I don't have the expertise to speak to this myself (at least, not without a bit more research), but I'd love to hear what others think. [[User:AthertonX|AthertonX]] [[User talk:AthertonX|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 21:43, September 30, 2012 (UTC)

I'd have to agree, Ath.  Her first post-Library adventure was the Byzantium, and this is definitely set after that in her timeline, after her pardon and professorship.  So, in theory, she is at the point in her timeline where the Doctor's memories of her should be regressing.  Yet, this is the first time we see them together as a married couple, and they end by setting out together for some unspecified period of time.  Very possibly they've had off-camera adventures together before this, when he knew less and she knew more, and I'd be willing to be that some of her undated appearances (end of Demons Run) probably are from later in her timeline...  Still, at the Byzantium, their married life seemed to be in the past, and their first/last kiss was while she was still in jail, so what's up with having their first on-camera married journeys being 'after' her last kiss?  Tough holiday.
