* I'm not sure its clear- how "far along" is Amy and when was she taken? As the conversation at the end of the episode (the one Rory listens into with the red dot thing) implies that Amy was pregnant whilst aboard the TARDIS. This makes sense, as the Doctor implies that Melody was conceived on the Ponds' wedding night, on the TARDIS. However, in TIA, she cannot have been further than the 1st trimester; the Doctor comments on the fact that she'd "gained a couple of pounds". Any further, and surely Rory would have noticed as they were sleeping together. So assuming they spent max 1 month in the TARDIS post-conception, then 2 months later, TIA events begin. The relevance of this would be that there has to be a certain amount of time between when Amy is taken and the end of The Rebel Flesh, maybe 6 months if we assume she was 3 months along when taken. So I think the relevant points here are: 1) What's the approximate timeline between TBB and TIA? 2) At what point in Day of the Moon is Amy taken? 3) Is there any concept of how long there is between the point of Amy being taken and her awakening in Demon's Run? | * I'm not sure its clear- how "far along" is Amy and when was she taken?

::As far as I can see we aren't given exact details for the timeline between TBB and TIA but us not being given exact figures is hardly a plot hole. Amy wasn't taken to Demon's run in Day of the Moon, she was taken before series 6 but at sometime where she was pregnant enough that the Doctor would notice the ganger Amy being larger. And finally there aren't exact lengths of time stated for between Amy being taken as far as I can see but again this is hardly a plot hole | |||
*Why did the silence kidnap Amy and keep her in the Silence's Tardis when they already had her at Demon's run | |||
