Talk:Rory Williams

Why is it now assumed that Rory Williams is Amy Pond's fiance? There is no evidence for this. All we know is that Rory is Amy's "sort of" boyfriend, and that two years later she is engaged to someone who MIGHT be Rory, but we don't actually KNOW. Stop writing this as if it is undoubted fact, when it is NOT.

I agree that we shouldn't jump to conclusions, but it IS the most likely outcome. Also, sign your posts, please.Excalibur-117 11:32, April 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * Is it? Rory's reaction to the mention of Jeff's name makes him at least a plausible romantic interest, even though filming reports point to Rory's presence in more episodes.  Czech Out  ☎ | ✍ 22:34, April 5, 2010 (UTC)

The 'Vampires in Venice' script leak heavily implies that it's Amy and Rory getting married and the trip to Venice is a wedding present. So there is evidence for it. I do agree though that articles shouldn't bear this kind of info unless in a rumours section until broadcast.86.134.188.188 12:13, April 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yep, I know of the leaked script. But the point is we can't go off of stuff like that, cause we only have a portion.  Even if that does actually make it into the final edit, and there's evidence that it probably does from various trailers, it's not necessarily so straightforward.  For instance, Amy could have been engaged to him, given him back the ring, gotten engaged to someone else.  The Doctor could believe that she made a mistake, so he's taking Rory along to give them a chance to rekindle their relationship.   Czech Out   ☎ | ✍  16:03, April 20, 2010 (UTC)

What the Doctor isn't saying...
Technology: Laptop Computer with video confrence capabilities. Cell phones all over the place, with cameras.

Rory's badge, which they zoomed in on purpose: Date of issue: 30,11, 1990

Assumed date the bulk of the story takes place: 2008 or 2010 (depending on if the 'two years later' put it in the current year, or two years ahead of us)

This would mean Rory has been a nurse for 18-20 years. He said he was made to dress up as the Raggedy Doctor when 'we were kids' to Amy Pond. To go through schooling and become a nurse, he'd have to be 20 or so years old. This would mean that he is roughly 40 in the main portion of the story? I don't think so. We never see the date, and only see cell phones and laptops which indicate it is near 2010. Either Rory has a false ID (he was also in the coma ward, when his ID says emergency ward), Rory is impossibly older than he should be, or something is out-of-time with technology. The doctor notices the camera phones, and notices Rory's 1990 issued badge.

Is something up with Rory, time / technology, or the Doctor himself?

 * The production error is a killer, but my mind is saying that the Doctor was still "cooking", so his brain isn't functioning correctly. Which is why he saw 1990 instead of another number. That's how I'm choosing to see it. Mc hammark 08:56, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

Maybe the person who printed the badge at the hospital made a typo and didn't notice. When Rory noticed and asked for a new one they couldn't be bothered to reprint and laminate just for a few digits so they told him to tipex it but, shock horror, he couldn't find any. Isn't that a bit more realistic than trying to reconcile 1990 with 2010?82.45.232.218 20:51, May 16, 2010 (UTC)
