As a side note, rewatching the first episode the other day, I noticed that after the Doctor left little Amy, the camera goes inside the dark house while she waits outside, and a humanoid figure passes in front of the camera and vanishes. At the time, I assumed of course that this was Prisoner Zero. But Prisoner Zero was not humanoid at that time. It was stated that it needed months to form enough of a bond with someone to take on a human form.
So what passed in front of the camera? Was it the future Doctor again, doing something to set things up properly? Did the future Doctor, perhaps, do something to the TARDIS to make it malfunction and bring the present Doctor back 12 years later instead of five minutes later like he planned? Did the future Doctor meddle in his own past, for some purpose? Perhaps originally the Doctor came back five minutes later like he planned and took little Amy for a spin around the universe and then he was never able to figure out in time that she was the key to the cracks. I dunno. Speculation!
At the end of the episode, when the Doctor leaves in the newly remodeled TARDIS, they go back to little Amy sitting outside waiting for the Doctor to return. Then there's the crazy TARDIS noise (you know the one), and THEN they switch to adult Amy sleeping in her bed who hears the noise and wakes up. Which I thought was weird, but it must have been nothing since Amy would have remembered and brought it up instead of harping on the 12 years thing over and over again. But maybe not. I think there's definitely something more going on here - maybe the Doctor came back and told little Amy something, which is the meaning of the whole "remember what I told you when you were seven" thing. I don't know! Exciting!
Insert theme music here.
Why has no one said anything about Doctor Who? (Vampires in Venice)
