::Alternatively, given the recent revelations in ''[[The Doctor's Wife]]'', the TARDIS may have realised that the Doctor was partially responsible for causing the Monoids to overthrow the guardians, and taken him to the future because that is where he "needed to go" to put things right. | ::Alternatively, given the recent revelations in ''[[The Doctor's Wife]]'', the TARDIS may have realised that the Doctor was partially responsible for causing the Monoids to overthrow the guardians, and taken him to the future because that is where he "needed to go" to put things right. | ||
:::Even though I completely agree with this explaination (although for me, the TARDIS brought him there just because he needed to GO there, not precisely to help the guardians overthrow the Monoids but still to be involved in the events) I'd just like to point out than he DIDN'T landed on the exact same spot (well, not exactly.) Though he did landed around the same spot IN the Ark, the ship was now "700 years of travel" away from its previous location from Part 1 & 2. In part 1 & 2, it was 700 years away fromi Refusis but in Part 3 & 4, it was like just one or two days away from the planet. (By the way, I know this isn't an argument AGAINST the previous point, but I didn't know where to put it. Also, English isn't my first language so I might have made some mistakes.) | |||
::First, The Doctor had no particular intention of returning to the ship, so that is somewhat irrelevant to the question. That said: (a) Is it remarkable? Yes. (b) Is it an amazing coincidence? Possibly (c) Unless it was part of some grander scheme/influence. (d) However, is it a discontinuity? Absolutely not. | ::First, The Doctor had no particular intention of returning to the ship, so that is somewhat irrelevant to the question. That said: (a) Is it remarkable? Yes.
