It must have been mentioned in an episode a few weeks ago, because I definitely knew.TimeLord said:How did you come to that conclusion when we only found out the child's name this week?Popadoo said:I worked out she was the daughter a few weeks ago.

Tada!
Also, was it me or at the end did it say 'The Doctor will return in 'Let's Kill Hitler'?!!
WHAT.
I'm still convinced that, that whole saga will have something to do with 'The Flesh' version of the doctor dying.TimeLord said:We still don't know that the person who kills the Doctor is River in the spacesuit. If they wanted to make that connection then they would have shown the girls face in ep1, instead they show a spacesuit with River in it that Amy shoots.
Well a the end of the last episode, the two Doctors joked about him surviving and stealing biscuits. And there was a line in this weeks episode about there being 2 Doctors.

Tricky, since we see the Doctor start to regenerate before he dies. It seems unlikely that the Flesh has that kind of ability, especially since it would require it to create a fresh personality and body on it's own when it's only been shown creating replicas.Matt-the-twat said:I'm still convinced that, that whole saga will have something to do with 'The Flesh' version of the doctor dying.TimeLord said:We still don't know that the person who kills the Doctor is River in the spacesuit.

September? I thought it said he was back in August. Maybe I'm just going crazy.LostTimeLady said:Wow! I am so totally giddy with how brilliant the twist was! Fantastic!
I had wondered why they had so deliberately chosen two main charecters with very similar aquatic type names. Fantastic!
No wonder River can fly the TARDIS, write old high gallifreyan, know the Doctor's name... everything!
So we're watching out for a little blonde girl now are we?
Also, Rory the Roman rocks! He is so amazingly bad-ass it's actually awesome. (Crying Roman, got to love that too).
But nooooooo! We've got to wait until September now! *sigh*

And I believe it said autumn not august im afraid.Agent Larkin said:September? I thought it said he was back in August. Maybe I'm just going crazy.
My one question though.
When Amy asks the Doctor has he ever had children does that mean the Doctor's daughter (not the episode) from the original series is now non-canon?

I always kind of assumed there was much more to regeneration than the biological part, since he gets a fresh personality and so on. It seems far more likely to be tied in with the, as you say, timey-wimey vortex stuff which makes the Timelords so special. I don't know, I may be completely wrong (goodness knows I often am about Doctor Who) I just assumed that the flesh can't copy anything that unique or powerful. At least not without some serious time schism exposure.TimeLord said:But if regeneration is a biological thing and the flesh copies a body exactly.Geo Da Sponge said:Tricky, since we see the Doctor start to regenerate before he dies.

Then... Oh I don't know! It's all a big massive ball of wibbly wobbly timey wimpy.... Stuff!
Yeah, but that was followed by "I have been genetically modified to fulfill all duties of a nurse! I can produce magnificent quantities of lactic fluid at a moments notice!"The SettingSun said:[Anyway, "Human fools! It needs it's diaper changing!" BEST LINE EVER!
Then that's my own fault I always have difficulty (I don't know why) when it comes to the words Autumn and August. I find them indistinguishable at times.Wes1180 said:And I believe it said autumn not august im afraid.Agent Larkin said:September? I thought it said he was back in August. Maybe I'm just going crazy.

Wasn't she his grand-daughter? But hopefully not as tennant said that he had kids. (It was most likely him just not answering)
what about the one after, i can produce prodigious amounts of lactic fluidThe SettingSun said:If I remember correctly the big blue guy was in the first episode of season 2 where Doctor and Rose go to a hospital in new new york. He's a really rich mayor or something and his assistant tells the Doctor and Rose to go away or something.TimeLord said:That does ring a bell, yes.TheRightToArmBears said:Isn't he in one with New New York and the Face Of Boe dying in it?TimeLord said:The blue guy was from "The Pandorica Opens" and I think another episode but I can't think what off the top of my head.weecath77 said:That was pretty awesome,Rory was class in this episode and liked the Sontaran.What episode was the blue guy out of though?
Good twist because I always thought River was the Doctors wife from Silence in the Library episode, but she can read his real name off the cot because she is part timelord.
Have to wait a while for the next one though....roll on new Torchwood!!
I loved this episode. They answered more questions than were raised, which is a refreshing change. I almost shat myself when I realised what was going on.
Anyway, "Human fools! It needs it's diaper changing!" BEST LINE EVER!
Near the beginning of the episode when River is returning to her cell, Rory and River mention two doctors when it came to River saying it was her birthday and Rory wondering if there were two doctors long with some timey stuff then River saying something like, 'that's a different birthday' with that grin of hers.TimeLord said:Well a the end of the last episode, the two Doctors joked about him surviving and stealing biscuits.
