"He really does die...and that really is him." Putnal08 Send a noteboard - 30/08/2011 12:18:50 AM
I recall Moffat himself saying that it is the real Doctor that perishes on the beach. Running through my collection of the DVR to find the comment.

EDIT: Found it. About 6 minutes into the episode of Doctor Who Confidential covering the Impossible Astronaut. The quote follows:

"He really does die in that first scene, and that really is him."

I realize there could be some work-rounds to the quote from Moffat, but it's the first thing I've found to give evidence as to the identity of the Doctor at the lake.
