Season five finale

Some interesting pieces are being set down in teh first three episodes:
1.Did anyone notice the clock in amys' kitchen .The time kept changing and this wasn't a continuity problem as the camera made a point of focussing on it?not sure what that means .
2.Could the Pandorica be a prison ?
3.Also we never got to see Amys' Aunt does she exist ?and if she doesn't is a thread being laid there .
4.Amy doesn't remember the daleks at canary wharf? where was she during that time and if she was missing is there any reason why the annette crosby family never noticed.
5.Could the silence that will fall because nothing moves because time has been stalled in some way? and has done in the past for example why did Churchill mention twice that he had been waiting a month for the doctor after he called him ?
6.finally is john simms now the wrong manifestation of the Master to play against the current Doctor?
7.finally,finally:why was prisoner zero so surprised when it said words to the effect "you really don't know do you ?" in its last scene :it seemed sure the doctor would "know " is that because the doctor has had pieces of his memory erased in some way and could that have been done to protect the doctor in some way :why did he switch off the monitor in episode 1 when the crack appeared ?

The Battle of Canary Wharf!? The Doctor was on about moving the Earth to the Medusa Cascade. Kinda bigger?

I think the clock kept changing because they were trying to show the viewer time had passed with the Doctor constantly asking for food and spitting it out. it's a tv device to show time has passed

I get the impression Amy's village is outside of the regular universe somehow.

What you said about the clock, the Doctor noticing something odd about the Duck Pond, the lack of Amy's Aunt, the Doctor being way off with his time travel there, Amy not knowing about Dalek events, Rory's badge...

I get the feeling the Doctor took Amy away for reasons he's not telling her.

So Amy wouldn't see it and know that's why he's brought her with him.

It would be good if the actions of Ten in The End of Time or The Waters Of Mars were the reason for this. I know it's a new show and everything, but they do need to have these little reminders every now and then.

He broke the laws of the time in the Waters of Mars and the Time War lock was broken and fixed in the End of Time, so perhaps something something went wrong when the world went back.

Think like that scene in Doomsday, where the Doctor holds the sonic screwdriver to that pane of glass, explaining the walls of the universes. It cracks and then shatters.

Another thing that struck me in teh(that always looks like the is spelt wrong ) is when little Amy is preying, she asks for someone to fix it or a policeman or...... and then she pauses until the sound of the Tardis is heard, she then looks out the window and thanks Santa.
Did she already know the Doctor????

I doubt it, I'm pretty sure that's just a 7 year old going "Who would help with problems?" and the TARDIS appears then just because the TARDIS is a police box and it's a nice bit of timing.

The clock moving and showing different times is a classic plot and editorial trick to show that times past. It's equally as effective as a fade to black/White

Yeah, she asked for a policeman, heard the TARDIS, told Santa to hold on, saw the police box, then went back and thanked Santa. One of her first questions to the Doctor was "are you a policeman?".

Whose playing her? Is it a well known actress? I'm getting Gillian Anderson in my head, mainly because she is a red head and is such a good actress.
