Theory:Doctor Who television discontinuity and plot holes/The Wedding of River Song


 * How was the timeline restored if River kissed a Teselecta?
 * Because the doctor was inside the Teselecta, he described it like wearing a suit, and it was shown when he grabbed rivers arm, that the restoration works through clothing, so the same princible applies here.
 * Or...
 * The scene that played out in The Impossible Astronaut always was the Teselecta being shot. When River managed to save the "Dcotor", time fractured. That would make River and the Teselecta the "opposite poles" of the event. While the Doctor was inside it, the "fix" wasn't dependant only on him.


 * How did the Teselecta start a regeneration process when receiving the initial shoot ?
 * The Teselecta is a shapeshifting robot, it could easily mimic the appearance of the start of a regeneration.


 * When Rory stays behind to face the Silents, he refuses to remove his eyepatch so as not to "forget what is coming", even though the others have removed their eyepatches and not forgotten.
 * Two possibilities:
 * The long exposure to the eyedrive allowed a buffer.
 * He was speaking specifically about the Silence that would come through the door.
 * I think it may be both. He would remomber something is coming, but was concerned that he would "miss" one or more as they came in and he lost eye contact with the individuals.
 * (Side issue: Keep in mind that River, Rory, the Doctor and Amy-Ganger were able to escape a hive/nest when there focus could not have been on all he Silence present.)


 * If Time stops at the lake BEFORE all the event's of sereies 6, how does alternative "all of time at once" Amy remember the Minitour even though they never met the Minitour time changed at a fixed point at the lake BEFORE that adventure. And yet Amy has a drwaing of the Minitour from her alternaive memories.
 * Because it was surpost to end with the doctor dieing, the doctor describes it as different versions of the same event, happening symulantously, as such it did happen, only it didn't, if you understand what I mean.
 * The Minotaur - as well a Pirate Amy and Siren (both from The Curse of the Black Spot) - could be bleed through. Same as River's presence - she was born after IA remember.
 * Best techno-babble reasoning? Three quartet are all "complex space time events" to one extent or another. In Amy's case that could translate into "remembering" the alternate time line.
 * The Doctor himself said that Amy has unique powers because of the Time Crack (even though they never technically existed). So Amy can remember an alternate timeline that didn't happen because of time being changed.
