    Yes, but in 'Time of Angels' and 'Flesh and Stone' it was stated that the reason River was held in the Stormcage was because she killed "A very good man". The episode where all was reveled was titled 'A Good Man Goes To War'. Coinicedence?, I think not.

    Not just "a very good man." She specifically says, "The best I've ever known."

    How can that NOT be the Doctor?

    Well, when her father is also in the mix, it can muddy things up :D

    I was wondering that myself, but what possible reason would River have for killing her own father. It's bound to be surprising when we find out what's what.

    With the disjointed story we've gotten over the years about River Song, I wonder if this was all thought out from the begining, with minor changes along the way, or was it al cobbled together at the last moment?

    Well. Steven Moffat says he has a plan for the next series, but he's not letting on. Apparently I just saw on Twitter that it won't be a full series(may only be a rumour), but that something special will be happening for 2013 for the 50th anniversary

    If she is the kid in the space suit - doesn't that mean she already killed "A Good Man"?

    Probably. But then again, until we know what the whole deal with that is, it's hard to be certain.

    As a pure guess, I think it's either River or Amy

    Perhaps she asked for a change of character name, that would really be something

    That would be cool if it were true, but I am thinking coincidence, since her appearances on SVU were during the 2009-2010 TV season.

    Considering she's been in the know about her character's origins, it's surprising she didn't jump at the chance by asking the SVU writers to change her character's name to Melody Pond. The again if that bit ofinfo had gotten out, then maybe, things would have been written different

    I thought she was only recently told about her origins. I could be wrong though

    I was just thinking that the Weeping Angels and the main characters from the Toy Story movies have alot of characteristics in common, like that whole Quantum Lock thing.:)

    *Tosses CAPTWinters into a temporal loop where it always resets to the day before the second part of the current season of Doctor Who starts.*
