No, not a pattern to it's shape, but a pattern to when it appears.

Reading this post got me thinking about it.

I will spoiler out bits that give away story points.

IIRC we have seen the crack in:

1 - The Eleventh Hour -
2 - The Beast Below -
3 - Victory of the Daleks -
4 - Time of Angels + Flesh and Stone -
5 - Cold Blood -

Now what I have noticed...

1 -

2 -
3 -
4 -
5 -



Or have I overdosed on BBQ's and just need some quiet time until I get better?

Did the crack not also appear on the Tardis keyhole at the end of Vampires of Venice?

Ok there's another one. Anything wibbly wobbley timey wimey in VoV?

Last nights twist with the Doc retrieving a scorched piece of the Tardis from the crack in time seems to imply (to me) that the crack itself is caused by the Tardis being destroyed. Maybe the crack is in fact what happens when a Tardis is obliterated?

Anyone else got some thoughts about this?

I still have a horrible feeling that we've not seen the last of the DreamLord. I hope I'm wrong - it could be way too much of a cop out.

A TARDIS is destroyed and all the events it visited are being rewritten as a result of it not existing- this would be an interesting possibility. But it still leaves the question as to what causes the destruction of the TARDIS in the first place, as I do not really think it involves the Ten-Eleven regeneration- it just doesn't feel like Moffat would base an entire series arc over the final plot thread that was RTD's (although I know Moffat had an input on this I think)

Just a theory of mine, but what if the Tardis is 'splintered' throughout time itself? That might explain the references between The City Of Death's 'crack in time' and ths series that I've been reading on other forums.

If that is the case, how did the Tardis get splintered? Answers on a postcard...

On point 2

Think we are still expecting the new BMW Mini-Daleks to appear in the last 2 episodes...or are we?

Maybe it's worse than that? Maybe if a Tardis is destroyed it not only wipes people from existence but also maybe the whole universe - taking everything right back to the 'Big Bang'. What could cause it? well my money is on Omega. I also see that they have in the season finale, so it's going to be fun finding out what happens

The future Doctor stuff all feels very Harry Potter from the Prisoner of Azkaban when they have to go back in time to fix things.

At this point in time we don't know whether the TARDIS caused the explosion or was itself caught up in the blast from something else exploding.

Or indeed someone,

Conjecture but spoilered for those who worry about things

Ive been thinking there is much more to that than we have seen.

i dont remember her doing that :S i'll have to watch it again to make sure cos i thought the doc came in at that point!

If i'm wrong i'll apologise but just gonna watch it again to find out!

ok i've watched the clip of Amy in the Voting Booth (it starts around 15:30 on the link above) and it doesnt show her recording any message! after seeing the truth, she hits the Forget Button straight away with no time to record anything! You can see that she's confused when she wipes away her tears

one thing odd about it though, if she did record it in the future, why does she still have her nightclothes on? unless future her thought she wouldnt believe herself if she didnt have the same clothes on, or SM didnt want us noticing it wasnt that times Amy but a future version?

My Head Hurts!! well i suppose we'll find out eventually!!

Another theory could be that the force of the 10/11 regeneration, or whatever caused the explosions inside the TARDIS........

In that scene we see things from Amy's point of view. We don't see her record the message as she forgets she has done it, we jump from her viewing the recording to having pressed the forget button.

well i suppose we wont find out til the end lol

I'm not too sure on that one.

During the Time War, I'm guessing that the Dalek's must have destroyed at least a handful of Tardises/Tardi, and we didn't see any cracks in time - Apart from this one, and it implies that this crack is specifically the Doctors' Tardis.

I'm not sure how continuity would allow one Tardis blowing up to make a crack in the universe, but allow thousands to get destroyed without doing anything.

I think that the ring Rory left will be of some importance. Shouldn't it have vanished along with Rory?

A paradox is when there are two ducks on the pond.

I've always wondered whether there are two Tardis's out of phase creating two different time-lines, but not had any evidence until you mentioned Amy is still in her night clothes meaning it could signify a second Amy's (& Doctor's) first trip.

What drew me to the idea was finding loads of teasing clues about Series 5 in TEoT pt 2 when the Doc visits his previous companions.
Rose mentions to her mum that Jimbo's axle broke 5 minutes after he said he'd give them a lift.

What if the Tardis 'axle' broke after the Doc said he'd be back in 5 minutes. It still wasn't stabilised or when he returned for her the night before her wedding. The Tardis split in two with two Docs & Amys ?

One possible extra visual clue, The Doc tells Amy its a Type 40 Tardis for no reason at all and then at the end of TBB we see a very prominently placed speed limit 20 sign as it dematerialises.

Billy Shipton on his Blink death bed mentions he was told going to find himself would cause an explosion destroying 2/3rds of the universe. Is Amy trying to find her other self going to do this ?

i think that when she hits the forget button she forgets the video she has seen which shows the truth about the spaceship, then records the video to herself - so when she hits the forget vutton she forgets recording the video with her crying in it. the reason we dont see her recording the video is so that we dont get to see the video explaining the ship and therefore ruin the ending... (i think thats right)

The ring wouldn't cease to exist just because Rory has ceased to exist. It existed before he ever saw or touched it. It wouldn't have got into the TARDIS without his intervention though. I suspect that it didn't vanish because somehow being in the TARDIS preserved it.
Mind you, we've only actually seen the box since Rory went, not the ring itself!

The Doctor tells Amy she has had 20 minutes of her memory erased.

We saw at most 5 minutes of her in the Voting Booth so there is 15 minutes we did not see in which she recorded the message.

That was the whole point of the RECORD button for people to see the Video, then record a message to themselves to say forgetting the Video was for the best before they hit the FORGET button.
