If it’s collective wishes emerging from Wild Blue Yonder then why did the Doctor narrate a completely different reason for the return of life itself? That  “ memory is life ?”

Well, the only possible explanation is it’s VR.

Ruby (and Bill before her) were deserted. The Doctor was deserted and abused. His mind has been wiped several times. This is someone examining the fluff in Doctor’s navel… like ‘Extremis’ but based on The Doctor. The Doctor is ultimately being turned ag…[Read more]
