May 31st, 2011 - 7:43pmThat Is A Reference To The Fact That Amy Told Human Doctor How He Died, But She Thought She Was Telling Flesh Doctor.
Alf
May 31st, 2011 - 6:18pmDid you also notice that during the final dialogue between the two doctors the flesh one said ‘So my death arrives’
and the doctor replies ‘but we’re not invited to this one!’

May 31st, 2011 - 6:12pmIn ‘confidential’ it was said that Amy has been a ganger in all 6 episodes which means she must have been taken before the events right at the start of The Impossible Astronaut.
The Xmas special was set during Amy & Rory’s honeymoon and the S5 finale ended with their wedding so, unless she was taken during the unseen period between the events of Xmas and Impossible Astronaut, she was taken sometime during S5.. Is it possible that Rory married the ganger??

May 31st, 2011 - 5:56pmSomething been niggling me for some time.
(The only water in the forest is the river)
Is this a reference to the Weeping Angels episode where Amy was all alone in the forest with here eyes closed?
Point being Amy might have been kidnapped during this episode and swapped for a “Ganger”. Leaving River being the only “Water in the forest”.
Human’s being 70% water and all that.
Just a mad theory!

May 31st, 2011 - 5:26pmJust finished watching, Silence In The Library and Forest Of The Dead, and i’m thinking…
“That’s great, so why can’t Steven not write episodes like these.”
It feels that he’s lost his touch.

May 31st, 2011 - 2:24pmfinally someone on my wave length. in my opinion there has only been one good episode in the whole season, and that was the Doctor’s Wife.

May 31st, 2011 - 12:04pmwell it could of been that woman in the hatch
The Master
May 31st, 2011 - 11:53amDid Anyone Notice When Amy Was Giving Flesh Doctor A Hug, He Said “Push Amy, When She Tells You To, Push” I Don’t Know How He Could Of Known.

May 31st, 2011 - 10:42amLoved the ending but I dont see how the person with the ballon in the first trailer will fit in with the next episode and there that beastly thing as well.

May 31st, 2011 - 10:04ami don’t know but it was one of the best clifhangers yet

May 31st, 2011 - 9:42amGreat episode and I’m loving the more complex sci-fi storylines. However, one gripe of this series so far – where are the monsters?
The Silence are great but then we have a human avatar doctor (black spot), a green smoke (doctor’s wife) and more human avatars (rebel flesh.) So with the exception of a green eyed Ood where’s the creative aliens, I’m starting to miss them.

May 30th, 2011 - 10:07pmI’m 37 and have watching the re-launched show since it restarted. In my humble opinion, this season (so far) has been the best I’ve ever seen!
It’s proper ‘Who’ – my 9yo is spooked but really enjoying the twists and turns. It’s about time didn’t treat children as ‘cotton-wool clad idiots’ – more of the same please!

May 30th, 2011 - 9:35pmThe baby is a girl that is all that has been confirmed (well that and her name “Melody”). It’s not The Doctor, unless you got it the wrong way round and either Amy or Rory are the Doctor.

May 30th, 2011 - 6:43pmi saw this too its about time so it seems
BowTieMadJacob
May 30th, 2011 - 2:33pmHey guys I wouldn’t say the almost people was the best episode ever but the cliffhanger was certainly the most concluding.
Also I think that River Song is Amys daughter because theres been little clues through-out the series that Amys pregnant but in the doctors wife idris said the only water in the forest is the river and river song so yeah. 😀

May 30th, 2011 - 2:23pmThe gangers the Doctor fought for, were “an early version” of the technology. They came to life unintentionally.
I am guessing the ganger that Amy was, was a more advanced version that was not alive in its own right. This kind of ganger is what the company (Morpeth thingy) intended to make, and presumably did manage to make once they were aware of the “living problem” of the earlier versions.

May 30th, 2011 - 2:23pmat the end of the almost people, the eye patch lady looked different than before, her cheeks were more ‘fat’ must have been theb camera angels or something.

May 30th, 2011 - 2:20pmSo Amy has a baby with Rory (hopefully Rory) which turns out to be Riversong, the Doctor and Riversong meet, fall in love and have a baby who is the little girl in the astronaut suit. River says she kills a good man which muust be the Doctor and so far the astronaut has killed the Doctor so River must be the astronaut and the little girl but then again the little girl regenerated and river cant regenerate because she’s human so therefore the little girl must be someone else. I cant keep up. I guess all will be revealed in 5 days.

May 30th, 2011 - 12:54amVery complicated-I feel as if I need to watch the whole series again- I hate not being able to work things out! And I don’t find it scary, which is odd, as my 61 year old husband and 30 year old son do!
gwynneth
May 30th, 2011 - 12:52amIt has all got a lot too complicated-you need to be a super brain to work it all out! I feel as if I need to watch it all again just to catch up!
And I don’t understand why I don’t find it scary when my 61 year old husband and 30 year old son both do!

May 29th, 2011 - 10:02pm@ The Master. Yes he does
MORLU
May 29th, 2011 - 9:37pmYeah. Just saw the trailer for next weeks episode there is a line where the doctor says “the baby is not a weapon” and some one else says “she will be” or something like that.
So she must be River.
Max
May 29th, 2011 - 9:25pmI think the baby is river
