Professor River Song Was an Archeologist in Doctor Who, Who First Appeared When David Tennant, the 10Th Doctor Still Traveled with Donna Noble (2008) Doctor Who “Silence in the Library” “Forest of the Dead” Professor River Song was an archeologist in Doctor Who, who first appeared when David Tennant, the 10th Doctor still traveled with Donna Noble (2008). The true identity of Professor River Song remained a secret until the 11th Doctor's next travel companion Amy Pond found out that in the future, River Song would become the Doctor's wife. A time traveler as well, the ending story of River Song was revealed earlier in 10th Doctor's “Silence in the Libray” and “Forest of the Dead”, the first time the Doctor met her. Quotes from Professor River Song: River: Hello Sweetie. The Doctor: Get out! ==================================== River: They've gone into warp drive. We're losing them. Stay close. The Doctor: I'm trying! River: Use the stabilizers. The Doctor: It (The Tardis) doesn't have stabilizers! River: The blue switches. The Doctor: The blue switches don't do anything! They're just blue. River: Yes, they're blue. They're the blue stabilizers! ==================================== River: Okay, I've mapped the probability vectors, done a full background temporal isometry, charted the ship to its destination and...parked us right alongside. The Doctor: "Parked us"? We haven't landed. River: Of course we've landed. I just landed her. The Doctor: But...it didn't make the noise. River: What noise? The Doctor: You know the [attempts to imitate the noise the TARDIS usually makes when it lands] River: It's not supposed to make that noise. You leave the brakes on. The Doctor: Yeah, well, it's a brilliant noise. I love that noise. ==================================== Amy: You're so his wife. River: Oh, Amy, Amy, Amy. This is the Doctor we're talking about. Do you really think it could be anything that simple? Amy: Yep. River: You're good. I'm not saying you're right. But you are, very ...good. 1 Doctor Who “Silence in the Library” “Forest of the Dead” ==================================== Father Octavian [about the Doctor]: Dr. Song, I've lost good clerics today. You trust this man? River: I absolutely trust him. Father Octavian: He's not some kind of madman, then? River: [pause] I absolutely trust him. ==================================== ==================================== The Doctor: River Song, I could bloody kiss you! River: Oh well. Maybe when you're older. ==================================== River: [The Doctor walks in River's tent] Hello, Sweetie. Amy Pond: River. Hi. The Doctor: You graffitied the oldest cliff face in the universe. River: You wouldn't answer your phone! ==================================== The Doctor: Are you married, River? River: Are you asking? The Doctor: Yes. River: Yes. The Doctor: No, hang on. ==================================== 2 Doctor Who “Silence in the Library” “Forest of the Dead” DOCTOR: Let's start at the beginning. What happened here? On the actual day, a hundred years ago, what physically happened? RIVER: There was a message from the Library. Just one. The lights are going out. Then the computer sealed the planet, and there was nothing for a hundred years. ======================================== DOCTOR: Four thousand and twenty two saved. No survivors. RIVER: Four thousand and twenty two. That's the exact number of people who were in the library when the planet was sealed. DONNA: But how can four thousand and twenty two people have been safe if there were no survivors? RIVER: That's what we're here to find out. ======================================== DOCTOR: Your screwdriver looks exactly like mine. RIVER: Yeah. You gave it to me. DOCTOR: I don't give my screwdriver to anyone. RIVER: I'm not anyone. DOCTOR: Who are you? ======================================== DOCTOR: So, some time in the future, I just give you my screwdriver. RIVER: Yeah. DOCTOR: Why would I do that? RIVER: I didn't pluck it from your cold dead hands, if that's what you're worried about. DOCTOR: And I know that because? RIVER: Listen to me. You've lost your friend. You're angry. I understand. But you need to be less emotional, Doctor, right now. DOCTOR: Less emotional? I'm not emotional. RIVER: There are five people in this room still alive. Focus on that. Dear God, you're hard work young. DOCTOR: Young? Who are you? ======================================== DOCTOR: We beam all the people out of the data core. The computer will reset and stop the countdown. Difficult. Charlotte doesn't have enough memory space left to make the transfer. Easy! I'll hook myself up to the computer. She can borrow my memory space. RIVER: Difficult. It'll kill you stone dead. DOCTOR: Yeah, it's easy to criticize. RIVER: It'll burn out both your hearts and don't think you'll regenerate. DOCTOR: I'll try my hardest not to die. Honestly, it's my main thing. RIVER: Doctor! DOCTOR: I'm right, this works. Shut up. Now listen. You and Luxy boy, back up to the main library. Prime any data cells you can find for maximum download, and before you say anything else, Professor, can I just mention in passing as you're here, shut up. RIVER: Oh! I hate you sometimes. DOCTOR: I know! RIVER: Mister Lux, with me. Anita, if he dies, I'll kill him! ======================================== DOCTOR: They'd better take it, because right now, I'm finding it very hard to make any kind of offer at all. You know what? I really liked Anita. She was brave, even when she was crying. And she never gave in. And you ate her. DOCTOR: But I'm going to let that pass, just as long as you let them pass. 3 Doctor Who “Silence in the Library” “Forest of the Dead” ANITA: How long have you known? DOCTOR: I counted the shadows. You only have one now. She's nearly gone. Be kind. ANITA: These are our forests. We are not kind. DOCTOR: I'm giving you back your forests, but you are giving me them. You are letting them go. ANITA: These are our forests. They are our meat. DOCTOR: Don't play games with me. You just killed someone I liked. That is not a safe place to stand. I'm the Doctor, and you're in the biggest library in the universe. Look me up. ======================================== DOCTOR: Any luck? DONNA: There wasn't even anyone called Lee in the library that day. I suppose he could have had a different name out here, but, let's be honest, he wasn't real, was he? DOCTOR: Maybe not. DONNA: I made up the perfect man. Gorgeous, adores me, and hardly able to speak a word. What's that say about me? DOCTOR: Everything. Sorry, did I say everything? I meant to say nothing. I was aiming for nothing. I accidentally said everything. DONNA: What about you? DONNA: Are you all right? DOCTOR: I'm always all right. DONNA: Is all right special Time Lord code for really not all right at all? DOCTOR: Why? DONNA: Because I'm all right, too. ======================================== RIVER: When you run with the Doctor, it feels like it will never end. But however hard you try, you can't run forever. Everybody knows that everybody dies, and nobody knows it like the Doctor. But I do think that all the skies of all the worlds might just turn dark, if he ever, for one moment, accepts it. 4.

    DOCTOR WHO SERIES 10 EPISODE 1 "A Star In Her Eye" By Steven Moffat SHOOTING SCRIPT 16/06/2016 (SHOOTING BLOCK 1) DW10: EP 1 "A Star In Her Eye" by Steven Moffat - SHOOTING SCRIPT - 16/06/16 1 INT. THE DOCTOR’S OFFICE - DAY 1 - 16.00 1 The quietest opening we’ve ever had. We’re in a reasonably untidy office. Dust and books. Obviously academic. A university lecturer’s office. We hold this stationary shot - there’s a pleasing symmetry. There’s a door on the left of the screen, and a slightly open one on the right - like the two doors on a weather clock. Through the slightly open door we can see another, smaller room. In between the doors, there’s a desk, facing across the screen. Two empty chairs. The one in front of the closed door, is a simple, wooden chair. Facing it across the desk is an elegant swivel chair. Distantly, a bell chiming. We hear the chatter of distant voices - young people, chatting and laughing. Under that, the drone of traffic. Ordinary and still, for as long as we dare. Then: Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! It’s like the squeaking wheel on a supermarket trolley - and it’s getting closer. Now the closed door opens, revealing: Nardole. Much as we last saw him in The Husbands Of River Song. He steps into the room (always a squeak on his left leg) revealing: In the doorway, Bill. Young, female, cheeky as hell. Nardole stands clear of the door, gestures towards the wooden chair.

They did I nice job with this temporally paradoxical mash-up. I think I'm addicted. The story is perfectly interesting, to begin with, but feels very disappointing by the end. This particular boxset takes place some time after her last on-screen adventure She's River, it's timey-wimey, who knows!

PART ONE THE DOCTOR AND HIS COMPANIONS 1 1 A Young-Old Face Out with the New and in with the Old in Doctor Who Richard Hewett Introduction ‘I approve of your new face, Doctor - so much more like mine.’ This line, spoken by the now ancient, enervated and seemingly dying Davros in ‘The Magician’s Apprentice’, is just one of many age-related barbs directed at the Twelfth Doctor during Peter Capaldi’s reign, serving as a constant reminder that the Time Lord is no longer (if, indeed, his on-screen self ever was)1 a young man. Throughout his tenure, friends and foes alike highlighted the latest incarnation’s wrinkled, somewhat cadaverous visage, grey hair, and scrawny body, the Doctor being variously described as a ‘desiccated man crone’ (‘Robot of Sherwood’), a ‘grey-haired stick insect’ (‘Listen’), and a ‘skeleton man’ (‘Last Christmas’).

  • Adventures in Time and Sound: Leitmotif and Repetition in Doctor Who
    Adventures in Time and Sound: Leitmotif and Repetition in Doctor Who by Emilie Hurst A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2015 Emilie Hurst ii Abstract This thesis explores the intersections between repetition, leitmotif and the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze in the context the BBC television series Doctor Who (1963-1989; 2005- ). Deleuze proposes that instead of the return of the same, repetition, by its constant insertion in a new temporal context can produce difference as part of the process of the eternal return. He also rejects the concepts of being in favour of becoming. I argue his framework on repetition allows us to broaden the definition of the leitmotif and embrace the role of repetition. I analyse the leitmotif of three characters: Amy Pond, River Song, and the Doctor. In all three instances, the leitmotifs are an active participant in the process of becoming while, simultaneously, undergoing their own becoming. For River, the leitmotif also works as a territorializing refrain, while for the Doctor, use of leitmotif paradoxically gives the impression of being. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my advisors Alexis Luko and James Deaville for providing me with guidance along the way, as well as Paul Théberge who stepped in the final month to help me re- organize my thoughts. The input of all three helped insure that what follows is a much more cohesive, better organized final product. I would also like to thank graduate supervisors Anna Hoefnagels, and examiners Jesse Stewart and André Loiselle all of whom went out of their way to assure I completed my defense on time.
