River has her vortex manipulator and if New York's too busy, then why not land the TARDIS down the road and get a bus in to see them!

It's all a way to go "Surprise! Amy and Rory are back" at some point in the future, probably. I did tear up though. About three times. Edited because I remembered the fact that something about that page he ripped out meant he read that he never saw them again? So it became fixed and he couldn't change it. I still think they'll come back somehow though, at some point. If they can send Rose to a parallel universe and still bring her back, 1930's New York isn't difficult to get around by comparison.

Until Saturday I had assumed that Amy and Rory would put in an appearance for the 50th anniversary next year. Now I'm not so sure.

Doctor Who: Amy and Rory's departure – The alternative screenplay ending originally written as the finale to The Angels Take Manhattan rejected by Moffat & co:
Personally, I think this would have been far far far better than the ending Moffat changed it to.

Thing is, this is credited to Chris Chibnall who had nothing to do with that last episode. I love the ending, don't get me wrong, but I don't think it was ever the real ending to the episode.

Doctor Who will return to BBC One this Easter, it has been confirmed.
The sci-fi drama will begin its new eight-week run from Saturday, March 30, 2013.
Matt Smith will appear alongside new companion Jenna-Louise Coleman (Clara) in a series of adventures written by showrunner Steven Moffat, Mark Gatiss and Luther creator Neil Cross.
Celebrated author Neil Gaiman will also contribute a new episode featuring iconic monsters the Cybermen.
Moffat previously revealed that the show's 2013 run would include a "modern urban thriller", a "base-under-siege story", an "absolutely mental" period drama and a "fanboy-pleasing" finale.
A one-off special - celebrating Doctor Who's 50th anniversary - is expected to follow the eight new episodes in November.

'Doctor Who' Steven Moffat on 50th: 'I'm aware of the expectation' Published Wednesday, Jan 30 2013, 17:31 GMT | By Morgan Jeffery Source: digitalspy
Doctor Who's Steven Moffat has dropped new hints about the show's 2013 run.
The showrunner told the Radio Times that "the Doctor's greatest secret is in jeopardy" in the eight upcoming episodes.
"We'll be up in the air, we're under the water, we're on a fantastic alien planet, we're back in time [and] we're forward in time," he said. "The Doctor's greatest secret is in jeopardy."
Casting was recently announced for Doctor Who anniversary biopic An Adventure in Space and Time - penned by Mark Gatiss - but Moffat explained that he is wary about confirming any further plans for the sci-fi drama's 50th.
"I don't want people to get bored just yet," he elaborated. "So let's just wait and get our next eight episodes out of the way before we start talking about it.
"I'm mostly excited [about the anniversary], a little bit nervous and aware of trying not to let people down."
Doctor Who will return to BBC One this Easter, beginning its new eight-week run on Saturday, March 30.

Love this fan-made trailer for 50th Anniversary, it got retweeted by Daphne Ashbrook (Grace from TV Movie) on Twitter.

He'd be a great Doctor, i'm not sure if he'd do it though. I think Sean Pertwee would be a good choice, he has already expressed an interest in the role.

I'm more intrigued as to whom the next showrunner will be as personally I feel Steven Moffat has been far more effective with Sherlock than on Dr Who where his best work came writing episodes for Russell T Davies to direct.
Personally, I'd like to see Alice Troughton (no relation) take over as she did a brilliant job with the Merlin episodes she directed; and has previous experience with directing episodes of Torchwood & The Sarah Jane Adventures.

I love to see Rory Kinnear in the lead role, the son of the late comedian Roy Kinnear. Sean Pertwee and Alan Davies will also be a good candidates for the role of Dr. Who
They won't be able to afford Benedict now, he is making a big name of himself getting big major roles in bigger movies, he would want more money for it, he is actually getting big rave reviews for his casting in the new Star Trek movie which would make him one of the biggest British actors at the moment he seems to be hot property.

If they decide to go for an older actor (which is doubtful) Bill Nighy would be my choice.

Personally I would be very far from unhappy if they repeat the 5th Doctor route and appoint an already established actor from a former TV character role Peter Davison (Tristan Farnon, All Creatures Great & Small) and go for Colin Morgan (Merlin).

Sunday 7 April - 11.15am-12 noon (BBC RADIO 4)
The Reunion
In this edition of The Reunion, Sue MacGregor reunites five people who created and starred in the first series of a television landmark, Dr Who. Fifty years later, those who crammed nervously into the BBC's Lime Grove Studios in 1963 recount the triumphs and disasters that ushered in the longest-running science-fiction series in the world.
When American TV executive Sidney Newman was drafted into revitalise the BBC Drama department in the early 1960s, his idea for an ageing time-traveller who would illuminate both human history and alien civilisations struggled to be successfully realised.
After a number of other directors refused to work on the project, a 24-year-old Waris Hussein took the job. The only Indian-born director within the BBC at that time, he felt the stern gaze of the 'old order' upon his work.
The first episode was recorded on the day President Kennedy was assassinated and transmitted the next day, despite concerns that the show might be postponed.
Dr Who was then played by the British actor William Hartnell. His sharp, sometimes grumpy demeanour came out of his increasing difficulty in learning the scripts, but the audience immediately took him to their hearts and the series had nearly six million viewers by Christmas.
Joining Sue are Waris Hussein, the director of the episode; Carole Ann Ford, who played the Doctor's granddaughter and companion Susan; William Russell, who played the Doctor's right-hand man, Ian Chesterton; actor Jeremy Young, who was the first Dr Who enemy - Caveman Kal; and television presenter Peter Purves, who played the companion, Stephen Taylor, to William Hartnell’s Dr in the mid Sixties.
