The blue guy (in my view), doesn't actually say it's the doctors baby. He says 'do you know who's child that is. Now that could just be a ref to it being Amy's baby and that he knows full well that trying to take that will enrage the doctor. I'm hoping that it is not a ganger doctor killed in ep1, that, as others have said, is way too obvious and to easy in terms of a cop out. I'm also not sure about the baby being River. I seem to remember that in DTs run as Dr River alludes to being his wife at some point in the future, though I could be mis-remembering that. Don't currently have access to the episodes (Silence in the Library and Forest of the Dead) to go back and check. I'm also starting to wonder if there is a load of misdirection in terms of River 'killing a good man'. Is this again something that is just far too obvious. It's been suggested that it could be Rory, but I don't think so given future listings. Is there someone else that we're missing? I don't have any suggestions, am just wondering!

Like River told her she couldn't tell. But what would he do about it? Why did it matter whether or not Amy told the Doctor he was going to die? Like River told her she couldn’t tell.

I'm assuming they both had a screwdriver because as said earlier in the story, the flesh can copy everything, even clothes - so it's reasonable that it copied the sonic screwdriver too.

Just want to be clear, did Amy tell the real Doctor that he was going to die? Also, how come both of the DOctors had a sonic screwdirver? Does he carry around mutiples now? Brilliant episode :) Hi guys! Just want to be clear, did Amy tell the real Doctor that he was going to die? Also, how come both of the DOctors had a sonic screwdirver?

I'm not sure about River Song being Amy's child because she kissed the doctor and if he is the father that would make him River Song's dad, and they in a relationship in the future so that can't be right. Also, why would they advertise it as a big shock about Amy's pregnancy if it was Rory's, it would be normal, so that is another reason I think it is the Doctors (unless it is a double bluff) I think it would be an exciting twist to the story and just because they had a child it doesn't mean they have to get married andso it wouldn't finish the story ! I think overall this would be a good idea .... but we will have to wait and see ............ :) I think that the doctor could be the father because why would he have scanned her if not.

How can he be the one who is killed in the first episode? And the Doctor who was killed in the first episode started to regenerate before he was killed again. Can the Ganger regenerate? We know that Jenny (the Doctor's daughter) doesn't regenerate in that same way and she's a clone of sorts. I suppose it's possible that the Doctor creates a second Ganger of himself to be killed. Is that too obvious for Moffat though? Maybe it's some sort of double bluff... we think it's too obvious so we don't believe it and then it turns out to be true. :P haha The Ganger Doctor was clearly disintegrated by the sonic screwdriver along with the Ganger Cleaves and Ganger/monster Jennifer.
