I came across this and felt it was well worth a read. I don't think anything as intense as this will become of it, but it shows some amazing coincidences that would tie everything together. It would mean the entire ongoing set of story arcs in Nu-Who were building up to the events we'll inevitably see in the 50th Anniversary

I thought it was interesting all the same...some strange coincidences
But wasn't the "scatter them across time and space" referring to Rose leaving the Bad Wolf clues and references for her and the doctor to find, which they did throughout the first series?
Indeed it was, but I think the theory suggests that there could be more to the picture.
I'd happily accept that as this theory is the level of depth in a story arc that would amaze me, and could easily be passed off to casual viewers too - perhaps the anniversary will in some way refer back to a story of each of the previous Doctor's? The events of The Parting of the Ways would be the perfect 'Nine' reference.
Think, if they have Ten and Eleven team up... and if the special were 90 minutes... they'd have just under ten minutes to go back through moments in the Doctor's past that echo through to whatever story the 50th presents. It'd create the most massive foreshadowing that television has ever seen (as unlikely as it is )
It's all proving to be very interesting.
Perhaps Jack became a fixed-point in time whilst Clara became a fixed-point in space? Or perhaps Moffat will treat us like boneheads and just tell us it's like Gwen - spacial genetic multiplicity!
I think the main parallel will be the way Jenna talks to the Ice Warrior. She'll see the best in it like Rose in Dalek.
It got me wondering about the pub sign for the Rose and Crown. It has a red rose, as some pub signs of the same name might have a white rose or a Tudor rose which is a mix of the two. On the Tardis the St John Ambulance sign looks like a white rose, maybe that is why The Tardis is not sure of Clara as she was wearing a red rose in her hair.
i don't think she had the time to do or think about that.
being human and all....
if she saw the future in that amount of detail she would find a way to not get stuck and be apart from the 10th doctor whom she loves.
its a good thought, but, i don't see it being the correct way forward for the show.
