| Why is it now assumed that Rory Williams is Amy Pond's fiance? There is no evidence for this. All we know is that Rory is Amy's "sort of" boyfriend, and that two years later she is engaged to someone who MIGHT be Rory, but we don't actually KNOW. Stop writing this as if it is undoubted fact, when it is NOT.

| The 'Vampires in Venice' script leak heavily implies that it's Amy and Rory getting married and the trip to Venice is a wedding present. So there is evidence for it. I do agree though that articles shouldn't bear this kind of info unless in a rumours section until broadcast.[[Special:Contributions/86.134.188.188|86.134.188.188]] 12:13, April 20, 2010 (UTC)

| ::Yep, I know of the leaked script. But the point is we can't go off of stuff like that, cause we only have a portion. Even if that does actually make it into the final edit, and there's evidence that it probably does from various trailers, it's not necessarily so straightforward. For instance, Amy could have been engaged to him, given him back the ring, gotten engaged to someone else. The Doctor could believe that she made a mistake, so he's taking Rory along to give them a chance to rekindle their relationship.

| | :: It hasn't. And it's also been pointed out that the tombstone looks rather old for something that supposedly dates to the late 1980s. All we know is that Amy was still alive at the time the novel was written (that or River located her in time in order for her to write the forward). It's possible the novella ''The Angel's Kiss'' might shed some light.

| Rory's badge, which they zoomed in on purpose: Date of issue: 30,11, 1990

| This would mean Rory has been a nurse for 18-20 years. He said he was made to dress up as the Raggedy Doctor when 'we were kids' to Amy Pond. To go through schooling and become a nurse, he'd have to be 20 or so years old. This would mean that he is roughly 40 in the main portion of the story? I don't think so. We never see the date, and only see cell phones and laptops which indicate it is near 2010. Either Rory has a false ID (he was also in the coma ward, when his ID says emergency ward), Rory is impossibly older than he should be, or something is out-of-time with technology. The doctor notices the camera phones, and notices Rory's 1990 issued badge.

| | == "The Pretty One" == |
|
| |
|
| | There is an error in the main aliases for Rory Williams. It indicates that he was known as "The pretty one". That actually refers to the character in the Eleventh Hour who had the laptop. When told by Amy that she was getting married The Doctor asks "The pretty one or..." and makes the sign with his hand indicating the guy with the big nose and says "the other one?" She says "The other one". |

|
| Is something up with Rory, time / technology, or the Doctor himself?

| *The production error is a killer, but my mind is saying that the Doctor was still "cooking", so his brain isn't functioning correctly. Which is why he saw 1990 instead of another number. That's how I'm choosing to see it. [[User:Mc hammark|Mc hammark]] 08:56, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

| Maybe the person who printed the badge at the hospital made a typo and didn't notice. When Rory noticed and asked for a new one they couldn't be bothered to reprint and laminate just for a few digits so they told him to tipex it but, shock horror, he couldn't find any.

| :Think about how old he would have to be if the badge was issued 20 years prior to the current date. Let's say 4 years of training as a nurse, and he would have had to be at least 16 at that point, making him 40 in 2010. He was a childhood friend of Amy Pond, and she is 21 years old (born 1989) in 2010. That's why there's that section at the bottom.

| Quote from the article, "...in the same latter episode, the clock in Amy's bedroom jumped from 11:59am June 25th to 12pm June 26th, one entire day missed in one second - and it was night time outside." Was it definately 11:59am to 12pm or could it just be a continuity error where the am and pm bits were mixed up, would make more sense. Also see the fact that it's night outside lending towards the clock meaning to show 11:59 pm June 25th - 12 am June 26th.

| Oh My God! Don't you get it. The person is removed from time. All other events up until then happen still, they are just forgotten about.

| *On the subject of his return, we know that the cracks erase people from time, and that they can allow passage, so why not both?

| *But wwhat about that piece of the TARDIS, what was it doing in the crack. Does that mean it was the source of the crack and that piece of the TARDIS was shrapnel from an explosion. Could the Doctor be indirectly responsible for Rory's erasure ~Serial-Doodler~
| |
| | |
| == Rory gone forever? ==
| |
| | |
| In Cold Blood Rory is supposedly wiped from existance by the crack, no-one remembers him but the Doctor (despite his efforts to stop Amy forgetting him). But, there are rumours he'll appear in the season finale plus the fact that at the beginning of Cold Blood he placed the engagement ring in the TARDIS. Perhaps it'll be used in some way to bring him back as the TARDIS usually remains unaffected by changes in the timestream and they wouldn't just show us it for nothing, would they...<br />
| |
| Exactly what i was thinking, but its just speculation for now.
| |
| | |
| : It is highly likely that Rory is coming back, for more reason than narrative imperative and the fact that we've seen him in a trailer. A future version of Rory was seen at the beginning of [[The Hungry Earth]], unless the Doctor was lying. Now I can quite believe that Rory's future timeline would be wiped at the same time as his past timeline when he was swallowed by the crack - however, if the crack hadn't been there Rory would still have been killed by Restac (I don't believe he would have survived even if he hadn't been next to it). So the Rory that was seen at the beginning of The Hungry Earth has either already been reclaimed from the crack (in which case the crack saved his life in some manner), or is a completely different version fetched from a version of reality where he never got killed or consumed by the crack in the first place. There is no reason to believe that the future Rory wasn't there at the end of [[Cold Blood]] - he might have been hiding, or been absent for some other reason when Amy and the Doctor came out of the TARDIS.
| |
| I've just noticed something else though, you know that Amy's supposed to be orpharned and lived with her aunt, well it's been comfirmed that Amy's mum will be starring in the series finale along with River Song, the Tenth Doctor and Rory.
| |
| | |
| : I think it goes without saying that Rory will be back in some capacity to be honest, they made too much of a big deal of showing him put the engadgement ring in the TARDIS and the Doctor's reaction to it after Amy has forgotten Rory. And on a side note, do try and remember to sign your posts please :) <span style="color:green;">'''Lyco'''</span> 03:10, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

| | |
| ::The fact that future Rory was seen at the start of [[The Hungry Earth]] doesn't mean anything. The Doctor explains as much to Amy--they future Amy and Rory she saw are just one possible future, and history can change. And at the end of [[Cold Blood]], after Amy has forgotten Rory, she sees only herself waving (although she briefly thought she saw someone else), and remembers only having seen herself earlier.
| |
| | |
| ::If you want to know about spoilers (and presumably you do, or you wouldn't be asking what's going to happen later), Arthur Darvill (who plays Rory) has been photographed on the set of episode 13, [[The Big Bang]], at or near Stonehenge in Roman Britain in 102 AD, wearing what's been described as "Roman armor" and "a Roman auxiliary uniform". This doesn't prove that he's playing Rory--he could be some ancient relative of Rory, or just some guy who happens to look like him--but the obvious guess seems to be that Rory actually went back in time to the opening of the Pandorica (which is hidden inside Stonehenge) rather than being erased from time. | |

| ==Rory vs. Mickey==
| |
| The article says:
| |
| :Rory and Mickey also share personality traits, as Rory's clumsy nature (usually offering comic relief) and the Doctor's attitude towards him is near-identical with that of Mickey in his early appearances.
| |
| | |
| Nothing about this is accurate. The only thing they have in common is the fear that they're going to lose their girlfriend to the Doctor.
| |
| | |
| Their personalities are totally different--Rory is an agitated nerd, Mickey is a depressive mopey whiner. Mickey desperately wants everyone to think he's hard; Rory doesn't give a damn about that.
| |
| | |
| As for clumsiness--Mickey may be cowardly, clingy, childish, and a lot of other c's, but he's not clumsy. His athleticism, and occasionally even grace, is the only thing he really has going for him, while Rory lacks that completely. Beyond physicality, Rory clumsily blurts out uncomfortable things, but Mickey doesn't do this--he barely says anything other than to whine and then cringe like a whipped puppy and mutter to himself if anyone pays attention.
| |
| | |
| And the Doctor doesn't treat them at all the same. Mickey is treated as if he were a romantic rival, or as if he would be if he weren't so beneath the Doctor's contempt. Rory, on the other hand, is treated more like a daughter's suitor. The Doctor first wants to find out if Rory's good enough for his little Amy, tests him briefly, quickly decides that he likes this one, and then starts trying to help.
| |
| | |
| Also, the Doctor treats Mickey like an idiot--in fact, calls him "Mickey the Idiot", something he never does with Rory. In fact, the first thing he notices about Rory is that he's doing something clever, photographing an anomalous man and dog instead of the dying Sun. Yeah, he's brusque with Rory, but he's equally brusque with Amy, and everyone else. He asks for Rory's opinion as much as anyone else (which one does he grab at the end of VoV?), and in fact tells him to shut up _less_ than he does to Amy.
| |
| | |
| So, I'm going to remove this. --[[User:Falcotron|Falcotron]] 06:14, June 4, 2010 (UTC)
