The Mystery that is River Song



River Song



The sexy future Time Traveller, who is she?

She travel's in the Doctor's future and the Doctor travel's in River's past. This is one lady shrouded in mystery, maybe she is the Doctor's Wife?  We all know the end for River Song unless Steven Moffat has a few plot twist's up his sleeve. *Spoiler's*  It all start's for River, as far as we are concerned, in the two part story Silence in the Library and  Forest of the Dead.  The Tenth Doctor didn't know River but she apparently knew him? 

 



Blue TARDIS Diary *Spoiler's*

River Song turn's up with a TARDIS blue Diary which contain's the Doctor's future, maybe River was only meant to turn up in these two great episode's, but the charismatic Alex Kingston made such an impact as River that thankfully she was brought back for future episode's.  Catch Alex Kingston as River Song in Silence in the Library, Forest of the Dead, The Time of Angels, Flesh and Stone, The Pandorica Opens, The Big Bang, The Impossible Astronaut and Day of the Moon.

Alex Kingston is set to star in later episode's of the current series run, when we will find out who River Song actually is? Who she killed? And her importance to the Doctor!

Dirty "Harry" River

I for one hope this is not the end for River Song in Doctor Who, because she has been one of the best thing's to happen to this great show in a long time.  Alex Kingston has brought so much as River Song in each episode she has been in. You can see the great chemistry her character has had with both the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors! All we can do is hope she is brought back many, many more time's!



Please Mr. Moffat, we want more River Song!!

Acting The Heart Out

 Having watched ‘The Impossible Astronaut’ for the second time, it really hit me just how good an Actress Karen Gillan is. 

Being in the fortunate position of knowing what it is like behind the camera, it is quiet difficult to reach a place of absolute pain and anguish. Such dramatic acting to ensure believability is a skill which I find can be harnessed by accessing the core memory in which one’s own sadness is derived from. I had wondered how Karen reached this very deep emotional area while filming.

In contrast, Alex Kingston’s quiet and matter of fact way of acting, even though she showed she was holding back emotion for her character, was wonderful to behold also. To act as though you are unwilling to show emotion, but expressing how hard it is to keep that emotion from your voice and face is quite a feat in itself.
