The stuff about possible, not definite, futures, was a bit of a problem, too. That's a serious bit of discontinuity going on there. Drive-by comment, apologies, but this caught my eye. One, I think it was mostly a fourth-wall-breaking line meant for the audience - our future isn't set. Two, the Doctor might also be thinking of Gallifrey and wondering if she can somehow save it from the Master. Three, I'd say the idea of 'possible, not definite, futures' goes back to at least Pyramids of Mars; in short: wibbly-wobbly-timey-wimey. *g* (Apologies. I realise I have become of one THOSE fans. *tiptoes out*)
