New Series of Dr Who

[Lord Camomile]

And then using "physics!" to save the day

 

[Stigmata]

As it's supposed to happen on Amy's wedding day, I reckon it might be some attempt to bring back Rory that sets it all off.

Also re plot holes: if you have the TARDIS it's not as though Syal and the Welsh guy are going to have to stay trapped underground is it?

Actually disregard, I watched it again and understood the situation better.

As for the screwdriver, it's pretty clear that some writers like to use it more than others. And in that episode it offered a nice explanation as to why the humans of the future generally stick with conventional firearms rather than fancy electronic death rays.

 

[rollinder]

Or Adric as a crotchety drunken pensioner.

they'd have to go back and scrape him off some dinosaur corpses first

 

[rollinder]

if they try bringing back rory from the crack, remember he still got shot and died in the real world. you'd just be bringing back a corpse.

well it worked for Owen in Torchwood...kind-of...for a bit....

 

[fogbat]

There was another bit on Saturday's episode where Rory seemed strangely knowledgeable about high-tech stuff. I doubt we've seen the last of him.

 

[SpookyFrank]

well it worked for Owen in Torchwood...kind-of...for a bit....

Well thanks for reminding me of that fucking terrible storyline

 

[The Master]

oh yea that wasnt the best, lol
it can't be the last of rory and im sure they will be able to bring him back somehow

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

the way the light came and took him it deffo looked like a carrying off rather than an erasing

 

[TAE]

So ... the girl cannot remember the daleks because of the crack, the crack erases things from history, the doctor cannot remember the girl's blokey because of the crack.

Now ... why can the doctor remember the daleks?

 

[Lord Camomile]

Now ... why can the doctor remember the daleks?

I'm not sure if your first premise, "the girl cannot remember the daleks because of the crack", is wholly accurate. Have we definitely decided that's why she can't remember them, or just theorised

 

[strung out]

the doctor can remember the girl's bloke

The Doctor does remember Rory.

 

[danny la rouge]

The Doctor does remember Rory.

Who?

 

[Lord Camomile]

Does he? Why doesn't he just tell Amy about him then

This bloody programme And it's for kids?!

 

[krtek a houby]

Does he? Why doesn't he just tell Amy about him then

This bloody programme And it's for kids?!

But he does, he tries to get her remember him, remember?

 

[strung out]

Does he? Why doesn't he just tell Amy about him then

because amy would just go 'who?'

The Doctor does remember Rory.

 

[Lord Camomile]

But he does, he tries to get her remember him, remember?

While it was happening, but then once he'd finally been erased they both acted like nothing had happened. The Doc seemed concerned or something when Amy waved to just herself, but it wasn't clear that it was because he remembered Rory.

Not to me anyway

 

[krtek a houby]

because amy would just go 'who?'

No, she'd go "Doctor?"

 

[Lord Camomile]

because amy would just go 'who?'

And then he would explain...?

 

[fogbat]

But he does, he tries to get her remember him, remember?

And when he's forgotten, he compassionately leaves her to it, because he's nice like that. But remains saddened and worried himself.

The whole "You're a timetraveller now, so you'll remember those things that are lost, oh, except this time, because you're personally involved" rule is a bit crap, though.

 

[spanglechick]

because amy would just go 'who?'

and it would be incredibly distressing. at least this way she's happy.

 

[Lord Camomile]

and it would be incredibly distressing. at least this way she's happy.

Except that while Rory was being erased the Doctor was frantically trying to get Amy to hold on to the memory of Rory. Bit of a quick change of heart otherwise?

 

[Iguana]

He was upset that Amy didn't remember and had to play along with her as what good would it have done to tell her all about her fiance who just died but she has no memory of.

 

[fogbat]

Except that while Rory was being erased the Doctor was frantically trying to get Amy to hold on to the memory of Rory. Bit of a quick change of heart otherwise?

While she had a chance of remembering him, it was worth attempting. Now he's forgotten, why upset her?

 

[innit]

He was upset that Amy didn't remember and had to play along with her as what good would it have done to tell her all about her fiance who just died but she has no memory of.

Where do you get that from?

It just looked like they both forgot him.

 

[krtek a houby]

Where do you get that from?

It just looked like they both forgot him.

Only Amy forgot. The Doctor remembers. Bloody hell, he was able to stick his hand in the crack and pull something out...

 

[Iguana]

Where do you get that from?

It just looked like they both forgot him.

From the completely obvious way it was played in the episode.

Because she's living a lie

From the completely obvious way it was played in the episode.

I have been known to miss the bleedin' obvious, from time to time

 

[innit]

don't buy it.
