== Production error? ==
 
Is it not possible that the Flesh copied the Sonic Screwdriver as well, thus making this, well, not a production error? Since the Flesh seems able to copy clothes, it is not unreasonable to state that it could copy a sonic screwdriver. Just an opinion.
 
: Not a discussion point as such, but wouldn't it be terribly gratuitous if humans by the 22nd century would have been able to create a material that can copy ''anything'' with technical perfection, including sonic screwdrivers and... timelords?? Just imagine, if we can do ''that'', why isn't just about everything set in the future different? E.g. the space station in the Satan Pit could have an army of plastic timelords assisting them...

==Plot==
We should probably note that Amy tells the "Ganger" Doctor about his death, which means she really told the actual Doctor. -- Wakukee
 
If you remember the doctor who spoke to felt the "WHY" a lot stronger than the one inside. Which would imply that the one outside, and thus the one Amy spoke to, was the Ganger Doctor rather than the origional. They probably switched shoes after that. [[User:Looq|Looq]] 11:08, May 29, 2011 (UTC)
 
There was no time for them to switch shoes after that, the 'Ganger' was made to sit on a barrel. They must have switched shoes at one of the few times that they were together when no one else was, early on in the episode when the mining crew were attempting to barricade the door.

That occured to me too. I guess another explanation for the Doctor outside feeling the "WHY" more strongerly than the one inside, could be that the Ganger Doctor (inside) had dulled telepathic powers compared to the Original Doctor (outside). Although that would seem to go against the grain of the two of them being the same, unless it has something to do with the Ganger Doctor being "new" a carry on from his difficulties with his previous regenerations.

I found a point. The two Doctors are discussing the issue of the companions trusting them right after the Ganger Doctor was discovered. It could be this early that they swap shoes. [[Special:Contributions/24.15.248.79|24.15.248.79]] 02:02, May 30, 2011 (UTC)
 
It's possible that the Doctor simply had the Tardis make a new sonic screw driver rather than retrive the old one.[[User:Camoxide|Camoxide]] 13:28, May 30, 2011 (UTC)
 
The perfect time for the shoe switch was when they were both working behind the console. After Cleaves walks away their lower halves are out of sight all of the time and both take turns to 'duck down' several times allowing plenty of time to switch. Also in relation to the which doctor was outside question, it was definitely the real Doctor due to the comment between the two before the Ganger's death. The comment regarding 'invites' was met with confusion from the Ganger as this was information the real Doctor received after the Ganger's creation.

The article says Amy screams in pain at the end, but it seems more like terror at her situation than like pained contraction screams and that seems significant to me - she suddenly woke up in her real body and realized she was totally pregnant and started screaming her head off (like any reasonable person!!!)
 
== "This one we are not invited to" ==
 
When the ganger doctor is holding the door shut on Ganger Jennifer.. an short piece of dialoge implys the doctor knows about his death
 
Ganger Doctor: My death arrives I suppose.
 
Doctor: But this one we're not invited to.
 
* Because Amy accidentally tells him earlier in the episode. [[User:Witoki|Witoki]] 08:04, May 29, 2011 (UTC)
* I thought that was the Ganger doctor, becasue he started talking about the eyes asking why
 
== Tom Baker Clip ==
 
Where is the evidence that Tom Baker recorded it recently with Big Finish? [[User:TemporalSpleen|TemporalSpleen]] 08:12, May 29, 2011 (UTC)
 
== Signal? ==
 
The Doctor says he needed to block the Flesh's signal to Amy. Any idea what he meant? I can't figure it out. [[Special:Contributions/107.10.114.149|107.10.114.149]] 22:59, May 29, 2011 (UTC)
*The signal allowing the real Amy to control the Ganger Amy, like the harnesses do. [[User:Witoki|Witoki]] 23:23, May 29, 2011 (UTC)
