Howling:Claras Father

So far we have been introduced to her mother, and we have a name, but not her father.

I wonder if all the smoke and mirrors are a distraction from him. That car may be the key. Perhaps what we assume would have been his death was fixed and Ellie Ravenwood somehow violated that.(The last time we saw that car another fixed point was violated) They fall in love, have a child, and Clara is the result. Perhaps she is a "Floating" point in time (opposite of fixed) and when certian conditions are met she is reborn of a human host.

In any event, has her father been properly introduced to the viewer? I can not seem to remember his name used, even once.

(in that exact way, at that exact time)<--seems like there is more to this. We can assume that his last name is Oswald.

Perhaps he is the key. Perhaps Clara is a distraction. Perhaps his full name is Lee Harvey Oswald, perhaps the car wouldnt have killed him, but damaged him mentally. Perhaps this leads to the assasination of Kennedy, and perhaps his injuries being prevented caused a second timeline to be born, as a fixed point is violated and Clara's birth is the result of it.

And perhaps to fix it he will have to prevent Claras parents from ever meeting. And perhaps Clara survives the timeline repairs because the Doctor rememebers her. She would be "outside" the repaired timeline in much the same way that the Doctor was outside the universe in "Pandorica"

Fallingstar1971, "Perhaps his full name is Lee Harvey Oswald": The dates are all wrong for this &, in The Rings of Akhaten, his name was given as Dave. From his accent, Dave Oswald is English, not American. --89.240.242.40talk to me 04:31, May 10, 2013 (UTC)

When was he introduced as David? They introduce Clara to the Doctor, but keep their names to themselves. We only get Ellies name from the headstone. The fathers name is never stated. 68.187.229.195talk to me 13:53, May 10, 2013 (UTC)

Also, in the beginning of that episode, we see a swinging gate, that clicks shut. What seems to be a strong breeze blowing her father into the street. I wonder if there is an invisable person there, one that absent mindedly closed the gate behind them and pushed Claras father into the street only to have him saved by Ellie?
