As a lurker and highly infrequent contributer, after going through the 644 entries on the Guardian blog and the 119 here – a massive thank you to everyone for constantly adding so much to the whole experience and to @craig for setting this up! 😀
About the episode itself –
– I’m glad that @chickenelly also mentioned the way Clara fell on The Doctor – a striking reminder of River.
–@blenkinsopthebrave regarding Forest of the Dead, (the name knowing maybe for identity rather than child reasons? )…ach the dialogue is very open ended-
“Time can be rewritten!”
“Not those times. Not one line! Don’t you dare! You watch us run.”
“River, you know my name. There’s only one reason I would ever tell anyone my name. There’s only one time I could…”
10th Doctor and River Song [4×09 – Forest of the Dead]
It seems that themes of Memory, Identity, Family (and 4th wallness? ) may be key and I for one can’t wait to see (and speculate) how it’ll all come together 🙂
