Talk:The Big Bang (TV story): Difference between revisions

River's presence in 2010 is one of the oddest anomalies in an episode constructed entirely of highly intentional anomalies and paradoxes ([[Ontological_paradox|Ontological paradoxes]] are Moffat's bread and butter, and I love that). I think her presence in 2010 can be explained loosely by her explanation that everyone would go back to where they were supposed to be if the Doctor suceeded. The last place she was before the explosion and collapse of the universe was staring at a rock wall through the TARDIS doors on June 26, 2010. So, perhaps she just ended up there sans-TARDIS. As for her memories, we don't really know what she remembered. The book was obviously blank, so her memory might have been too. She might have just had a hidden compulsion to carry out like Amy's (The Doctor will have plenty of time to implant instructions in younger Rivers, ala 'If you're ever trapped in 1969 you'll need this'.). It's either that or her persistent memory falls into the category of 'Things we don't know about River'.
