Talk:Cold Blood (TV story)

I think Rory will be the one to murder Alaya, and the Doctor will take him home. That could be why he is not in Vincent and the Doctor. MidnightCat 10:40, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

I think it will be Ambrose, she seems like the sort of character with hatred and revenge, like Lucy Saxon. Meta-Levia, 18:56, May 23, 2010 (GMT)

In the Preview, the Doctor says "there are six moments in time that cannot change". What are these six events? The events of Genesis of the Daleks is one, and the Eruption at Pompeii is another. Anyone know what the other four are?

Possibly the events of Bowie Base One? However they were (somewhat) changed.

Are you sure he doesn't say FIXED points in time? DalekJast092 23:21, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, he did say 'fixed', I think. Hey, if Ambrose is the one to kill Alaya, then I wonder why he takes Rory home? Because I think if he becomes a victim of the cracks it will probably be in the final, on Amy's wedding day. That would be more dramatic. MidnightCat 15:31, May 24, 2010 (UTC)

I don't think that he will go back to "Amy's Time" even to drop off Rory until one of the last 2 episodes considering the crack starts on her wedding day and the two of them got picked up the night before. I'm thinking the original reason for taking Rory and not just staying in that time and fixing the cracks is so that Amy and Rory can get everything sorted out between them. Once the two of them are happy again then comes the time to deal with the cracks and the pandorica and all that. If he is not in Vincent and the Doctor then I think there must be another reason other than he was brought home. V00D00M0NKY 23:01, May 24, 2010 (UTC)

What's this about the Doctor choosing not to save Rory? Why would he do such a thing? I know he's a bit jelous of Rory's relasionship with Amy, but he wants them to be happy, doesn't he? I just can't see the Doctor being so cruel. If he does choose not to save him, then there must be a special reason. Maybe I was right about him killing Alaya, but still... so confused... P.S: I've edited this talk page three times already. I'm really interested in this episode for some reason. MidnightCat 16:24, May 25, 2010 (UTC)

He doesn't save him at that point because he CANT save him. he knows theres nothing he can do and it'd be dangerous to touch rory's body.

how do know that he won't be in vincent and the doctor? has it been confirmed? 86.21.9.232

Review

We Have a Couple of rumors in this article saying they have been confirmed by a review. I have not seen such a review so if i have missed something can you please post a source for this or the rumors will be removed. Thank you Liamhenney 20:11, May 25, 2010 (UTC)

It's from Beehive City. See http://doctorwhotv.co.uk/cold-blood-spoilers-6148.htm and http://www.beehivecity.com/television/preview-doctor-who-cold-blood17400909/ 86.26.137.154 07:16, May 27, 2010 (UTC)

More spoilers

In addition to the two listed just above:

There are more detailed spoilers on the Gallifrey Base and DWO forums, but I won't link deep into the middle of threads there.

I can only think of one Alex Ferguson phrase that's suitable for pre-watershed TV: "Just when they thought they were safe again, ___ killed them a little again." Put that together with #5 ("Something that last happened millions upon millions of years ago happens again. Though it’s not as memorable as last time."), and I can't help but think that Adric is going to crash a spaceship again and kill off the Silurians. :)

But more seriously, I think #5 is referring to Rory's apparent death being somehow similar to Adric's death millions of years earlier. Although, as we know from other spoilers, Arthur Darvill is in episode 13 playing what appears to be good old Rory in a Roman auxiliary soldier uniform. Which may be why it's not as memorable (or that may be a punning clue to the fact, mentioned in other spoilers, that he falls into the crack, which is "not memorable" because the cracks erase things from history, and therefore from memory).

Also, according to the various spoilers, it sounds like there's actually a lot of HHGTTH references, even for Chibnall and even for season fnarg. Does that imply anything about the "Pandorica is the new Shada" theory?

PS, if #4 is carrot juice instead of celery, I will not be smiling, unless the Silurians have captured someone who looks and sounds like Mel and thrown her in the food processor with the carrots. --Falcotron 08:03, May 27, 2010 (UTC)

More Spoiler?

Just wanted to note, after Rorys death his ring that he put back in its case is still clearly shown in the TARDIS, not vanishing at all. It could just be the TARDIS protecting it, but the ring is still there and could mean that Rory is not gone. Only speculation since the TARDIS couldn't protect Amy from losing her memories.
