* What is the purpose of the octagonal room with the arrows pointing to the center, and wouldn't it be reset each time?  I can vaguely understand the removed part of it being under the dirt (perhaps that helps it avoid the reset) but where it came from i'd assume would reset and erase the arrows.  If it doesn't why not store more specific information there instead of obscure breadcrumbs?

* I'm not even sure why the Veil is such a threat.  I'll assume it's invulnerable.  But since the grave area can be barricaded against it and one time he digs all night it's clear he can get more than 82 minutes of peace, sleep or research in.  The Veil doesn't have infinite strength or it could have forced the door open against the Doctor.  With time to dig it would almost seem reasonable he could lay traps for it even if it were invulnerable.  Or let the door open when done, have it walk in, circle around and go back out again since it's not infinitely fast.

* Does the Doctor die each time he jumps out into the water and see the skulls?  Since there doesn't seem to be an obvious way back up to anything.  If not that would seem like another location he could ditch the Veil for awhile - go swim for an hour and lazily circle back even if it's swimming after you.
