Howling:Doctor losing his touch?

The Doctor brushed off the coincidental references to Amy's past because he was busy. He ignored the fact that Rory can't be there and sent him up to Amy without giving it a second thought. With how serious a situation this was and how much things have already been related to Amy, shouldn't the Doctor have been paying more attention to references to Amy?

He took Amy with him because he thought the house was too large for just her and her aunt. In Flesh and Stone, he realized that 26 06 2010 was important and was Amy's time. Too much focus on Amy for him to practically ignore everything related to her in The Pandorica Opens. V00D00M0NKY 07:23, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

In Vincent and the Doctor, the Doctor calls himself stupid and says that he is getting old. And as you said, it does seem like the Doctor is missing out on more things that most viewers have picked up on.

It could just be something by the Moff to remind us that even though he looks younger, he is getting older, and nothing really to do with the plot. Halftimelord 08:46, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

Or his perceptions are faulty. Something is deliberatly blinding his to the 'bleedin obvious'. It might be something he has done (will do?) to himself. He might be just being portrayed as a bit scatty so that the final cunning plan is all the more amazing. Jack Chilli 08:51, June 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Yeah, the more airheaded he acts, the better chance he has of catching someone off guard. After all, all his best enemies already know: 'Never let me talk!' Agonaga 15:25, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

It just seems to me that, if a future doctor is at work, he allowed himself to be put in the box. In fact he made pretty sure of it. Why would this future doc allow (or even risk) the complete destruction of the universe unless it was absolutly neccesary? He _needed_ to go into the box so he had to ensure that he would not suspect the trap to make it convincing. A plan so cunning he couldn't even tell himself so he had to mess with his own perceptions. Jack Chilli 12:00, June 21, 2010 (UTC)
