Where's the Second TARDIS?

Guys. Have you forgotten that Canton is the one who faked Amy's and Rory's deaths? (And for him, that had already happened when he pronounced the Doctor dead.) So...I take Canton's pronouncements with a rather large grain of salt.
 
The one thing I'm curious about is, are we going to end up with a 900 year old Doctor after all this, or an 1100 year old Doctor? If so, it would almost certainly be the first time such a large age gap is openly included in a televised story. We've had periods before where the Doctor could have had years of adventures in between TV ones, but it was never openly mentioned.

I was actually disappointed when we found out that between "Waters of Mars" and "End of Time" may have only been a few years, I was hoping the tenth Doctor travelled for hundreds of years before meeting his fate.
 
I think it would be peculiar for us to miss the big 1000, so maybe Moffatt has a timey-wimey trick up his sleeve.
 
Canton did prove to be a great deceiver. He had to deceive The Silence AND The US Government at a time when the US would have been able to spot such deceivers. (Other than ourselves. ;p) Anyway, I don't think he would have known. And he was important because The Doctor used him as a reference to travel back in time. That's why they ended up in the 60s in the first place. Amy and the Gang told him that their only "lead" was a man named Canton.

In either case, the only mystery to me, is River's reaction. And I totally buy the TARDIS being in the Lake. Otherwise, where would the Astronaut have run off to? An other thing is the fact that The Silence is revealed to be an Organization, not a Race, and they're after The Doctor. And he dies at "Lake Silencio" I have a feeling that The Silence will ultimately be the key to everything.

I have the feeling this is it. Just like old Amy in The Girl Who Waited, The 1103 Doctor really dies. And thanks to 200 years of planning and plotting every possible outcome, he somehow sets off a chain of events that causes time to be re-written such that in the re-written timeline, he never dies.

And that's the thing. We've already heard them say "time can be rewritten" ... We've seen the Doctor change time by effectively killing old Amy. We'll see the timeline with 1103 change as well.
 
Presumabely he left it behind or destroyed it when he changed into Yana, or maybe it's been lost since before the Time War (or even "Survival"-he's been attempting to steal or use the Doctor's ever since the TV movie. It's possible when he became Yana he stole a TARDIS from Gallifrey as well.
 
Or just used some other means to strand himself at the end of time. Which in and of itself seems a very non-Master thing to do. I mean, he was already running for his life, so he just put it in risk a second time by not only stranding himself but making sure he forgot everything?
 
After watching the latest episode, I am really interested on learning how they're going to pull this one out of their bums.
 
Agreed.

Everyone thought it would be too obvious and in the last confidential, Steven Moffat pretty much said... "There we are. Everything you thought was going to be the case probably is. It was River in the Space Suit... River is off to kill the Doctor."

Which means I have no idea how he's going to pull this off.

The Doctor could really be dead. Next season could be his adventures from the time he dropped of Amy and Rory till he meets Craig.

And the BBC could be planning a reboot after Moff and Smith leave.

Just a thought.

A reboot prior to the 50th Anniversary? I seriously doubt that, they have already indicated big plans are afoot for the 50th Anniversary.
 
Could it happen? Yes.

Will it happen? Unlikely.

Thousands of British School children would revolt in bloody civil war!

A reboot will obviously happen after the 50th Anniversary. It's confirmed that Smith will be the Doctor for the 50th.
