![]() River is a great character, she has great strength even though there was those who tried.

I like it when characters meet different incarnations. When people say 'that character was only that certain doctor only, or anything of that nature, it's as though they are forgetting for a moment that the doctor is one character and not 12 different ones. Having odd characters from the past turn up from time to time and them reminiscing only reinforces that. Not to mention that River actually started in 10's era, or the fact that jack was successfully a big part of both 9 and 10's era and Sarah Jane Smith was reoccuring in 10's era years after being a part of both 3 and 4's eras. Blurring the lines between the incarnations by having someone who knew him previously come along and still recognise that he is still the same man despite the surface changes serves to reinforce and strengthen the central character of the doctor. I'd happily see river back any time. |

Why so, am sure Steven's wife had some input towards River's character, makes sense.
![]() (On another note, River Song's timeline always reminds me of the Morecambe and Wise quote 'I played all the right notes but not necessarily in the right order'. Could Moffat have been inspired by that classic TV sketch?) |

It's like me telling my friends I can no longer be friends with them, because they belong firmly in my Secondary School Years and cannot possibly play a role in my life now. I'm a changed guy now, with new shiny friends!

Never say never if they could come up with a good story why not ?. River was big part of his life. Wasn't just his wife she is Amy and Rory's daughter. She connects him to his past and lost friends through that. Wonder what he would say to her if they met ?.

I loved River but surely her story is done now.
When we met her with 10 we knew there was a story with a future Doctor to be played out and that we were seeing the end. Unless it was some sort of "rescue" from the library type of angle then it just doesn't make any sense for her to have any dealings with 12 |

The Doctor has been working up to something, meeting River again? meeting The Master? Meeting another Doctor? Challenge? Doctor needs a challenge Sorry, just something out of nothing.![]() Last Christmas ended with the Doctor and Clara running off together like a couple of excited school-kids. How about series 9 carries on where this left off? The Doctor and Clara are travelling through time and space having fun and adventures, when at some point, after another successful adventure, they snog ![]() We know that Clara and the Doctor get separated at some point in the opening two-parter, and Clara meets up with Missy who reveals the Doctor is in trouble. There's a good way to throw them apart as they both decide they shouldn't and can't travel together anymore. Then when they get back together at the end of episode 2 they simply agree never to mention "the incident" ever again. Come on - those two are so loved up an accidental snog is totally plausible and would give Capaldi a great chance to show off his comedy skills.
