| | Who is the actor who appears in the voting booth video? |
| I think I have the answers to most of these questions/suggestions/comments.
| |
| #A "simple fly-by" may not have actually revealed the star whale, as I think the hull was actually built around it, shutting it in.
| |
| #The water didn't vibrate on the floor ''or ''on the table, and that was why the Doctor was confused. Also, the area where everybody lived and worked may have been blocked off from the engine zone, but the Doctor probably just didn't care. It never shows or says that it isn't buffered away. Finally, the humans were trying to find a new planet, so they were going somewhere. They just didn't know where that somewhere was. Also, they needed to find that somewhere so that they could re-stock. Ever read <u>The City of Ember</u>? The situation would have kind have been like that, so they needed to find the new planet fast, before they all starved to death.

| #Ah, here's a tricky one. You see, they were humans. Sadly, we humans seem to have very little regard for things that are not like us (not unlike the Daleks. Good luck sleeping!), and I think the thought never really occured to them that it could have come out of pity for the human race to save them. However, this brings us to another question (the tricky part), one that I would like somebody to answer: '''Why were Britain, Wales and Ireland the only countries in the whole wide world who couldn't just build a ship with a proper engine?!?!? '''So, yeah. If any philosophers out there have the answer to that question, please answer it. Now the rest. The ship, in all probability, wouldn't have ''disintegrated'', but it would have been fragmented. As I said earlier, I'm rather sure the ship was built around the star whale, and it was also anchored together by the star whale. However, when the star whale stays, it keeps all the stuff on its back from falling to bits. I also think the reason Hawthorn didn't need a memory wipe was that he seemed like a rather emotionless person anyway and was unlikely to have emotional trauma. Also, I think he worked in the Tower of London, and so he would have seen the exposed brain and everything all the time, so unless they wanted to give him a memory wipe every five seconds, (which would prevent him from doing his job) he simply had to know.
| |
| #The Doctor probably didn't know about the star whale because: a) The facts were never made public and so he could not have found that out, or b) he did not think to research how it moved because he simply assumed it had an engine.

| There you go! Hope I've been a help.

| This adventure toke place immediately after the Doctor scared off the Atraxi and toke the TARDIS for a test drive to break in the new engines. I'm guessing that it's still the first fifteen hours of his post-regenration, where he can heal severed limbs and minor injures easily like the Tenth Doctor did.

| :I personally don't really see the relevance. He didn't suffer any injuries in this episode. Unlike [[River Song|River]] and the [[Tenth Doctor]], the [[Eleventh Doctor]] didn't used this to his advantage.
