Silences, Rivers and Songs – Series 6 discussion
The spring series of Series 6 has been and gone, but the first action-packed seven episodes have left us a TARDIS load of unanswered questions and unexplained mysteries…
Suffice to say, Steven Moffat has definitely provided us with more than enough to keep our overactive brains occupied until the Doctor returns in Let’s Kill Hitler in the autumn, so let’s get started, shall we? Of course, we now finally know who River really is, but just what is her relationship with the Doctor? And who was the girl in the spacesuit?
Feel free to speculate away on this post, a link to which will be posted on the sidebar so you can check back to see what our other visitors make of all the latest developments.
Episode Thirteen pretty much says that this story (the Doctor’s death) won’t be concluded yet. However, the resolution of Amy’s pregnancy is quite intriguing…
I would hate to spoil it for you all but i must admit that i think the person in the space suit who shot the doctor is River Song.
I hope this isn’t the end of Doctor Who.
I just posted the comment then thought maybe the impossible astronaut might be the silencer. Any thoughts??
im just watching the beast below and ive just seen something that i didnt see before above the tent with the giant scorpiane stinger thing that amy breaks into is there is a sign the says magpie electricals above the road block tent remember magpie from the series 2 episode called the idoits lantern remember the electrical currants that run through the tvs do u think this is linked to the silence as thy use electrical currants too steven moffit did say every series is linked to something greater i read somewere?
@shawn
That was just a reference to the past
From the new trailer released last night: nice to see the Cybermen’s guns are running rather than the rubbish darts in Doomsday.

*returning, not running…
After watching episode 2 and after watching the kiss between the doctor and river. that could suggest that she is the doctors wife or lover. saying that the child who regenerated at the end of episode 2 could be the doctors and rivers daughter,
or the child could be river song making it her past but mking it the doctors futuer
remember river past is the doctors futuer
I’m gonna deny that theory sorry!! But my theory is that the daughter is not only the doctors daughter, but not Rivers, but Amys child, cause she is pregnant, and says I t to the doctor. And maybe this one could be wrong, but could the Daughter regenerate into River Song.
River Song is the Doctor’s mother.
Just thought I’d throw that out there.
Hit the nail on the head, but HOW is it possible for her to regenerate? Was Amy’s pregnancy engineered by the Silence using a cell from a time lord? OR is it the product of the child being conceived on the TARDIS. (Time Head) lol
The little girl who we can say who its definitely not is Jenny but could be the Doctor’s other daughter if its not River. We all know about Jenny but the Doctor said to Donna that he has been a dad before. And the current Doctor is still young enough to bring up another girl.
TimeHead!!
@TE
oh rite thanks for letting me no i thought there was more to it lol
I suspect the child may be river, and also Amy and rory’s child, the conception in the tardis has somehow created another timelier/human metacrisis. No one seems tocomment on rivers time travelling ability, and it would also make you understand why the doctor turns to her, she as nearto him as he can get. His death is probably set up by him to save her as a child.
I think the girl must be something to do with Amy because on the table with all the pictures of the girl there was also a picture of Amy and a bab
Why does the Silence need Amy. Cause when she was trapped, Silence said her purpose is almost over! What’s going to happen to her ? Who was the person in the door at the orphanage sang she’s dreaming
Remember Amy kept telling the Silence (when they captured her) that she just got there. They replied, “You have been here for days.” I believe they took the baby from her then, incubated her and infused her with Time Lord DNA. So I think it is her and Rory’s child, but raised by the silence.
Something tells me that it’s too simple if the child is Amy’s. What if the person in the suit IS the doctor? If he goes back in time and sees himself surely he’d have to destroy one of them otherwise all hell would break lose! Another issue, though. At the beginning of the “Impossible Astronaut” episode, the doctor tell Amy that he’s a couple of hundred years older than she expects. Does this mean we’ve got Matt Smith for another centure? No complaint there, but something doesn’t add up!
