Doctor Who:
Jon, that better not happen. NO TOUCHING RORY.
You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I think River is talking about killing the Doctor. Which is why she's in Stormcage.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I'm with you, Dana! Aims, it's odd to say this, but I hope you're right! Because we know the Doctor can't stay dead but Rory could. I'm not sure why her being in Stormcage is relevant, though. Depending on the circumstances, why wouldn't killing Rory also get her there?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
That's been the most obvious implication, though. So Moffat will likely twist it. UNLESS I was right about River being in the astronaut suit. When River shoots at the astronaut and misses, she says, "Of course." She doesn't seem to act as if she knew who had killed the Doctor in that scene, but she also never let on that Amy and Rory were her parents, so clearly she's very good at not talking about things until she's supposed to.

Spoilers.
I think she would go to Stormcage because a war criminal charge? If she's raised to be the killer of the Doctor in the name of the war with the Army of God, and after the war is over, she could be brought up on charges by ... whoever charges her?
I don't know. I'm pissed at Em and Joe for getting me into this show, I tell ya. I'm way to linear for this whole wibbly wobley timey wimey crap. I feel like I'm constantly talking about how many Deloreans were in 1955.

DW E07: The way River acted when Rory came to recruit her -- her warmth towards him -- made me wonder if this was the first time in her timeline that she'd met him where she knew he was her father (I'm assuming that if she did kill him, she didn't know or believe who he was).

All is well that ends in pizza.
Agh!
Dr Who Ep 7 again
I just remembered that at the beginning of the ep River was coming back to Stormcage after the Doctor taking her out for her Birthday. Duh!

Art Crawl!!!
So - are you talking about the mid-season finale?
I have no idea what number the BBCA episode was tonight.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Dan, when did the Doctor take her out for her birthday? Does that mean we didn't move backwards in her timeline as we've been doing up 'til now?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Sumi -- BBCA aired episode 6 tonight while BBC UK aired episode 7, the mid-season finale. We're talking about the latter. The former doesn't need white-fonting.
