Still wondering about the Ducks? I guess it’s time to reveal the truth. Amy ate them! :eek: No kidding. Chinese crispy duck with plum sauce & pancakes are her favorite meal. Watch for yourself as the Doctor and Companion dine on junior Masterchef. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vcac\_oK\_G80](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vcac_oK_G80) ---

Listen to me, Amy, whatever you do, _don’t_ feed them after midnight! ---

Actually, the really creepy truth about why the ducks were missing is… they were inside the Dalek armour, piloting the Daleks (Duckleks?) ---

Note he uses the words “who are,” not “what is.” > 2. **Who is River Song**? This means we’re going to learn _something_ more about her, but I wouldn’t be surprised if some questions are never answered. Y’know I happened to be skimming through this thread and something occurred to me that might just be a coincidence, or not. I haven’t seen this floated anywhere else on the internetz, so that I thought I’d toss it out there. Anyway… River Song first met the Doctor in an episode called “ **Silence** in the Library.” She also says that sometime in the Doctor’s future she murders a man, and it is subtly implied that it may be the Doctor. Could it be that River IS “the Silence”? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/doctor-who-series-five-uk-pace-thread-edited-title/534851.md?page=47)
