True that. Good point. I had somehow managed to forget that.

Also, we understand that 1938 can't be reached by the Tardis, what is to stop the Doctor from going to 1939 or any other later year to see the Ponds?
I'd say "he can't screw with his own timeline"...except we know he can.

To be perfectly fair, she said something along the lines of "I'm surprised it hasn't sent me back in time" to which the Doctor replied that it was too weak to do it. Still, there could be other ways to hurt her, if it really wanted to.

Are you telling me they aren't going to make another episod set in New York ever? Because I'll believe it when I see it.
