Howling:Gallifrey's destruction: Difference between revisions

No. The Gallifrey scenes in ''End of Time'' were quite clearly stated to take place the day before the Doctor destroyed Gallifrey. It's how time travel works. Without the time lock, it's just like Earth. The Doctor and Rose saw it blow up in ''The End of the World'', but they still go there all the time, due to time travel. If you want to look at it from a linear point of view from the Time Lord's perspective, here's what happened. First, Rassilon and Omega invented time travel, and the Time Lords were around for billions of years. Then the events of the classic series and the TV movie occured. Then, some time after the movie, the Time War began, and was put into a time lock at some point. During the time locked war, the Time Lords somehow created or found a crazy oracle, who eventually predicted that the war would end when the Eigth (or maybe Ninth) Doctor destroyed Gallifrey and the Daleks. Rassilon didn't want to die, because he's a hypocrite, so he decided to use the Master to break out of the time lock. Unfortuanetly for him, the Tenth Doctor and the Master stopped him, and Gallifrey was returned to the time war within the time lock. The next day, the Eigth (or Ninth) Doctor ended the war by destroying Gallifrey, which led into the new series. The question of non-Daleks and Time Lords time travellers not knowing about the Time War in the classic series was discussed to death a few months ago, and I don't think that anyone agreed on anything. Anyway, there were definetly other classic episodes that took place in the future that mentioned Time Lord involvement (''The Curse of Peladon'' for example), and we don't even know when the Gallifrey episodes were supposed to take place.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] ^{[[User talk:Icecreamdif|talk to me]]} 00:21, November 11, 2011 (UTC)
