This is what we've been building towards, since this series started and before - the apparent farewell of Amy and Rory. I say apparent because we've been tricked before, but it really is meant to be the end of an era. The official blurb: "The Doctor's heart-breaking farewell to Amy and Rory - a race against time through the streets of Manhattan, as New York's statues come to life around them..." Saying goodbye to "the first face that this face saw" is going to be hard... but hopefully brilliant at the same time.

Not long now. Nervous.
Hello Sweetie (in a very platonic way of course) ;)
It'll be nice to see River. But equally, it's been nice not having her around for a while!
Her appearances are made better by their infrequency :) - special.
hullo.
@KarenGillan2: and it begins....i am not holding it together!!!!!!!
Awwww!
MUSE
(somebody had to say it - as Lukeh isn't here to)
should we headping lou?
Hehe, appreciated!
can i just say, i have a cold and thus a sniffle. ...also something in my eye.
.. Angel of Liberty??
I like New York accent.
Hello! I'm with Lou watching on :)
Yay!!!
phew!
I spy an angel :
This building does not have curtains.
now would be a good time to mention i've not seen the angel things before.
Lou is already screaming ;)
They are properly creepy.
There's always a corridor.
They will only move when they're not being observed - which is apprently quantom-locked.
His older self...
what do they do when they find you?
The angels are brilliant :D
Send you back in time in order to harvest the time energy
cool!
Always with the flickering lights
Heheehhe.
Not sure he'll see it that way ;)
Awesome!
they're like very scary deloreans. only faster.
Green intro this time.
"I specifically remember not noticing them."
heeeeh!!
Is she meant to look like Harry Potter?
When will they mention Christmas?
Lou said thst at the EXACT same time
"I hate endings" - he's seen far too many of those in his time
No. I won't stand for it. He's defaced a book and now I don't care at all what happens.
he'd struggle with a kindle.
Amy playing pooh-sticks.
Amy's wearing more hoz stripes
River!!!
They are going to make me fear every statue ever. And yay for river!
Does anyone remember the little girl in the new york type streets a seaosn or two ago regenerating... guess it was River?
From the girl in the spacesuit - I thought we knew that already
Those glasses really are irritating.
noooooo cute!
Probably, just reminded me when she appeared
She keeps pushing them up her nose.
how long till we get 'spoilers?' :)
"Written in stone"
that was almost doc brown's gravestone.
and now we know how that graveyard is causally linked - that gravestone
baby angels!!
Footsteps are creepy!
... cherubs?
Mr C, what do you make of them so far? This is creepy!
making christine watch with the lights out. they're awesome.
This was a mistake. They will get in.
:D
don't blink...
Final checks for the wife!
Forgot they were married
... The Dalek's DB?
how did she get out?
Spoilers
once youre locked into the crystal maze you never get out,...
"If it was that easy, I'd get you to do it."
We've not seen her wrist
Owwww
Bless her.
Ow indeed
Regenerate it ... ?? ;)
Dude, you're good at this.
heheh!
Spot on every time
That staisecase looks a lot like Rose's mum and dad's one in the alternate cyberman universe
*staircase
Moffet is very predictable with the small stuff ;)
Agreed
old rory :(
To borrow a phrase from Lewis: OMG
Epic old man make up/prosthetics
Unhappen is my new favourite word.
Loving the almost :)
the Power of Love?
Husbabd; shutup.
The usual - run.
Loving the Angel of Liberty.
My my, what big teeth you have..
No way.
Rooorrryyyyy :(
They won't be able to show suicide at this time - surely
it's Sherlock all over again
he needs a delorean to catch him
No way. Again.
wWHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING
she did say she wanted a clean break.......
holy...
... no cameos from a true death ...
WTF
They're washing the tardis!
Dr Who does it again - sets up a huge problem, then solves it in a paragraph of script
"next time can we just go to the pub?"
what
"I'm so so sorry."
A Dr Who legend line
because they visited the graveyard before, then that was fixed - including the grave :O
One thing is nagging, that page of that book in the hamper, it's not been used yet
I like how it's just amy and dr's moment only... just as it begun
There are tears here!
Dry eyes hear (atm)
I didn't really understand it.
Lou's housemate is also crying. Just as a disclaimer for my safety.
*looks baffled*
They look better on him ;)
The afterword is sad :(
He snaffled them from that rowing thing.
Briliantly done arc!
Setting up the beginning of her own story !! :D
if she's dead she how's she gonna keep coming back like billie?
That was awesome. Me and lou are supposed to be going out for a meal in a mo after that!!!
That was one of the best written eps of Dr Who I've seen in a long while :)
I think I must have missed something. Will have to rewatch.
heh, that was angel from home and away. #differentkindofangel
Anywho, thanks for the comments chaps. Back at Christmas!
cheers all.
so i literally just cried my eyes out.. Moff you are a beautiful writer.
Remember everyone, tonight: Don't. Blink.
i wish i did. want my money back :)
I just think the whole relationship between Rory, Amy and the Doctor happened too quickly. I guess that's the problem with such short series.
i think billie leaving was sadder/better/more emotional. i think that's the only other person i've seen leave.
Donna's was pretty emotional, but you didn't like Donna,
meh.
:)
hmmm. think I will have to watch it again.
not as emotional as Bernard Cribbins.
