:: This is also a possible explanation for Rory's apparent inability to die during Season 6, although once again Amy would have likely mentioned this. Also, a glaring omission in all of this is that if the Doctor finally returns after having been absent for a while, Amy and Rory's first priority, one would expect, would be to recruit him to deal with the Miracle Day problem (even if the Doctor refuses citing "fixed point in time" which Miracle Day likely would be). | :: This is also a possible explanation for Rory's apparent inability to die during Season 6, although once again Amy would have likely mentioned this.
