BBC should air this.
Glitch_FACE Thank you!!! That would be amazing if it happened😆
it is of exceptional quality already it wouldnt even need them to edit it. the best time to air it would be just before capaldis sendoff methinks.
Glitch_FACE Thank you so much😄
I loved it when the father says 2 river do you trust this man, river i Absolutely trust him, father so he's not just a madman then, river i Absolutely trust him😂😂❤
The comical actions & the funny dialogues between River Song and the 11th doctor Matt Smith seems truly brilliantly written by a genius. Words can create such magical moments in life.
River:"I absolutely trust him"
Soldier:"He's not some kind of mad man then?"
River:"I absolutely trust him"
🤣
I always loved how she didn't deny that he was a mad man
🤣yeah she have all the right to not tell him how mad he is 😂
Tenth: "Time can be rewritten"
River: "Not those times, not one line, don't you dare"
Eleventh: "I will not forget one line of this, not one day, I swear"
Maxim Militiae 😢😢
The saddest part of River with 10 wasn't her death it was Donna's realising the River knew the doctor but not her so she knows someone will happen to her 😥
Anna Shaw well, she must have done her research of the Doctor's previous companions. That's why she said to her she's from his personal future. Because River knows the day for Donna is coming, like what happened with 10. She couldn't even say thank you for saving the whole of reality. That's what broke River the most with Donna I think.
@@annashaw6538 thats fucked up tbh donna was my favorite

The River Song story arc from Ten to Eleven to Twelve was the best sci-fi story arc ever. And whoever thought of having them meet in reverse was an absolute genius.
STEVEN MOFFAT!
Or should we say in rivers timeline
From Eleven to Twelve to Ten
Okay i'll go now
Somehow seeing everything from River's perspective made her whole arc far sadder.
Vc pd ir no meu canal
I'm just glad they gave her the ending she deserved, after she was just a side part of the last Ponds episode (and we're left to assume she'll be back often) and the suddenly she's dead in his timeline and some ghost? When, time travel means that shouldn't be true? Otherwise he should have had that "echo" ghost the entire time since Silence in the Library. And they just used her as some weird pawn of the plot rather than a very established returning character getting the dignity she deserved. The Husbands of River Song really celebrated the character and their relationship, and gave her a beautiful send off.
“Hello sweetie” always breaks my heart
But the “goodbye sweetie” makes it mean so much more
Only in Doctor Who can Amy name her daughter after her daughter.
@@a-random-human-being2311 love how confusing this is to people who haven’t watched doctor who 😂😂😂
Only in doctor who can you be killed by your wife whilst your best friend,who’s best friend is your wife, is a few feet away with your wife whilst pregnant with your wife.
Yes its a bit of a writer's paradox like in one of capaldi episode !
Sarah named her son after her son
@@letotodu Bootstrap paradox is down right one of the coolest thing I have ever heard.
The River Song story arc was by far the most impressive produced in the new Doctor Who series. I was actually really hard to watch the series after she left because the story was so well written and the acting between Matt Smith and Alex Kingston was so damned good! Thanks for compiling this!!
You're welcome😄 and River Song's story arc was definitely one of the best!!!
Cait K completely agree she was only killed off in the Library episode because Russell only wanted her for the two episodes just to leave people guessing at who she was to the Doctor! Steven didn’t want to kill her off because he loved the character he had written and written it with Alex in mind so it paid off when he took over and found away to bring her back because after the library episodes a lot of the fans was interested in who she really was and wouldn’t drop it coming up with assorts of ideas about who she was. Was she a future version of the Doctor or Master? Was she his wife (which it turns out she is/was!) because of that throw away line about them being “an old married couple!” And River’s face when it’s said to them!?! Steven had planned out her whole story arc before he took over from Russell that’s why the first chance he got he brought her back in 11’s first season and deliberately gave Amy the surname Pond. Have to give the man credit he knew what he was doing with the character only having her coming and going without spoiling her character or over using her so the fans didn’t get bored of her. Russell only wanted her to add a bit more mystery to David’s Doctor. Steven did well spreading her storyline over seven seasons bringing it full circle in the Husbands Of River Song, as well as writing and filming a lot of the things she says to 10 about what adventures they’d been on etc... either in full episodes or mini episodes for on screen and then the Big Finish audiobooks and actual books. I would like to see her one more time though I’d like to see her with 13 to see how they interact with each other (River doesn’t see a different face when she sees the Doctor, to her he/she is just one person. Her comment “you showed up on my doorstep with a new haircut and suit!” Making it clear she sees past his/her ever changing face!) and explain to the new companions their actually married. I think Alex and Jodie would be awesome together in scenes as River and the Doctor saving the day just one more time because it’s also made clear in 12’s Christmas episodes and final season that he really does love her mourning her death and having just two photos on his desk Susan his Granddaughter and River his wife. And he knew the next time he sees her after Husbands of River Song she was going to her death that’s why when he gives her the sonic as a gift he scans her first storing her imprint and all her memories in the sonic knowing that he’ll work out he’s actually saved her in the library even though she dies which 10 actually says when he’s trying to work out why he gave her a sonic screwdriver at some point even saying to Donna “I’m very good, I SAVED HER!” And he ran off to quickly upload her to database before he lost her for good. X
@@river-phoenixlunapavier2641 thanks for that summary, I actually didn't know the back story, but i always did prefer Steven's Doctor Who writing over Russell, although I do appreciate that Russell brought the character back and gave him an interesting flavour.
I agree I would love to see the new Doctor with River at least once! Maybe in a moment of weakness 13 breaks the pact to not 'rewrite' their story line just because she misses River so much. Perhaps that would mess up the story 11 and river had and 13 now has to fix it!!
As for River's death, i though eventually 11 met River's ghost (an episode with Clara) and let River's ghost finally fade away because she was just a shadow, so River got her final goodbye... sniff!
What you missed is Moffat.
Cait K - We _did_ stop watching after this story arc. It was _never_ as good after she was gone. The entire series ended for our house after that episode aired.
It was the _perfect_ ending, with no more spoilers. 🤗🌻
"Everyone knows that everyone dies, but no one knows it like the Doctor"
TheMinecraftMiner "But I do think that all the skies of all the worlds, might just turn dark if he ever for one moment, accepts it."
When the music rose everyone in the room..their breath caught...and I had the biggest grin.
The only one woman worthy of being called the Doctor's Wife.
-steals his car without evidence
-slaps him with the very hand he healed
-obeys the same rules as him despite being human
At this point I'm pretty sure this woman can kill the Akhaten God all the same.
Truly the wife of The Doctor.
And she never requested the doctor to save her once! More than that, she slapped him when he healed her broken hand. Truly, she was born to kill the doctor, to destroy humanity; she died saving it along with her beloved doctor. Such magical is her unconditional love towards her husband.
Thank you so very much Bradley!
Thank you so very much for the response!
She's not human but yeah
@@amyvaneekeren6548 Very much true...I forgot... thanks for reminding me 😀 River Song was not human... she was a time - head ... half time lord ...she could regenerate like the doctor 😃 Thank you Amy... this name reminds me of somebody very dear to me and the 11th
doctor... guess who..?... Amelia Pond.
Watching it from the doctors perspective was fine. I cried unbelievably hard watching it from hers.
As did I.
The fact she says his future is her past. And one day she will meet him and he does not know she is and its going to kill her. Is so sad but she wouldn't have it any other way
All anyone will ever tell you is that when the wind stands fair and the night is perfect… when you least expect it… but always… when you need it the most… there is a Song.
that gave me shivers
definitely think BBC should release a box set called the timeline of river song that has all her episodes in order of how she lived them + the mini-episodes and maybe some short stuff from the 24 years in dirium or the audio stuff from her diary. id buy it all if i could
I hope so too 😄 ♥️ Love the idea 💗💞💗 l would like to see River Song as the next doctor 👍👩🔬🤗 ♥️💯♥️ Love from India 😄
This would be epic!
And they should add a journal that looks like her diary!
Trouble is she arrives several times in some episodes at different times in her personal time line
I agree 👍 River Song, what a great character. I loved her ❤️🌟👍
@@PeteBrazierTheBigFishCafe they’d probably just put it in order of the latest river in the episode, like how Day of the Doctor isn’t in three different points in the series, only where it is for the latest (eleven)
Alex is literally perfect casting for River *chefs kiss*
I really wish Twelve and RiverSong had gotten more time together. They had amazing chemistry!
I mean 24 years we never got to see. It must have been wonderful
They really did
Exactly. Instead, they put all the focus on Clara. I like Clara at first but the further I watched her the less I am interested in her. I don't know what but there is something about that character I can't put my hands on. I like Jenna Coleman though. She is gorgeous.
River Song is my single favorite fictional character of all time, in any genre or format. Perfect combination of writing and the amazing talent of Alex Kingston.
I am certainly going to miss Moffat's writing and the way he tied things together. Everything was so wibly wobobly. And timey wimely.
Some fans criticise Moffat's work but I think he is brilliant, writes great stories and characters. I'm looking forward to seeing what Chris brings to the new series and how he changes the show
James Crothers yes I agree wholeheartedly.He is amazing I could look at those episodes and I am never bored
given the state of things in season XII... oh yes, those were the good times
@@mynameiswritinwater I tried so hard to enjoy the latest seasons. I really did.
@@chaoswarhound It's sad. It's Paul McGann all over again, where a fantastic Doctor gets completely overshadowed with canon-breaking writing. Hopefully the current crew can get it together unlike last time.
Rory seeing River in prison while he's in centurion garb is between Angels take Manhatten and the husbands of River song. She's shocked bc she knows Rory is dead essentially but had to hide it
Wait what?
@@arlieklaasse7048 WHOLE RIVER STORY happens backwards to Dr main story that we see.
What is happening is already River's past.
It cannot be because river was pardoned from prison in the angels take Manhattan and in a good man goes to war she was in prison
@@elijahmitchell9944 ans also she wouldn't be able to see them again after they were taken by the angels as tragically as it is
It’s sweet that Amy and Rory at least grew up with there daughter, and took care of her. Mel is the reason why she is born because she brought Rory and Amy together.
I agree
River : Look at my eyes, and say that you know me, Doctor, please.
All the years I thought it was just for the typical dramatic writing, but now I realized how it just makes sense.
The time of the Doctor and River Song essentially flows backwards.
She never met the 10th in person, and now knowing that the 10th also never met her before, she deduced that she couldn't venture further from this point of time.
That she'll never ever meet the Doctor again.
Doctor: Where did you get these cuffs?!
River: Spoilers😘
(Brilliant character funny, mysterious, Impactful, and genius)
Ravenclaw BNed Great summary of River Song👍
It makes you cry when she says "spoilers" to hide some sad moments and smiles to hide her own feelings.River is truly a brave & kind human being who is ready to face every difficult situation standing side by side with the doctor risking even her life.
Thank you so very much.
River and the Doctor. The most tragic love story.
"there's two of you, the mind races" how did I forget about that line just spent the last 5 minutes laughing so hard i started coughing
😆 ikr
S06E07 in Demon's Run,
River: "Yes, from a different timeline"
Rory: "Unless there is two of him (Doctor)."
River: "That's a whole different birthday 😏"
ua-cam.com/video/advbIzmQ8yw/v-deo.html
21:31 I’m an archeologist. Look, I’ve got a trowel! Kinda funnier than having a screwdriver
Julian Stribling sonic trowel!
Julian Stribling wasn't that Greg Davies head on the table having a trowel pointed at him?
At least they were consistent with river songs timeline from the first time we meet her to the time we say goodbye which and away is both x.
Vampire Captain I made it 69
We need a River and Jack series. It would be wildly chaotic and brilliant. Also while Jack would be a flirtatious mess he'd be very apprehensive knowing that her man is the most powerful man in the universe
I guess even though their timelines were reversed, it wasnt perfectly backwards. It appears River bounced around the Doctor’s timeline a bit near the end of her life. It’s to be expected with time travelers. How Moffat kept all this straight in his head is mind boggling.
I have to admit...when I saw her for the first time and they hinted in the Silence of the Library who she was, I was like, " _Nooooo .... _*_SHE_*_ will be his wife one day?_ Eeeew" And was hoping not
....but omg...did they make us love her and approve...and miss her so much...I love how even as 12, The doctor loved her so very much...
Just watched this after not watching any Doctor Who for quite a while. I'd forgotten just how GOOD it used to be. Epic, huge, sweeping in scale, but always very, very human. They were a beautiful couple. I'm going to go back and watch my box sets again very soon. Thank you for reminding me.
You’re welcome and I was thinking of bingeing Doctor Who again but there’s so many new shows I want to watch as well. So I may just watch all of the 10th Doctor episodes instead
"Epic but human" - that's such a good description! Nobody could have played that part like Alex Kingston. Thank god they cast her in it.
You have missed hell of a lot.!!!
"Oh that's so close to the perfect sentence" Oh river 😂👌
"Oh, there's two of you! ....the mind races!"
@@Sithspit_Rogue hey what episode is this? i don't know how but i've never seen this... two doctors, two rivers... and i can't find it
Samixx it's the night and the Doctor mini episodes
@@samixx6569 , what he said below your question.
@@samixx6569 i think it is called the night and the doctor but its a mini ep
I would love an episode where river just bumps into Whittaker and says oops sorry and walks away and Whittaker is just stunned as river walks away, just a random cameo at the end of the episode
I'd want more than that. Like maybe a little tease of flirting which makes Yaz, Ryan, & Graham confused &/or uncomfortable
River randomly plops down as the gang are all eating in a resturant, with a plate of chips.
short discussion, a mention of something important for the episode, followed by a
"Hey, dont forget its mom's birthday coming up and she would really like to see you."
"Ya? its a bit complicated but ill try"
Quick kiss, steals the psychic paper, runs off.
"who was that? your sister?"
"oh that was my wife, we never meet in the right order"
"I think she stole your psychic paper"
"yeah but she always returns it" reaches across and pulls it out of the inside pocket of someones coat.
I want to see this
Honestly speaking. I could see River and Whitaker being together. River has mentioned she’s been married to a woman.
@@hunterbeach9941 and plus that would give them one more representation brownie point, (it would also work with the existing lore, because that marriage already happened, so people cant even call it a bullshit attempt to appeal to the LGBT, unlike a certain wizarding world writer,)
when I first seen the library and river I was like oh ok that cool and suck no biggy, but then after seeing the Library it gives me a tear in the eyes very good story arc
"I absolutely trust him" "He's not some sort of mad man then?" "I absolutely trust him"
Amazing
Well, it wasn't a "no"
From her perspective the more she falls in love with him, the less in love he is with her. So at 21:42 her speech about be the women who loves the doctor but the doctor does not lover hurts so much more.
“Shut up, dad! I’m focusing on a dress size!”
😂
When your girlfriend's best friend calls you dad?!
@@annashaw6538 hahahahahahahah
@@annashaw6538 let's be thankful she didnt say "daddy" otherwise Amy would have SOOOOO many questions
@@IvanIsYda_ 😂😂 yes definitely! One major question on top of the million other questions she probably had.
@@annashaw6538 _WHEEZE_
Oh my god. Oh my god. I never got it when her digital self showed up to say goodbye. I always hoped the Doctor would show up to the library and use regeneration energy to regenerate her and now I know it's impossible and I'M NOT OKAY! Also I cried through this ENTIRE video.
Jimmy H what do you mean?
This is a great interpretation of dementia for such old people being in love. My grandparents are going through this as we speak, this hit home.
😞💔 I'm so sorry
I loved the River Song character, along with the Ponds interaction with Matt Smith and River. I’ve kind of lost interest since they left!
Meredith I looked back at the Capaldi shows and the 2nd time around really liked it .
vernessa mitranee Durbal same here I think the 2nd capaldi series is much better than the first
Rosie X His was the first series I purchased of Doctor did not regret doing .The beauty of Moffat writing you sometimes see things you may have missed the first time
I also really liked capaldi but I just didn't like Clara AT ALL. And Bill Potts was even worse. I just skipped scenes lol
Amy, Donna and Rose were the best
When River said "Goodbye, Sweetie" I cried so much 😭
one of the best story/character arcs of the whole show. as a long time viewer i've thought since i was a kid that it would be possible for someone to meet the Doctor at random points in his timestream but this was the best possible use of that concept. the first episode with River i was thinking 'finally! i knew we'd get someone like this sooner or later!' but then there was the extra intrigue that it looked like there was a romantic involvement and that was completely unexpected. really brilliant. and then to have a set of companions be her parents, AND she's got regenerations which she can transfer!!! solving the 12 Doctor limit they were fast approaching! she's the swiss army knife of Doctor Who characters!
River: “I can’t let you die-“
Doctor: “But I have to die”
River “SHUT UP… I can’t let you die without knowing that you are loved…”
I love that little ‘your interrupting my big speech here’ moment lol
It’s been nearly four years since I uploaded this video and people are still watching it and leaving lovely comments. Thank you so much, it means a lot😄
Ayesha Gulam No she is human but has time lord abilities like regenerating because she was concived inside the time votrex while the tardis was in flight. Which caused some time energy to seep into the fetus. Giving her the ability to regenerate. This is explained in this scene from A Good Man Goes to War ua-cam.com/video/iBp4OgrlweY/v-deo.html
Ayesha Gulam Well I guess he had to move on after Rose. She was stuck on the parallel Earth with the 10th Doctor copy. So since the actual Doctor couldn’t be with her he had to move on. He then fell in love with River and they got married! Hence their relationship being different since they are a married couple, whereas the Doctor was not married to Rose. They didn’t get to reach that point in their relationship.
Such a beautiful episode that never was.
You're right.
This should've been aired.
Simon P Thanks for the support😄
Agreed. I hate when shows try to squeeze another episode out of a season, and being funny and cutting back and forth. BUT THIS, this would be welcomed. At the end of season 10 f.e.x this could air as a special, River's Story. It would be watched by many fans. There's enough footage to make it good, and it is presented in a new way, much sadder as you see everything from her perspective.
"We've got 10 minutes, get dressed" "Ouh that's so close to the perfect sentence" God damn, River wasn't just sassy.
I kinda gathered that when the screamer comment happened in Impossible Astronaut
I hope they keep bringing her back shes my favorite to watch she is wonderful actress. I love the Doctor and Song what a good match dont see anyone who could be better, no one.
Did anyone see the episode "Angels Take Manhattan" .... Spoilers (^_^)
In that episode it is shown why River turned down the Doctors offer to travel with him. She is afraid of allowing him to see her age and she doesn't want him to see that she is "Only" a human that can be damaged... I thought that was so sad, she loves him so much and would literally die for him but she thinks she isn't worthy of him. In the episode "Husbands of River Songs" it is revealed that she doesn't think he loves her, she says "how could someone as great as him love a ordinary moral, he would never come for me."
So comes off as so strong and confident but in truth she is so fragile inside; it's sad. She wasn't crying when he took her to Derilium because she knew it meant she would soon die, she was crying because she thought he was going to dump her. That he was bored of her and was going to choose to never see her again.
i loved the relationship beteen River and the Doctor. watching how they fell in love and chemistry between them through the regneration s .
how does this not have more views? thanks for compiling this. God I adore this character. She is certainly my favorite from this show, and maybe of all time.
Emily Hope Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed this video!!!
@@bradleynathaniel-thomas this video was amazing. River Rules!!😎❤
Lou Bot Thank you😄👍
I adore River Song and I 100% believe that Peter Capaldi's Doctor and River were a match made in heaven. :)
I have always loved that line: "I hate you." then he says, "No you don't."
"Fixed points can be rewritten" "NO THEY CANT OF COURSE THEY CANT WHO TOLD YOU-"
Doesnt this mean he created a fixed point in time in the future for her in order for her to spend time with a doctor who knows all about her and to spend what 24 years with her and to save her life just by putting off darillium
It's called a time loop or a predestination paradox
21:49 this speech hit me like a train.
Danielle M Hall
It sums up River’s character so well.
River: I absolutely trust him
Father Octavian: So he's not some kind of madman then?!??!!!
River:....I absolutely trust him
Father Octavian: we're all gonna die..
One of the most amazing characters, and story lines ever penned
Absolutely love this tribute to an awesome character and great storyline. The chemistry between River and her Doctors was just so lovely and sweet.
Thank you😀
I would love to see River Song in season 12. It would be so cool.
We don't like to say goodbye, like the doctor.
But I really don't wanna ruin her story. As much as I hate it sometimes we should let things end.
I love River Song! My favourite character from Dr Who! Alex Kingston is the best!!!!
Whoever made this, I love you. This is so amazing... I’m in tears. Thank you very much
Gulzhan BAGDAT Thank you for the lovely comments, I appreciate it😄👍
12's hello sweetie melts my heart
Amazing character, amazing actress. Thanks for putting this together.
I tend to forget that Amy tried to kill her own daughter...
And River tried to kill herself too once
@@abcdefgh6951 I think she was intentionally misfiring, considering she always hits doctors hat precisly
@@CalistFitness but she didn´t know the astronaut was her...
@@abcdefgh6951 she did, she said to amy that she had to pretend she didnt know the astronaut, but the river invited to the lake was from later in his timeline, already in prison
@@CalistFitness oh- you are right
i must have watched this at least 20 times over the years, i still cry every time.
The episode of the pandorica opens happens earlier in her story, because there's where she gets the Vortex manipulator, and in the Good man goes to war, she already has it.
blackdark1516 Good point but this website www.thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/doctorwho/themes/river-songs-diary/ and this one www.google.co.uk/amp/www.radiotimes.com/amp/news/2015-12-25/river-songs-doctor-who-life-in-order shows I did the timeline in the right order. So maybe River lost her vortex manipulator and needed another one
CK P timey wimey
@@yjstarboy1582 stuff
I cried for an hour after this
But it was happiness
Sunny Dayz Thank you, I'm glad it was happy crying😀
Thank YOU for making such a wonderful video about a wonderful woman
Bradley Thomas The 11th doctor could never understand 'happy crying' until the end of "The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe" when Amy and Roy insisted that he have Christmas dinner with them, he was so happy that he started crying, then he understood. - The 12th doctor felt as it were some kind of "malfunction".
Mine was sad crying. Everything is sad when it ends.
The relationship of Doctor and River is like a couple were the husband has Alzheimer's. Its sad though.
As much as I loved every single moment of River's story, when Twelve looks at her after her speech and gives her the line, "Hello, Sweetie," I think my heart burst. Love this, thank you.
Yeah it’s a great moment, glad you liked the video😁
I grew up in the 60's watching Dr Who and loved them all, my favourite assistant of that period was Sarah Jane Smith, what a great actress and a huge lose, but River Song played by that fantastic actress Alex Kingston for me is the greatest Dr Who character of all time. Beautifully written by the team and brought to life by Alex, it has made you laugh & cry and keeps me in love with this wonderful institution that is Dr Who. if I was only allowed to watch one programme for the rest of my life this would be the one. Some would say but it's a children's programme, yes it is part of my childhood that I wish to keep into my old age and as men never grow up I have an excuse. I do not care what people say I love Dr Who. I have never meet any of the cast but that's ok with me I am not a super fan I just like to enjoy it in my way.
OH THE FEELS!!!!!! 😁😥😍 This is so good! I am sobbing! I still want to see some of that "night" though. AND I REALLY want to see River meet Captain Jack. And 13.
Problem is the doctor could visit Rivers consciousness whenever, so she isn't really dead in the sense. What a profound story line River is.
When you wrote this, he no longer could. They ended that line where her consciousness was still around BEFORE the 12th doctor. The only thing they did with him is show the last date. She faded away long before the 12th doctor. Before the 50th anniversary.
Fictitious Code no thats not true
Well like most fans I didn't really watch all of Peter's episodes so I don't know how Moffit may have screwed up the Library storage facility for River's consciousness but let's note the Doctor basically killed off virtually all of the Time Lords back in the 1990's to give all the life hating flaming Gay drama queens at BBC who actually enjoy that sort of depressing nihilistic rubbish a pointless cheap thrill but brought them all back and then got another twelve regeneration cycles so pragmatically anything is possible in Doctor Who if BBC expects to make a lot more money from doing it than from not doing it. William Hartnell died decades ago but that didn't stop the First Doctor from doing a guest appearance in the 2017 Christmas Special. As an American Indian saying goes, "Once sounded in the ceremony of life, the drumbeat goes on forever."
Kayla actually it is true. the reason her Echo which is what the Doctor calls them hadn’t faded (because it should have faded along time ago and the 11th Doctor admits that it was his fault and he was very sorry!) because the Doctor didn’t say goodbye and let her go properly, when he does finally except that she’s dead and tells her goodbye in his own way (he doesn’t like Endings so he unconsciously kept her echo alive!) she finally fades away with a parting message to the Doctor sort of letting him know Clara was still alive! It’s all explained in The Name Of The Doctor. Rewatch that episode or just their final scene together from it the Doctor explains everything to River when she say’s “it’s hard to leave when you didn’t say goodbye!” So her imprint and all her memories are stored in the library but her echo or Ghost as you call it should have faded but didn’t because the Doctor never truly let her go because he misses her and he doesn’t like goodbyes, she’s his wife and she died because of him in away, and he really does love her even though she thought he didn’t! He’ll always love her her and feel guilty about her death which was shown through the 12th Doctors’s Christmas episodes and last season. He only had two photos ever on his desks Susan his granddaughter and River Song his wife! You saw every time anyone mentioned Rivers name or asked about/who she was he got upset and you could see the guilt he felt! The Doctor promised he would never let anything happen to her parents and he tried to save them a number of times going from the conversation in The Angels Take Manhattan but ended up creating a fixed point when he read Rory and Amy’s headstone. He promised on his life that he would protect River at all costs which is why he kept canceling and putting off taking her to the singing towers because he knew what was coming next but was left with no choice because that’s where the spaceship was going to crash! And the rest I’ve explained in another post about how he managed to save her imprint and all her memories. X
“Goodbye Sweetie.” 😭😭😭😭
And Dr River Song with her beautiful voice and smart ways of saving the Earth and her beloved doctor is worth watching a million times.
Thank you for the response.
Brilliant! River is one of the best characters in Doctor Who.
Thank you!😄
Truly amazing river song is one of the best characters in doctor who
Bardley, well done man! This recently appeared on my YT timeline and had to watch it. The best 29 minutes of YT so far. Thanks for putting this together. Mad props on your editing skills as well. I always looked forward to Doctor Who episodes when River was in them.
Thank you so much, I appreciate it😄
This was very well done, and made it clear why River Song is my fav character from Dr. Who. She is a perfect example of someone who is completely themself and makes no apology for it. She is an inspiration to all us women who feel pressured to conform. Thank you for making this, I completely love it.
Thank you, I’m glad you love it😁
That got me right in the feels. The BBC must bring her back!
I've always hated the fact that they had river say "how have you got a new face? I thought there were rules!" to Capaldi. I know she had a great arc, but it means that she could NEVER have a cameo again, because she hasn't met any doctor after Smith.
Not necessarily, like a comment above suggested, if they wanted to bring her back for a brief 5 second cameo, they could just have her accidentally bump into the current regeneration and apologize before dashing off, with River never realizing who it was but all the memories of the past adventures flooding the Doctor's head.
Thanks for putting this together. I think they could make a series out of the life of River Song, this would be a good template to start with, but create some additional footage to include her adventures sans the Doctor. :D
Thank you and it would be awesome to see a series put together from River’s perspective. Editing the episodes so the timeline is in the right order
Their story makes me cry everytime :'( Eleventh and River were sooooo good together, i hate that it had to end.
Bradley, my my my what class! Outstanding compilation. One of the best i have seen. This is how it's done. I am a huge fan of Alex Kingston and River song is one of my all time favourite fictional characters. Even though I know all my Dr Who, i have just sobbed my self silly, not a dry tissue left in the house. Have just noticed that you have done other compilations. Hope I don't need to start on the loo roll. Well done, good work friend.
Thank you so much😄 I hope you enjoy my other work and you may have to get more tissues just in case😉
lowkey how he says goodbye like he will see her tomorrow absolutely hurts the feels, she is one of my top 5 favorites but ooh my does her story hurt to hear.
“Do you trust this man?”
“I absolutely trust him”
“He’s not some kind of looney, is he?”
(Long pause)
“I absolutely trust him”
Jesus Christ, i posted this 6 months ago?
“you are forgiven always and completely forgiven” gets me every time!!!
Been a Whovian since the late 60's, This is truly one of the best bits of cut-n-splice I've ever seen.
The story arc from start to finish was monumental. To have thought of it, Good, to continue it Better
then to accumulate it over the span of years this took Phenomenal.
Thank you so much😄
BRILLIANT!✨Gets me everytime. 😥
Thank you😀
I was fully crying by the end!! 😭😭
i didn't even expect myself getting emotional over this but frickin hell you caught off guard, i was sobbing by the end
I just reached 1000 likes for this video🎉 So here's a massive THANK YOU for your support on this video I made for the wonderful character River Song😄
Well... damn.
Just HAD to make me cry, didn't they?!
I ♥️ River
😭
I never realised how much more emotional I found rivers death when she was talking and knowing all they’ve been through and him knowing that he would have obviously married her for him to know his name meaning that he will love her. Just I can’t I’m crying so bad
someone is cuttining onions here :'( tears. what an amazing love story.
You'll always be in my ❤️ forever. Thank you, for being such a big part of Dr. Who’s life
"You are always here to me, and I always listen, and I can always see you." What every lover wants to hear.
one thing ive noticed is that when ever river says the doctor does not love her he always proves her wrong
When she said she would suffer more than every living thing....I was simultaneously appalled at the level of selfishness, and completely supportive of her. It was unquestionably selfish but it was real, I can't say I would do or say any different in her place. And that in and of itself humbles me. An impossible situation with an impossible cost.
Every time I see River, in every episode, it makes me cry, knowing what her life means because of her love of the Doctor.
Thank you im going to try and watch the episode in this order
