The timeline rest would also contradict River Song, too. If it was all reset, the the Doctor wouldn't have met future River Song to then travel with her at some point in her past and his future (which will be a future series, presumably). He meets her a second time in series 5, but she doesn't know him. Timeline couldn't be reset because Silence in the Libraray/Forest of the Dead needs to have happened and is connected to an episode of series 5. In the first episode of series 5, the 11th Doctor is wearing the 10th Doctors ripped and damaged (from the events of The End of Time) suit. He has the same Sonice Screw Driver to start with, too. Even the same TARDIS at the start. Reference will also be made to Donna at some point after the events of The End of Time, hence River's knowledge of her.

Near the end of The End of Time, the Doctor simply does back in time (well, it is assumed he went back himself) to January 2005 to see Rose from before he met her, and he tells her she is "going to have a great year," refering to her soon-to-be year travel with him, too. So nope, no timeline reset. [[User:Delton Menace|Delton Menace]] 20:11, December 27, 2009 (UTC)

Could it be that The End of Time takes place during the time war? Stick with me here, I do know it is a war in time so I could be wrong, and I admit it. The narrator is telling the story, which the viewer is to surmise is to them, but at the end of the episode is talking to the time lords. i do realize that they are "trapped" and he was telling them a story, however the next episode has an excerpt from the time war, as shown by the clip that was released by the BBC Geffe71 16:51, December 27, 2009 (UTC)

The clip for The End of Time part 2 confirmed it, but at The End of Time part 1, they are seen as having survived it. The most likely situation is that it has been unlocked, and so it is leaking. The Ood say that events that have happened are happening again. That say it all- the war must have been unlocked, and so people can see it happening, and so the Time Lords may be able to survive by escaping it this time.

Ah, now I understand what the elder was talking about. the time war is happening (events that have happened are happening now) and converging with present day (the lines of convergence are being drawn across the earth) which heralds the end of time. Geffe71 17:29, December 27, 2009 (UTC)

Another theory I have seen is that we know RTD is going to do a somewhat reset on what he's done so far so the end of time is the end of time.. as we know it as the time lords are back and back in control, manipulating it to suit their own desires --92.14.205.28 19:11, December 27, 2009 (UTC)

Not going t to work out like that. If time was reset, how do the spin-offs continue? Because they are. If time was reset, there would be no immortal guy called Jack, the Doctor never would have met Sarah Jane again, everything that happened on modern day Earth from the Doctor meeting Rose to the Master new return would be wiped clean. Not happening, as we can see. From a leaked line in series 5, there is reference to the events of Doomsday and The Stolen Earth/Journey's End, too, where the Doctor is ranting about the Daleks because they come back, and he mentions how he sent them into the Void and saved reality from them before.

The timeline rest would also contradict River Song, too. If it was all reset, the the Doctor wouldn't have met future River Song to then travel with her at some point in her past and his future (which will be a future series, presumably). He meets her a second time in series 5, but she doesn't know him. Timeline couldn't be reset because Silence in the Libraray/Forest of the Dead needs to have happened and is connected to an episode of series 5. In the first episode of series 5, the 11th Doctor is wearing the 10th Doctors ripped and damaged (from the events of The End of Time) suit. He has the same Sonice Screw Driver to start with, too. Even the same TARDIS at the start. Reference will also be made to Donna at some point after the events of The End of Time, hence River's knowledge of her.

Near the end of The End of Time, the Doctor simply does back in time (well, it is assumed he went back himself) to January 2005 to see Rose from before he met her, and he tells her she is "going to have a great year," refering to her soon-to-be year travel with him, too. So nope, no timeline reset.
