Stormcage Containment Facility
Template:Infobox Organization Stormcage Containment Facility was a prison in the 51st and 52nd century. River Song was a prisoner and frequent escapee there. (DW: Flesh and Stone)
In 5145, River had been temporarily taken from Stormcage to spend her birthday with the Doctor in 1545 with famous musician. After being returned to Stormcage, her father had been sent by an earlier Doctor to assist in the battle of Demons Run. Knowing she would already be there as an infant, River declined. However, she did escape shortly afterwards and arrived when Korovin escaped with her infant self to infrom Amy and Rory that she was their daughter, Melody.
In the 52nd century, River received a letter from the Doctor, asking her to meet him in America 2011. She subsequently escapes Stormcage with ease, evidently contemptuous of the facility's ability to contain her-- as indicated by a guard's command that the facility be brought to maximum alert simply because "She's doing it again... She's packing." (DW: The Impossible Astronaut) After they defeated The Silence's occupation of Earth, the Doctor returned River to Stormcage. (DW: Day of the Moon)
In 5145, River once again made an escape from Stormcage to warn the Doctor about the Pandorica opening and the TARDIS exploding after receiving a call from Winston Churchill which the TARDIS redirected to Storm Cage. (DW: The Pandorica Opens)
Some time later, River was later released under the custody of Father Octavian, who needed her assistance in a mission involving Weeping Angels as she could provide the equivalent of an army in the Doctor. When their mission was over, River was presumably returned to Stormcage, though she did hope she had done enough on this mission to earn a pardon. (DW: The Time of Angels / Flesh and Stone)
Behind the scenes
- According to an interview with Alex Kingston, she thinks the Stormcage is some kind of a prison planet and it is particularly unpleasant to stay there.
