged their fingers through. It could be the precursor or descendants of the Ood tentacles.

* The Ood were developing time travel technology when we last saw them, and somhow advancing way faster than they should. It was never explained. Perhaps they got as far as the Black TARDIS?

* There is a scary Ood in the trailer for "The Doctor's Wife". Eyes glowing green this time, almost creepier than red.

** The episode gives no connection to the Silence. The green-eyed Ood is possessed by a being from another universe.

* The Silents' sits even look like they're made from the same sort of material as the Ood's outfits.

* Fact is, no matter how much they were abused, the Ood are a scary looking people. And they have reason to be angry with humanity.

** The Silents'/Silence's anger seems more focused on the Doctor.

=== The Silence help out humanity, such as protecting them from aliens when The Doctor is not around. ===

So, Silence Falling is referred to as a bad thing. The Silence have been controlling Earth since as long as there have been protohumans. We are still around, aren't we? They may protect us when there are problems when The Doctor isn't around. We just don't know how many times that they have saved us since we forget them. They may antagonize The Doctor because they are protective of us, we're their protectorates, not his!

* Also, that might explain Amy's baby/not baby: If the Silents have been protecting Earth, then Earth will have been destroyed if they fall. In the original timeline, they are still ruling Earth, allowing Amy and Rory to live a normal life. In the new timeline that the Doctor made, aliens have destroyed and ravaged Earth, not allowing Amy and Rory to have children.

** Her baby/not baby has nothing to do with alternative timelines. That's because Amy's occupying a Ganger body.

=== The Silence [[Alternate Character Interpretation|aren't evil]] and the Doctor is essentially committing genocide. ===

* Think about it: we have only seen a Silent attack without provocation once, and as mentioned above, that may have been out of frustration. Furthermore, one person's action does not define a species. And controlling human history behind the scenes is not necessarily evil: if a new species appeared on your planet that forgot you existed when they looked away, wouldn't you want to help them out a bit? We don't know for certain that the Silence are responsible for the cracks in time. [[Memetic Mutation|It's all Steve's fault, of course.]]

** And even if they were behind the cracks,who's to say [[Xanatos Gambit|they didn't mean for it to reboot reality]] [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|and create a better world.]]

** I think it was made pretty clear that their intentions towards humanity are not good when one Silent told Canton that he should kill them all on sight.

** And pretty much Jossed by the series' second half.

=== The Silence were ''not'' responsible for destroying the TARDIS and the universe. Rather, something much, ''much'' worse was and it is now free. ===

"Silence will fall" in fact refers to their downfall in ''Day of the Moon'' at the hands of the Doctor. Something terrible was being restrained and rendered powerless by them, which might have been one of the reasons they acted as they did... though they were silent, mostly-evil conquerers they were also in a sense ''protecting'' humanity and the rest of the universe (but most importantly, themselves). With their power and influence greatly diminished, whatever it was they were guarding has broken free.

Destroying the universe and the TARDIS were just pieces of a great plan to get the Doctor to neutralize The Silence, which he ultimately did.

* And that person they tried to stop...may just be the Doctor.

** Jossed. "Silence will fall" has nothing to do with their downfall.

=== Between 1969 and 2011, The Silence did something to reverse or counter the hidden extermination order in the moon landing. ===

It is unlikely that Amy, Rory or River never saw the moon landing video during their lifetimes, but none of them were compelled to kill any Silent they see on sight. With those two episodes being a [[Stable Time Loop]] set up by the future Doctor (supposedly), they ''should'' have been affected but they weren't.

* They wouldn't need to. Whenever you look away from a Silent, you forget. It'll be as if there wasn't any change to the moon landing video, and you will never know.Quite simply, The Silence may have used the same trick the Doctor did back in 1969... embed a hidden message into something that many, many people were sure to watch, telling them to submit and listen to whatever The Silence order them to and that this order supersedes all others now and forever (making the moon landing video useless).

* The Royal Wedding perhaps? 0.5 Billion? NO!! 2.5 Billion. The Doctor would have to wait a while to beat that!

=== The Silence are behind the whole of Madame Kovarian's operation, and also the attempt to blow up the TARDIS (without knowing the consequences). ===

The motivation for the anti-Doctor group led by Madame Kovarian still hasn't been adequately explained ('boo-hoo the docter is scary' doesn't quite satisfy me), and the idea of 'Silence will fall' was set up as being way too big to blow its whole load in the first two episodes (and we know that the characters from the Lodger will return...) so after the Doctor destroyed the Silent Empire, they created the Anti-Doctor organization slowly (only took 'em three millenia) as a means of revenge against him. This is actually plan B after plan A - blow up the TARDIS - somehow failed (I guess the voice in the TARDIS just before it explodes is a silence? Maybe).

* So basically Kovarian is an [[Unwitting Pawn]] of the Silence.

* She's not an [[Unwitting Pawn]]. She's willingly working for them.

=== The Silents are good, but think that the Doctor is evil. ===

Assuming that the Silents are ultimately benevolent, [[Nightmare Fuel|despite how scary they are,]] they could be against the Doctor because they see him as a threat. It's been established in "The Pandorica Opens" that much of the universe is scared of him, so who's to say the Silents aren't? They first occupied Earth because it's where the Doctor and so many aliens love to visit. At first, they weren't exactly sure if the Doctor was the monster they'd come to believe. But after theorizing that he may be why Earth is a [[Weirdness Magnet]], and more importantly ordering their execution, they felt it was absolute proof they were in the right. Their alliance with Madame Kovarian is to fight off the Doctor.

=== How The Doctor will stop the Silents for good ===

* He will go into the Time Vortex and broadcast the message from the Silents through every television for eternity, every holoscreen, every phone. Once a day sending out a continuous subliminal message: You should shoot us all on sight. Ever watched an episode of a tv programme again and think "I didn't see that bit last time!" That's because that part was on when the message happened to be replayed. Tinkering in the background. Maybe a little image in the corner. Either way, you will forget and you will do it.

=== The Silents predicted their downfall ===

* They kidnapped Amy Pond because they think she led to their defeat. Let's face it, if Amy was never there, The Doctor would be dead. Also, Amy spawned River Song, who has killed a *LOT* of Silents. So when they said "Silents will fall" they were talking about their own defeat. They had seen it (maybe they're precognitive?) and wanted to stop her.

=== The Silents made the crack to save Rory's life. ===

Yes, it seems that Rory is now nigh un-killable. But in "Cold Blood" he should have died, and would have, if the crack hadn't eaten him. The time crack might have wiped Rory out of existence for a little while, but in the long term, it did him a lot of good. It was the crack streaming through Little Amelia's head which allowed Amy's memories of Rory to be kept. It was the crack which allowed the creation of Nestene Romans, one of which became Rory.

So why would they do this? Possibly because they seem to have interest in the time tyke seen in "The Impossible Astronaut"/"Day of The Moon", who was hinted to be Amy and Rory's daughter, and hinted very strongly to be River Song. They might have known that for the her to come into existence, they would have to keep Rory alive, so the child could be concieved. Thus the crack was made to save Rory's life.

=== The Silence are [[Slendermen Mythos|Slendermen]] ===

Or their leader is. They look remarkably similar (Tall, Slender, Male, in a suit) and fans have wanted this for a while and [[Steven Moffat]] complied.

* And after having seen the first episode of Season Six, this guess looks ever ''more'' plausible. The business suits, the tallness, the general creepiness, ''the fact that they mess with memories''... It's almost like Moffat has been watching ''[[Marble Hornets]]'' and said "Yeah, that'd make a great villain!"

* The one few memories that exist of them are so faint and vague we incorporate them into stories. Creating the illusion that there is only one of them, when there are many identical and also the reason we most often depict the [[Slender Man]] as [[The Blank]], because their face is [[Nightmare Face|too alien and horrifying for us to take in]].

=== The Silence are both the result and the cause of a massive paradox involving River Song ===

It wasn't the TARDIS exploding that caused "Silence to Fall" - at least, not directly. It was the fact that River Song was on board the TARDIS when it exploded on Amy and Rory's wedding day. This theory is based on the fact that River Song is heavily implied, if not actually confirmed, to have been conceived that night, River claiming to be a complex space-time event similar to the Doctor, and the Silence claiming that Amy will bring the Silence, which might be a reference to her daughter. The destruction of the TARDIS not only tears reality a new one, it causes a complex space-time event to cancel out her entire existence at the moment of her own creation, causing a hell of a paradox. River says that something is overriding her and driving the TARDIS to destroy itself, and hears a voice state that "Silence will fall". This is actually the Silence using their ability to leave post-hypnotic commands, meaning that River is actually the one forcing the TARDIS to explode, subconsiously countering her own desperate attempts to stop it. Why? The Silence exist in a reality outside of the multiverse and the void, so very different that they can't exist in any reality we would consider normal. They used this paradox as a way to destroy what they couldn't have, or maybe it was a [[Xanatos Gambit]] depending on the Doctor cancelling out the destruction of reality, allowing them to slip into it and weave themselves into the reality created by the TARDIS' Big Bang in a way that allows them to exist within our reality - if this is the case, they may also have inspired the creation of the Pandorica for the Doctor to use to save the day. Of course, this means that the Silence would have to have been around before any of this started, but when it comes to Paradox and time travel, [[Timey-Wimey Ball|Effect doesn't necessarily follow Cause.]]

=== The Doctor has encountered the Silence before. ===

However, he has (naturally) forgotten all about them. One of the Silence mentioned being on Earth since fire and the wheel. The making of fire was a major goal of the cavemen in the very first episode of the series. The Doctor wasn't all that heroic in this episode, so intentional thwarting is somewhat out of the question. Accidental stowaways on the TARDIS perhaps? Stranded in pre-history, their plans for recovery delayed by the Doctor, whether he knew it at the time or not.

* Well, have you watched "Edge of Destruction" recently?

=== The Silence are both the remnants of alterations to human history, echoes of future alterations, The Enemy from Faction Paradox, and a link between RL Earth and Who Earth ===

In the Whoniverse looking away from a Silent means you forget the existence of the Silence. This of course means that a wild mass guessing on the nature of the Silence is impossible in the Whoniverse. Are you looking at a Silent or a picture of one while reading this? Probably not. Do you remember them? Yes otherwise this example would not exist.

Now what else can't be seen unless your looking at it? Changes to Time and of course Plot. Imagine your a girl that hangs out with those two guys then some time traveler changes history and guy one becomes a girl and you now always lived in a harem comedy. where did the first boy go? No where it was silenced by the change to history. Can you see a change to history or remember it if your not a outside observer like say The Doctor. No it simply "has always been that way".

The Silence can affect Time Lords because they exist in a higher order of time. Time lords follow cause and effect time except when traveling. Silence exist in "wouldn't that be neat time" also called 'plot time'. The Silent that killed that woman knew everything about her not because it stalked her but because it was a coporeal manifestation of the ''past'(pre-time alteration) future she will no longer have and the 'future' (post-time alteration) death. The Silence killed her because plot demanded it.

Now then in the Faxtion paradox series the "Great Houses" a.k.a. Time Lords faught a nameless Enemy that was described more as a force of history then an oranization or group of beings. Why didn't the Time lords name this enemy? They only knew it existed due to its side-effects. They forgot what the enemy was when not seeing them but knew the enemy existed. Once everything went to hell with Fation Paradox, the Ancestor Cell, the Celestis, the Remote, and Lady Lolita (who evolved from The Master's old Tardis and takes after her Time Lord) the Silence sliped away so their masters (not to be confused with The Master(unless he's a fan of Doctor Who)see below)could watch.

Now who are the masters of the Silence. The humans from this Earth in particualar those incharge of making teh episodes and other parts of Doctor Who. The Silence never appeared in the library not because we forgot them but because it would ruin the plot twist. Now then the Second War in Heaven ended with Galiifrey's destruction yet it's a different war then the Last Great Time War why? Because until the plot twist Dalek were easier to film then a memetic force thus the Silence altered the time War and replaced it with a different time war that was more coporeal. We can't see how a bio-data virus that alters its victims genes and history works nor have we seen The Nightmare Child (probably not the biological or adopted child of Steven Moffat, too obvious to be a child version of Moffat that escaped into the Whoniverse) but it's easier to imagine something eating a flagship while also properly "big enough" to be incomprehensible.

This of course means that when one decides to explore the setting of Doctor Who a Silence is made to "set the stage" and after that it simply disappears until needed again. They appear in the new series because the Doctor needed something ominous to face that his try to reason with it tactics would not work. Thus the normally formless Silence took form by the orders of the King of Nightmares.

Feel reassured and less paranoid? Don't. Here's how it gets worse. That link they create between the two universes. Nothings stoping anything from finding a way to follow it back into this universe. The Nightmare Child, Skaro degenerations, and the Could Have Been King have to escape to somewhere? Right? Good Day.

So basically its all Steve's fault.

=== The Silence "convert" people. ===

* If the Silence, as revealed in ''Let's Kill Hitler'', is actually not a species, but rather a religious movement, then why are they all identical? The Headless Monks are capable of making a rather, er, fundamental change to your body. Perhaps the Silence run a similar but more elaborate operation, and can reprogram your biology at a basic level to gradually make you one of them...brr.

=== Jack Harkness was working with the Silence. ===

* Or rather, the person who would become Captain Jack Harkness was working for the Silence. We know that River Song, who the Silence were training as a weapon against the Doctor, spends a lot of her time in the 51st century. It's quite probable that the Silence are based in the 51st century. The 51st century is also Jack's native time period. If the Silence is fighting against the Doctor, they might well have asked the Time Agency for help. Given that the Doctor keeps on messing with time, the Time Agency may have seen the Doctor as problematic and supported the Silence's attempts to get rid of him. So they may have sent some of their agents to work for the Silence. In "The Doctor Dances", Jack claims that the Time Agency erased two years' worth of his memory. We know that you cannot remember the Silence (the species version, if not the entire religious movement) after you've stopped looking at them. If Jack spent two years working with them, he probably wouldn't remember most of what had happened. But he wouldn't have been looking at the Silence every single second for two years, so surely he should be able to remember something? Not really—if the Silence have that much power over someone's memory in the first place, it would hardly be surprising if they figured out how to make someone forget everything they did during a time period when they were even vaguely associated with the Silence.

=== The Silence aren't, as a whole, actually evil. ===

Aside from traitors or others coerced in some way, they are more than content to share the Earth and help humanity (and themselves). Perhaps the Doctor was used to try and exterminate them once the Silence organization didn't need them anymore, which nearly succeeded. He will then free and help the enslaved ones, who will then go back into obscurity and live as they always did.

=== The Daleks from Bad Wolf/Parting of the Ways are part of the Silence ===

They mention having waited in silence for years. They have guided human evolution via Satellite 5 and the game station. They mention blasphemy and the Doctor asks them 'Since when did Daleks have a concept of Blasphemy? -The Silence is a religious order. And then in series 6, where does the Doctor get his information about the silence? From a Dalek scientist's memories. Now why would Daleks work with the Silence? Because there's something out there they both fear and hate so intensely. The destroyer of worlds, the oncoming storm.

=== There's a Silent hiding within the TARDIS ===

At two points in the Lodger, there are scenes where Amy, stuck in the TARDIS as it tries and fails to complete a materialisation, is talking to the Doctor when something odd happens. As the Doctor talks, once in Craig's spare room and once on the football field, Amy looks off screen, gasps and looks shocked and then cries "Hey!" before the scene carries on as usual. During the second time, as she reacts like this, the Doctor says "Hang on" as she cries "Hey!" - she repeats his "Hang on" in an uncertain tone of voice and shakes her head as if trying to wake from a tired state. Later on, as the Doctor and Craig race upstairs to help Sophie and Amy experiences turbulence in the TARDIS, over the earpiece she can be heard to cry "Doctor!", and then inexplicably say "Hang on..." in the same uncertain tone that she did earlier. Her actions here aren't explained. Perhaps the Silent was the pilot of the primitive TARDIS above Craig's flat, and the disturbance that caught the TARDIS was it managing to transport itself into the Doctor's TARDIS. On two occasions, Amy saw it darting away from her out of the room, causing the reaction, but the trademark effect of the Silence kicks in and she immediately forgets it happened. As we also know that seeing the Silence can leave a post-hypnotic suggestion in a person's mind, maybe seeing this Silent accidentally left the Doctor's command of "Hang on" in Amy's mind, which then came back to her mind when she was again in danger of being lost in the Vortex as the Doctor was warning her about. It's not long after this - the next episode, in fact - that the TARDIS inexplicably shoots off to 26/06/2010 with River Song and explodes despite her efforts - was the Silent in the TARDIS sabotaging it? And if it was, was it killed in the explosion, or could it have survived? Could it still be in the TARDIS even now, watching the Doctor? And if it is, what happens when it warns the rest of the Silence that the Doctor survived Lake Silencio?

=== The Black Guardian is the one behind the Silents. ===

At the end of the Black Guardian trilogy, the White Guardian said that the Doctor would meet up with the Black Guardian one final time. That has yet to happen. Also, what does the Black Guardian love most? Chaos. Causing Silence to fall by having the question asked? Sounds like chaos if you ask me. It's exactly his type of thing- manipulating other people/creatures to cause the chaos for him, and hating on the Doctor a lot/wanting to kill him.

=== The Silents are the Doctor and the TARDIS ===

Even for the Doctor, that was a very unusual regeneration between Ten and Eleven, wasn't it? Regeneration is never exactly quiet, but to create such a blast wave that it destroys the TARDIS console room, causes it to crash, and requires it to completely shut down to rebuild itself? And, on another subject, if the Time Cracks appear throughout time and space, and if the Silence has manipulated humanity since the Stone Age as they claim, why is it no sign of any of them was ever seen until the Doctor regenerated into his Eleventh incarnation?

What if that huge explosion of regenerative energy purged something from the Doctor? And took with it something from the TARDIS telepathically linked to him? Something that manifested into a group of creatures now called the Silents? The memory-proof nature of them? From the TARDIS' perception filter. The energy attacks they use? Energy from sources they draw on in the same way that the TARDIS draws on. Their makeshift TARDIS machine? The result of the Doctor's knowledge of the TARDIS without sufficient or suitable materials to grow a proper one. River Song being as close to a Time Lord as you can get? She may have got a spark of the Time Lord gift from being concieved on the TARDIS, but the Doctor insisted that it took far more than that to cook up a working Time Lord...his knowledge of which the Silence could draw on to create their weapon, just as they could to take control of the TARDIS and blow it up.

So, why are they so hell-bent on eliminating the Doctor, then? Well, maybe they have the shadows of something buried in the Doctor's mind, so deeply not even he can clearly remember it. Something that scared the Doctor a long time ago, so much so that he sealed away his name in such despair, something that he has run away from all his life. The answer to a question that deep down, he knows must never, ever be answered. And if these newborn Silents took a memory from the future, one that the TARDIS could know due to her non-linear perception of time, that told them that one day the Doctor was destined to reveal this terrible secret, what lengths might they go to to stop him?

=== Eleven is going to change the events of ''Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead''. ===

The only water in the forest is the river. "Forest" of the Dead contained "River" Song and piranhas. Air piranhas. Plus, it makes for an epic episode. Donna Noble, Amy and Rory Pond, 11 and 10 all with River. Could you imagine 11 pulling a "spoilers" on 10?

* If this happens, it'll be in the series finale- firstly because arc words always show up in the last episode(s), and secondly because how else can they top restarting the universe, The Master Race, Daleks trying to destroy all universes, The Year That Never Was, Cybermen vs Daleks vs Torchwood and Daleks on Satellite 5? Also, Rule of Cool demands it.

* Plus, the main villains of Series 6 are the Silence. '''''Silence''' in the Library''?! Knowing Moffat, he could very well have planned this entire thing out beforehand.

* Coupled with the IMDB rumor that David Tennant is returning for the season finale, this theory is looking surprisingly likely.

** Of course, a similar rumor also insists the Peter Davison is in the finale, which would throw a pretty big wrench in this theory.

*** And they're not on IMDb any more.

**** Wouldn't that be interfering with his personal timeline? Isn't that against the rules?

* There were two children in the computer (Donna's kids) that were still there listening to River's bedtime story with the library's heiress - Amy and Rory?
