The Moment and the Key

Right, so, we have two accounts of methods the Doctor used to end the last Great Time War. But isn't it, I don't know, a bit of a jump to speculate that they're one in the same? For one, the concept of the Super De-mat Gun comes from the comic, which is not necessarily on the same level of canon as the television show. For another, why would the Gun be called a "moment" by anyone? It seems more logical to me that either these are conflicting views on how the Time War; or, if they're both canon, that they were used in conjunction somehow. My own pet theory is that the Doctor once again assembled the Key to Time - something in the Doctor's possession that someone might very well refer to as a Moment - and used that, well, moment when all of time stopped to use the De-mat Gun and lock Gallifrey, and the hosts surrounding it, out of time and space. But there's not sufficient evidence in-universe for me to try promoting that theory. Still, I have to wonder if it's really best if the De-mat gun should even be mentioned on the article for The Moment.

I will make no changes, merely ask for thoughts. Should this page be left alone, or changed? Lostdrewid 00:18, January 9, 2010 (UTC)

You're asking me? I only let it be on there 'cause I don't know what's considered canon here. If it's only what's said in the official series, then fine, I'll take it off.--Reikson 00:52, January 9, 2010 (UTC)
