10 Doctor Who Moments You're Missing From Expanded Media
10. Telling Brian Williams The Truth
Kicking off with P.S., a short animated webcast, which showed the fans what happened to Brian Williams (Rory's dad) after the Angels Take Manhattan. To recap, in the Power of Three, Brian voices concerns to the Doctor about the lifestyle of Amy and Rory, and questions what happens to those who travel with him. So with the couples fate decided in the Series 7A finale, what happens to poor Brian?
In the unshot scene, Brian is visited by Anthony, who finds him at Amy and Rory's house, watering the plants, and delivers a letter. The letter, from Rory, explains how that the letter was arranged to be delivered one week after they left in the TARDIS after the cube incident, and that the couple are alive, but stuck living their lives in New York, fifty years before Rory was even born.
The heart wrenching scene explains how much Rory loves his dad, the life Rory and Amy get to live, that he's sorry, and that the mysterious Anthony is actually Brian's grandson. After the series 7 opener revealed that Amy cannot have children, it is nice for fans to learn that at least the pair got a family in the end by adopting, whilst stuck in the past.
Whilst not a groundbreaking moment, this quiet and intimate scene beautifully rounds off the end of Series 7A, and the conclusion of Amy and Rory's story. You can watch this short webcast for yourself below.
