Myles Wrote:3 hours and 10mins, guys!

Anyone see what the last episode in the series is called? "The Wedding of River Song".

I hope it's not River + The Doctor like I've predicted as yano, that's far too predictable.

Did anyone else notice this?

Also I enjoyed the flashback in the episode. River's epic, so overall I had to say the episode was relatively entertaining, but it was kind of a let down. It wasn't as exciting as I had hoped it would be.

@IllegallySane: It could still be a past regeneration. It seemed as if she was able to control her regenerations just as the Master can control his. So maybe when she was a toddler she was older than we would have expected?

 Episode 8

Why do I feel like we've been taken on a detour to get more lives for the Doctor?

I'd be very disappointed if all it takes is 1 episode to "fix" Melody's brainwashing and alleged psychopathy. Especially since all that had happened was Melody being impressed by the Doctor writhing determinedly on the floor and suddenly deciding to take her parent's word seriously.

Still looking forward to the rest of the season and seeing more of the Silence, and hopefully some further explanations about the Flesh.


I just sort of assumed that Eye Patch Lady couldn't be River, because otherwise she'd end up holding her infant self and that usually causes pyrotechnics to go off. River herself refused to show up until after the baby had gone. But then I do remember a shot of River wearing an eye patch in the trailer... Maybe the eyepatch is some sort of equipment used by members of the Silence?

Also, we've seen The Doctor die as Matt Smith, pretty much ruling out any more regenerations. But, The Doctor, Amy and Rory are confirmed for the next season so we know they all survive this half of a series :/. I wish Karen didn't leak that tbh.

Yeah, The Silence is a religion who are against The Doctor. River can age (as proven when Mels grows from a child, to a teenager, to an adult) so the eyepatch lady COULD in fact be River when she's aged a lot. She was only part time-lord and has lost that part now. We still have a lot of River to catch up on.

Why is she in prison? She said she killed the greatest man she knew.
Why did The Doctor tell her his name? He only tells people he trusts 110%. Linked with the last episode name; "The Wedding of River Song".
Why has she turned to the silence, if the eyepatch is for them, or is she undercover?
