June 20th, 2010 - 3:14pmdavros was only in it last year tho, i think it may be the sycorax saying silence will fall, but then the prisinor 0 said it aswell when he took the body of that woman and 2 children
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 3:12pmoh yeah, and he did get rid of the particuls
and captain jack did,
but i think if they really didn’t want that pandorica, they could of just blasted it
TheCultOfScaro
June 20th, 2010 - 3:11pmall theory aside have to say a big HATS OFF to the writers and directors cos i havn’t wonder so much about anythin in a while lol
TheCultOfScaro
June 20th, 2010 - 3:10pmi thought that originaly, but in a sense the dream lord was just a product of the pshycic particle in the tardis
or was he?
TheCultOfScaro
June 20th, 2010 - 3:07pmthe tardis is suposed to have a device that does not allow weapons to be discharge inside however this has not been the case when captian jack killed a dalek, destroyed the paradox machine and a few other occasions, maybe this is something that can be turned on and off by the doctor and in this case it was simply left on
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 3:07pmi think it could actully be the dreamlord
silence will fall
June 20th, 2010 - 3:06pmwho says silence will fall in the tardis the voice is creepy it might be a evil tardis
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 3:04pmyeah i thought that but i re watched the episode, and the legs were really thin and there was 4
TheCultOfScaro
June 20th, 2010 - 3:03pmi’m abit stumped on the burn marks the “dalek Tardis” did sort of have tripod legs don’t know if this could have done it
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 3:02pmif river song had that gunn why didn’t she just blast the tardis doors down >
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 3:00pmGOOD idea, what els i wanna nois, what made those burn marks on amys grass,
TheCultOfScaro
June 20th, 2010 - 2:57pmwhich might swing back to davros somehow
TheCultOfScaro
June 20th, 2010 - 2:56pmi do believe that the “Tardis” in the Lodger was a dalek ship due to the design of the controls
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 2:55pmi think he might fall through a crack, but i wanna no if the other sorta tardis thing comes into it, cause otherwise it would have been a waste
TheCultOfScaro
June 20th, 2010 - 2:53pmi think Craig defs has the ability to help because assuming when he was in the docs head, the doc would of still been thinking about the cracks in time so then craig would know abut them
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 2:51pmyeah i no i was like what the hell!
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 2:51pmif amy lives, what is ment to be amys time
TheCultOfScaro
June 20th, 2010 - 2:50pmfrom what i understood the cyberhead followed them from out side so there was only one still doesn’t explain how it was there in the first place
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 2:49pmwell i believe she does, and yes your right she does have the book, soo she must know alot that had gone on, and maybe jenny just falls in a crack,
have we thought about craig coming,
cause there was a crack in his house, and he has been in the doctors head she he knows what is going on
doctorwho123
June 20th, 2010 - 2:47pmTHE CRACKS WERE TELLING THE FUTOR OF TIME!
in the first episode through the crack it said, ” the prisinor has escaped” ( the doctor has escaped the pandorica)
in the cold blood, through the crack, there was a peice of the tardis (the tardis was going to exsplode )
TheCultOfScaro
June 20th, 2010 - 2:47pmBut would River know about Jenny and where to find her,
its possible because the future river has the “spoilers book” which means they have had quite a long relationship
Amy + Rory = Love
June 20th, 2010 - 2:46pmI know I keep going on about this but…

mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 2:44pmwhat i didn’t get was, why was there already a cyberman there, and why was there 2 cyberman heads
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 2:44pmwhat if river song teleports and gets her, cause she knows the doctors in the pandorica,
TheCultOfScaro
June 20th, 2010 - 2:39pmAny other opinions/therioes on if/how Jenny (The Docs Daughter) could save the day?
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 2:38pmthey teleported off the ships, thats why there was only like 3 of them
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 2:37pmin the very first epsiode the doctor told young amy something,
and througout the series he has been saying to amy you need to remember what i told you, but i cant tell you, you need to remember,
does this mean amy could save the day if she remembers because the doctor did also say
sometimes if you remember something it can come back
TheCultOfScaro
June 20th, 2010 - 2:34pmRiver did say that there ships were around earth but when the alliance revieled themselves i didn’t see them there?
mattsmith(LL)
June 20th, 2010 - 2:33pmon the first episode in teh craack it said, the prisinor has escaped, that could be the sycorax, saying the doctor has excaped
Purplchick
June 20th, 2010 - 2:33pmHere are the things I think will happen in ‘The Big Bang’
1) River Song will use her time travelling device (used to get back to Stone Henge) to transport herself out of the Tardis which will then explode.
2)The note on the website talks about a girl who still believes in stars and this is almost definately ‘Young Amy.’ She may be brought to stone henge either by River Song’s device or through the crack in her wall. Could the Doctor have spoken to her through a gap in time?
3) River doesn’t know Amy is dead yet so she won’t go back to Amy’s house she’ll go back for the doctor. – The baddies will have left, thinking he is secure but Auton Rory will still be there & meet up with River. (Whether he is the ‘good man’ River kills, I don’t know. I don’t think it will be the doctor, because he won’t die (Matt Smith has only just taken on the role)
4) I think in all probability the older Amy Pond will come back from the dead. There are rumours she’s signed on for the next series and, lets face it, Stephen Moffatt loves her. Personally, I don’t feel like her relationship with Rory was ever believable – it was only in the last few episodes she even seemed to like him. I’d be quite happy if her death was the end of that bungled story line. It never made any sense anyway.
5) So, Old Amy is saved from death, possibly by River & Young Amy, Possibly by a sacrifice from Auton Rory. (Very unlkely Rory will come back for good because if Amy marries him she has no reason to go off travelling with the Doctor again in the next series. Plus I think River Song would make a much better, totally kick ass assistant. Also, is it just me or did future River act strangely when she met Amy, like she knew something bad had happened to her? Anyway… the doctor will be released from the Pandorica with the help of a gang of assistants poss including Liz Ten and Van Gogh, though how, I’m not sure.
6) Of course the whole thing could be set in a future where the Pandorica is legend and the Doctor needs to be discovered by Young Amy but that is problematic because the Tardis exploding is supposed to distroy all of the universe. (PS: there is no way the Tardis can be destroyed for good, esp when they’ve just designed a new one. I don’t think the Beeb have the budget to build a whole new one.)
7) Basicly SM has set up far too many complicated plot lines for all of them to be resolved in a satisfying way. It’s Lost all over again! This series has been far too wooly, with lots of questions left unanswered. It’s a real shame because I like Matt Smith as DR who and I think he deserved better storylines. Amy knew too much about the doctor, far too much and wasn’t believable. – I hope that the last episode makes up for the dissatisfaction of earlier episodes and brings everything together nicely, but somehow I can’t see it happening.
