Clara - Speculation... spoilers, sweetie!

I haven't seen The Bells of St John yet... I've been at the hospital all day... the re-run comes on in 20 minutes at 11pm ET. I'm just watching The Snowmen now... so I don't know how much has been revealed about Clara in the new ep...

...BUT...

I still think she's River Song... here's the main reason why...

...in a season six episode, River said something about how she fell in love with the Doctor - the man who came (or fell, or something) "out of the clouds"... which is exactly what he does in The Snowmen.

...that plus she has habit of dying and then coming back... leads me to believe she's a pre-River Song Melody Pond... before she gave up her regenerative powers, that is...

I thought it was River Song that Clara was running through the graveyard with at the end of the Christmas special.

I briefly thought maybe she was Romanadvoratrelunda, but not anymore.

I'm re-evaluating my RS hypothesis, just on the grounds that she has no recollection of her previous life... unless, of course, this wifi story actually happened (from her point of view) *before* the Christmas Special and/or Asylum of the Daleks....

...that being the case, thank you Moffat for seriously messing with my head.

He is really good at that.

I thought it was interesting that they showed how she got her mad computer hacking skills that she used in Asylum of the Daleks. But how does she retain that knowledge if she doesn't retain memories of her previous incarnations?

Also, will any of the Claras ever live past age 30? :laugh:

Good point, Collegiategirl... hadn't thought of that... the hacking skills, I mean
