The photos, BTW, are easy to examine closely on the BBC iPlayer, by stopping the playback at the right moments. --[[Special:Contributions/89.242.65.145|89.242.65.145]]<sup>[[User talk:89.242.65.145#top|talk to me]]</sup> 05:51, May 12, 2013 (UTC)

== Clara, River, and the Name ==
River knew the Doctor's name in the library ([[Forest of the Dead (TV story)]]), and Clara learned the name by reading [[The History of the Time War]] inside the wrecked TARDIS ([[Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS (TV story)]]: surely not a throw-away scene).  That Clara was erased, but on Trenzalore she began remembering conversations from that time in ([[The Name of the Doctor (TV story)]]).  That means that, on or after Trenzalore, she might remember the Doctor's real name.  River uses that name on Trenzalore to open the tomb, and she uses it in the Library to convince the Doctor to trust her: perhaps she learned it not from the Doctor but from a post-Trenzalore Clara, and she lied to the Doctor in the Library.
