| |
| The Dream Lord was just the "bad side" of the doctor, if you remember, so the rumour doesn't make ANY sense.

| Until it confirmed and the episode airs it is hard to determine which aliens who are appearing will be a villain/enemy so I have placed all confirmed appearances of previous aliens in the story notes section until it is actually confirmed who will be the villains as it helps to stop people messing with the infobox. -- [[User:Michael Downey|Michael Downey]] 11:54, May 22, 2010 (UTC).

| ==Monster Names==

| == Rory ==
| |
| | |
| Why did someone remove Rory from the cast? We know he's appearing. Weren't there even pictures of him in it? He may have died, but still: wibbly wobbly timey wimey. --[[User:Golden Monkey|Golden Monkey]] 20:35, May 29, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| I bet there is evidence that Rory is gonna appear (not that I took him off cast) but wherez the evidence? ~ [[User:BillyWilliam3rd|BillyWilliam3rd]]
| |
| | |
| :I'm not sure who removed him here. I added him, with a reference, at the same time I removed him from episode 12 (because all of the spoilery evidence given for him was from episode 13, not 12).
| |
| | |
| :However, thinking about it some more, we don't actually have confirmation (at least in any of the spoilers I've seen) that Rory appears in episode 13. There are pictures confirming that ''Arthur Darvill'' appears, in Roman armor (one source specifically says Roman auxiliary armor), but that doesn't prove that he's Rory. Sure, it seems the most likely explanation, but think of Princess Astra and Romana II, Maxil and the 6th Doctor, Gwynneth and Gwen, Adeola and Martha, the Soothsayer and Amy Pond, and probably more that I've forgotten. In many cases, there's a connection of some kind between the characters (Romana deliberately patterning herself on Astra, Martha having a Patty-Duke-like identical cousin, Gwen having a not-genetic-relative-but-some-weird-rifty-thing, etc.), but in some there's not even that.
| |
| | |
| :Still, it seems reasonable to at the very least least add Arthur Darvill to the Cast playing "TBA (possibly Rory Williams)", with the same reference that he had before, and then put some discussion of whether he's Rory or not in the Rumours section.
| |
| | |
| :Alternatively, I'd list him as Rory, and then add a Rumour that he might be some character other than Rory. After all, it's always possible that even the 11th Doctor won't be there and Matt Smith will just happen to be playing some random character. How far do we have to go with our skepticism? --[[User:Falcotron|Falcotron]] 10:44, May 30, 2010 (UTC)

| == Shots of filming ==
| |
| | |
| Without trying to throw out spoilers, a couple of leaked filming shots snuck out today on a few websites show Patrick Stewart's presence clearly on the set for this episode...what's the policy of posting in regards to such matters? Are we a) not allowed to mention, b) allowed to mention and source c) post the images proper and mention. Ostensibly, I'll do whatever the guidance is....unless someone sees the shots before me and gets there first! [[User:Roger Dangerfield|Roger Dangerfield]] 11:23, May 30, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| :There's already a big giant spoiler warning at the top of the page, and the article is already full of spoilers and even random rumours. So, don't worry about adding it. And definitely source it.
| |
| | |
| :The only question is how reliable the source is, and how clear it is that Patrick Stewart is in the episode vs., say, just visiting the set. Make the best guess you can on those questions and decide whether to put it in Rumours or to add him to the Cast. --[[User:Falcotron|Falcotron]] 11:55, May 30, 2010 (UTC)

| ::One more question: Does he look like he's dressed as the Meddling Monk?

| == Theory ==
| |
| | |
| I think that Amy, as a child, may have to "think away" the other aliens etc, and the Doctor free, as the summary says "The only hope for all of reality is a little girl....", however, this is only my theory. :P Because the alliance used Amy's memories of Romans and Pandora's Box to create the scenario, therefore, if Amy thinks of a different ending... It'll happen. :P ~Random non-member, came to add my thoughts. ^^

| Something no one noticed but was shown in The Lodger: head-butt! Remember, he bumped heads and communicated a lot of info real fast? Just looked at the scene in Flesh & Stone and the Doctor gently bumps his head several times to Amy's and tells her to remember. I think he passed her a lot of information to help him be remembered by Amy. [[User:Lmb02|Lmb02]] 05:05, June 19, 2010 (UTC)

| ==Let's keep rumours clean.==
| |
| It's flood with random fan speculation that isn't based on anything, or very little. Or far-ferfetched. The only heavily rumoured ultimate enemy of the finale are the Doctor and Omega, and that is based on quite a bit of released into and spoilers, so it has a right to be an official rumour on the page. The description of what is inside the Pandorica fits the description of the Doctor... and he is shown being dragged to the Pandorica in a released picture most have seen by now. There has been a opular rumour that Omega in returning, too, and some reliable spoiler people on Gallifrey Base (these are people who, in all honestly, know quite a way ahead, some see unreleased pictures earlier on, ect..) may not know if the rumour is true or not, but they mostly say it is possibly -- nothing even they know suggests it can't be.
| |
| | |
| But ridiculous things such as the Master, who left in, what, January and the very last finale... already? Besides, that's one of those silly random fan-boy-fueled rumours that aren't based on anything, be it set reports, spoilers, or episode information. Let's keep it at individuals who are heavily rumoured, and not just fanboy wants. [[User:Delton Menace|Delton Menace]] 22:44, June 13, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| Yes this is similair to the enemy section. I have repeatedly kept it as "TBC" as even though there are many aliens/monsters mentioned and confirmed to appear, nothing is confirmed whether they are to play an enemy part so until Saturday or proper confirmation this should be kept clean. -- [[User:Michael Downey|Michael Downey]] 23:50, June 13, 2010 (UTC).
| |
| | |
| Yeah, it should be noted that some of the aliens featured in the finale don't have large roles (there are too many for them all to have notable roles!), just that there is appearances. All together, gathering at Stonehenge. An interview I found linked to on a Gallifrey Base friend even notes that the Daleks and Cybermen aren't even big players in the finale, or something like that. They play a part, obviously, but they're not the shine of the episodes. Their role is just bigger than that of the other's. Good you kept the enemies part clean, because... info is really implying it's not everyone vs. the Doctor. Well, sort of. But it is safe to say something else is going on, and none of us have any idea what it really is. Hence, I'm expecting one, true enemy, who is currently not confirmed.

| == Moffat's "cheeky" Regeneration solution? ==
| |
| | |
| Moffat was quoted as saying he was going to solve the problem of the Doctor running out of regenerations in a "cheeky" way. And from what I understood, it would be in this series. And with this being the last part of this series, I would guess it gets solved in this episode. And likely by (we presume it's) Amelia thinking a change of some sort (as it seems Amy's childhood and thoughts are the building blocks of the reality... this better not end like "St. Elsewhere" did, where the whole show was an autistic kid's dream)..
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| Just wondering if anyone has heard any more on what the "cheeky" solution is. I'm hoping it's not by saying one or more regenerations never happened. Still, it's an impending problem for the show, and better to solve it now than wait until they've run out of regenerations and require an even greater suspension of disbelief than fans would allow.

| |
| | |
| *A new Dalek will be seen, a Stone Dalek. ''Or, less absurdly, a Dalek will be turned to stone.''
| |
| How is that any "less absurd"? A Dalek with a stone casing, though really unusual, makes much more sense than a Dalek turned into stone, unless you refer to the creature inside instead of the machine. Where does that rumour come from anyway and why is it not in the "rumours" section? [[Special:Contributions/83.181.66.133|83.181.66.133]] 10:04, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

| ==Another Tardis?==
| |
| I think that there is another contraption similar to the one we have seen in the episode of "The Lodger" in Amy's house. As can be seen in both "The Pandorica Opens" and "The Eleventh Hour", Amy's house is a two stores home, yet, in the first episode of this series, around the 13 minutes mark ("there's something I'm missing" - he keeps repeating ''that'' alot lately, hasn't he?), and especially around the 18 minutes mark (in which there's a clear lower angle shot) there's a staircase from the second floor to an unknown, rather dark, place.

| | |
| *(in reply to the above comment) You are really on to something here, he says to Amy 'doesn't it bother you that your life does not make sense?' (The Pandorica Opens) and then keeps reiterating about why she has so many rooms in her house, remember, when she was little she was on her own, when she is older, again, she is on her own. Possibly, and this is a rumour (although it is founded on evidence found throughout the series, and built on the above comment) she has always been on 'her own', she may have never had parents or family but she just beleived she did, because she cannot remember her past e.g. like the Doctor with the 'family of blood' and the Master in 'Utopia' via the 'fobwatch'. Thus, this 'house' which seems so important, and has been 'broken into' could well hold a 'tardis' within, such as is seen in the Lodger. It may well be just a bungalo, like every other in 'Ledworth' and the 'top floor' is just a 'Tardis' with undoubtedly functional 'chameleon circuit'. However, all this is theory (I beleive it to be true) but could well explain why Joanne Page is reported to be in the 'Big Bang', could she be a 'regenerated' Amy Pond? If so, this begs the question, who is she? Is she going to be a new charachter (possibly the Ha'Rik?!), or an already known timelady, such as well Romanna, the Rani, or even the unknown timelady in the 'End of Time'. It would also explan why River Song acted so coy to Amy Pond and also why she said she learnt how to fly the TARDIS from the 'best' and also added (in reply to the Doctor) 'shame you were not around that day'. Again this is just theory, but seeing as this is a 'DISCUSSION' page i thought i would throw it out there, please do not attack me, but if anyone wants to comment or reply on this, please do =====- 'Sontar HA'=====

| == Unknown Entity ==
| |
| | |
| *As we all know, the TARDIS goes boom at the end of 'The Pandorica Opens'/start of 'The Big Bang' when controlled by an entity so far unknown while River Song is desperately attempting to prevent this incident. All we know about this entity is that it appears so far as red lighting and a metallic voice claiming that silence will fall coming from a time-field shaped crack displayed on the TARDIS' screen. The entity seems to enter and gain control of the TARDIS when nobody is watching in 'The Pandorica Opens' when the crack appears, flashes and starts to open on the screen, however, there is evidence to suggest the TARDIS has been out of the Doctor's control for a much longer time, this whole se[[File:BBC_-_BBC_One_Programmes_-_Doctor_Who,_Series_5,_The_Eleventh_Hour_-_Google_Chrome.jpg|thumb|The doctor doesn't notice the Crack on the oscilloscope at 1:00.33 in S5E1 (The Eleventh Hour)]]ries in fact. If the entity has been inside the TARDIS since the doctor took Amy for her first trip, the Entity either entered the TARDIS shortly after the machine restabilised, is an evil streak in TARDIS' personality (like Mr. Smith from SJA) or has been dorment inside the TARDIS for a long time.

| == Silurians? ==
| |
| So, the Silurians feature in this episode, and we've seen many of the Doctor's friends unite to send him a message... Except Eldane, who seems wise and on the Doctors side. It's possible that the Silurians returned to the surface of Earth as instructed and found the scorched ruined planet left behind by humanity (See: The Beast Below) and decided to join this evil alliance, so... If Eldane is still around, the Doctor may yet have friends he can count on. Thoughts? [[User:WeepingDevil|WeepingDevil]] 14:53, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

| | |
| | |
| | |
| It does seem rather strange that the Silurians should join in the 'Grand Alliance' along with other notable enemies such as the Daleks, Cybermen and Sontarans. As we are well aware, the Silurians intentions are not as wicked as those of say the Daleks or the Cybermen, they are generally mis-understood if anything. I can see what you are suggesting, and although it WOULD make sense I just do not think it will be relevant to the plot-line. In fact, the whole 'alliance' is the only problem i have with the Pandorica Opens, for one, we do not (yet) know what Cybermen these are, after all, they DO look like Cybusmen, yet they seem a greater threat and the fact they have 'starships' makes little sense, especially if they ARE Cybusmen, because, how would they have the technology to build starships and what need would they have for them , never mind how they got from the parallel to our dimension. Then there are the Silurians, what need would they have to disable the Doctor, unless, they are double-bluffing? Then there are the Judoon, who if I am not mistaken are supposed to be the heavies employed by the Shadow Proclamation, who I do not thiink would ever take side with the Daleks, surely?! Therefore, i think there are real plot holes at present in this finale, especially where the 'enemies' are concerned, and it all seems a little fan-boy to me. - Sontar HA

| I don't know about you, but if I learned that this ancient, powerful man who rides throughout all of time and space at will was at the centre of an explosion that would destroy all of reality, I'd team up with anyone in the universe I had to in order to prevent that. An alliance based on a single goal is far different from a permanent military alliance. The united just for this one moment, and afterwards will go their separate ways.

| == Question about the episode ==
| |
| Do we have any idea why the TARDIS (or the entity controlling it) has decided to take River Song to Amy's time? It was almost like helping the Doctor, taking River to a place that revealed to her the true nature of what was going on with the Alliance. If the entity simply wants to destroy the universe by blowing up the TARDIS, why give The Doctor that slight warning of what is happening? Any theories as to why it needs or wants to go there? [[User:WeepingDevil|WeepingDevil]] 14:53, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| My theory is that as i said before 'Amy's house' is in fact a hidden TARDIS. Now, I cannot be sure as to why this (beleived to be) sinister TimeLord wants to take River to the TARDIS or at least to Amy's room to show her its master plan, unless, there is a more present danger other than that of the 'alliance'. Could there be an enemy who is (like a puppet-master) bended everyone around to its will, making plans within plans to get everyone to do as it wants? I am aware how far fetched this sounds but I really think someone such as the Master, Rassilon, the Monk or Omega are behind this. Remember, 'the Monk' is responsible for creating Stonehenge (sorry forgot the reference-look up the Monk anyway). Could Moffat really be making a finale here based on plot details from near 20-30 years ago?! I would certainly not put it past him!![[Special:Contributions/78.148.145.194|78.148.145.194]] 17:54, June 20, 2010 (UTC)Sontar HA[[Special:Contributions/78.148.145.194|78.148.145.194]] 17:54, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

| The article cites citation #9 (lifetheuniverseandcombom blog) as the source for Karen Westwood as Amy Pond's mother. However, that blog itself cites imdb and tardis.wikia's own article as its sources. IMDB's page does include Karen Westwood, so citing IMDB would make sense. However, citing an article that cites your own article as its source for the same information...well I think it goes without saying that that's silly and fine for Dr. Who but not for a wiki.
