River Song is a Time Traveler from the 51st century... ring any bells, people? Time Agents, and Moffat wrore for Jack, a 51st century Time Traveler, before. There is still lots of mystery about that woman, though.

Yeah, as I suggested on another thread, the 51st century answers everything. We know that time travel in the 51st century was restricted to Time Agents and a handful of others, and who would that handful be if not licensed archaeologists, people who both have a good reason to go back to the past, and extensive training and practice examining things without disrupting them? Also, the fact that they have Time Agents implies that there was some unauthorized time travel going on, and again, who's more likely than renegade archaeologists, people who have the motivation to do whatever it takes to go to the past and the ability to get away with whatever they do there? --[[Special:Contributions/99.50.120.236|99.50.120.236]] 05:20, April 25, 2010 (UTC) | |||

Great funny clip at http://doctorwhotv.co.uk/time-of-angels-clip-4453.htm but the mystery just deepens. How will they explain River knowing how to drive / land the Tardis etc. Is she a Time Lord after all (which would be a little disappointing after all the speculation there has been so far) 86.26.137.154 09:00, April 19, 2010 (UTC)
Cuz she's an archeologist as she said in the library episodes, she might have a vast knowledge of machines like the TARDIS which now belongs to an extinct race. So she knows tons of stuff about old things, and this kinda trails off to the season finale explaining her presence there. Cuz the pandorica might/will/nearly open and an ancient evil entity appears in it, so maybe River has some knowledge about them and maybe some use to the Doctor. OR the doctor and Amy run into her while she is in the ruins of the Pandorica and stuff.Vboy1810 09:06, April 19, 2010 (UTC)
River Song's diary classed the events of The Time of Angels and Flesh and Stone (being with the Doctor at the crash of the spaceship, ect.) as being after she first ever met him. Things happened involving her and the Doctor before thso upcomming two-parter, so yes, it get weirder. Delton Menace 11:44, April 19, 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, agreed with Delton Menace. In the Doctor's (and our) future, but River's past, the Doctor presumably teaches/will teach/taught her how to fly the TARDIS.
As for how she knows how to turn off the brakes when he only learns to do that in this episode from her--well, it could be a temporal information paradox, but I'm guessing either he gives her an instruction manual that he never bothered to read, or she finds some notes left behind by Nyssa on "some stuff I figured out so the next clever and technologically advanced companion (not a 20th-century Earth stewardess, put this down Tegan, I aready explained that was The Master tricking you) doesn't have to work it all out for herself." --166.135.137.95 12:41, April 19, 2010 (UTC)
A thought: What if the cracks in time are somehow giving her pieces of knowledge and/or memory of the Doctor down the line. It's possible that her knowledge and feelings of closeness with the Doctor are the result of some cosmic accident/incident. cb
I heard a rumour that this is not the first time they meet and when she lands in the Tardis she knows him but only recently. I hope that makes sense but with Time being all funny it kind of makes sense and it is Steven Moffat so he's not going to be easy in making them meet. Maybe they meet in the Finale but who knows we will have to just wait 2 days :) -- Michael Downey 13:38, April 22, 2010 (UTC)
And my statement actually makes more sense now that I've watched the clip from the post above. There's no way she's a time lord and how else would she know all that stuff and be able to speak to him like she knows him when she doesn't. This definetly isn't the first time they met, you can just tell but still like I said 2 days to find out. -- Michael Downey 13:43, April 22, 2010 (UTC).
