*In the episode, it is stated that the Sun is gone, and the exploding TARDIS is giving Earth light.  So, if the Sun went supernova, why did the Earth survive?  There is no way a planet that close to a star would survive a supernova.

::The sun being gone is not the same as the sun exploding. Plus, our sun isn't large enough to create a super-nova. It'll become a red-giant, instead. (Which would burn up Earth either way) but like I said, if they only say the sun is "gone", there's no reason to assume is exploded.


*Why are the Slitheen mentioned as enemies? River lists them as one of the groups coming to witness the opening of the Pandorica. Technically, the Slitheen are not a race, they are a family ([[World War Three (TV story)]]), so it's unlikely that their ships are distinguishable from other Raxicoricofallapatorian ships. So how does River know - since the [[Tenth Doctor]] doesn't discuss it with her - that it's the Slitheen, and not just average Raxicoricofallapatorians, who are coming?
