So characters have been warning the Doctor that “silence will fall” since the eleventh hour. Now that we know that the Silence edit themselves out of memory it is possible that the silence have been around since the beginning of Moffat’s writing. I am in the process of re-watching the previous episodes to see if Moffat left us clues and came across the final scene of the eleventh hour. During that scene Amy’s face grows grim several times in the scene and she turns away only to look normal again. In addition she fiddles with the Tardis controls several times in the scene. I originally thought it odd, but ignored it since nothing came of it in that series. However, watching it now she appears to search for a particular control and flips it and then turns around quickly to mask the fact that she just did something to the Tardis as if the silence told her to do something. Perhaps a Silent has been in the Tardis all this time. This would also explain why we hear the voice in the Tardis in The Pandorica Opens. | |||
Now on a side note, I also rewatched The Edge of Destruction recently and can see a lot of illusions to something getting into the Tardis. Barbara, Ian, Susan and the Doctor all start acting differently and also seem to be fighting these new traits (which feels like subliminal messages). Something affects the Tardis and causes it to malfunction (much like Pandorica Opens). And to top it all off Susan even mentions Silence. I am not saying that this is connected, just that I found it really funny. However, if Moffat links all the way back to the third story of Doctor Who, then I think Moffat is an even more amazing writer than I ever thought. | |||
Anyways, I would like others to post here other instances where characters might see Silence so that we can discuss their legitimacy. [[User:MasterIII|MasterIII]] 21:47, May 3, 2011 (UTC) | |||
It is incredibly unlikely that the writers of the 3rd episode of the show were setting up a plot arc that wouldn't be resolved for almost half a century. In ''Edge of Destruction'', everything that happened had to do with the TARDIS being alive and telepathic, and trying to warn them that the fast-return-switch was broken.(Although it would have been simpler to ring the cloister bells or something.)[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] 22:29, May 3, 2011 (UTC) | It is incredibly unlikely that the writers of the 3rd episode of the show were setting up a plot arc that wouldn't be resolved for almost half a century.

So characters have been warning the Doctor that “silence will fall” since the eleventh hour. Now that we know that the Silence edit themselves out of memory it is possible that the silence have been around since the beginning of Moffat’s writing. I am in the process of re-watching the previous episodes to see if Moffat left us clues and came across the final scene of the eleventh hour. During that scene Amy’s face grows grim several times in the scene and she turns away only to look normal again. In addition she fiddles with the Tardis controls several times in the scene. I originally thought it odd, but ignored it since nothing came of it in that series. However, watching it now she appears to search for a particular control and flips it and then turns around quickly to mask the fact that she just did something to the Tardis as if the silence told her to do something. Perhaps a Silent has been in the Tardis all this time. This would also explain why we hear the voice in the Tardis in The Pandorica Opens.
Now on a side note, I also rewatched The Edge of Destruction recently and can see a lot of illusions to something getting into the Tardis. Barbara, Ian, Susan and the Doctor all start acting differently and also seem to be fighting these new traits (which feels like subliminal messages). Something affects the Tardis and causes it to malfunction (much like Pandorica Opens). And to top it all off Susan even mentions Silence.
