A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Hmmm. Interesting.
I can't think of any instance when
Amy knows more about the timelines. In fact, she seems resolutely clueless about everything that has to do with her own life.
She's done great things, like
stopping the torture of the Starwhale, but she doesn't seem to have the 'connecting the dots' ability Donna had.
I have to say though, if there is a series of
visits/timeline points we have not been privy to,
I think I'll be peeved. I'm only good at puzzles, the pieces of which, I can actually see.
Re: Jars' whitefonted list:
"why do the dates of her life not match up (missing Daleks? Date on Rory's work badge)" -- Can someone refresh my memory about the date on Rory's work badge?
Kate, look at this picture and do the math.
According to what I've read,
all of the cars in the village are 90s models.
It appears to be too unlikely to be anything other than a deliberate production choice.
Also, in "Amy's Choice", the Doctor's
subconscious referred to it as
"The Village that Time Forgot". Which sounded like snark, but it could have a deeper meaning.
TomW's theory is that
it's all about the DUCK POND WITHOUT DUCKS
that hearkens back to the first ep of the series.
Hold on, about River: we know she did something wrong. We know the Evil-League-of-Evil-Alliance stopped the Doctor from destroying the universe, and that it had to do with the presumption that he and he alone can pilot the TARDIS (speaking of which: pilot as a verb is new to me). Maybe the thing she's paying on and the thing the Doctor can't know about because he'll never trust her again (or something like it) is her destroying (somehow) the universe/TARDIS/killing Amy/whatever.
And I never did understand how her timeline works, anyhow. She knows some things before she's supposed to know them - mostly in this ep.
DW UK:
Oh, the
duck pond without any ducks is totally significant. As is the fact that we've never seen Amy's aunt.
Nora, the Doctor specifically made reference to that in the Angels episode, so I'd agree that it's important. And Tom, that's very cool about the
cars!!
If, in fact,
Leadworth is actually in the nineties, that would explain why Amy doesn't "remember" the Daleks. Because it hadn't happened yet.
