I have one issue with the way the 50th changed things, and that is that The Moment didn't just burn Gallifrey, it sealed it in fire within the void or a pocket. The way it was described by Tennant was that there were not just Time Lords in there, but many creatures of a less pleasant nature as well. If the planet returns these things come back to reality as well, along with the high council who voted almost unanimously to use the final sanction and The Master, who will be preserved in his rage toward his people over his suffering.
Smith acted all giddy about finding Gallifrey, but these things will all have been sealed away with it if there is to be any consistency so how is he not considering this?
My only explanation is that Tennant is the man who regrets and Smith is the man who forgets, but I would find that insanely flimsy and he's leaving the show anyway so I'm not sure whether to think they are just glossing over things or if they are building to something, but either way it puts the legitimacy of the 50th on very thin ice because it seems as though Moffat decided that instead of bringing The Moment as it had been established he'd rather just ignore a lot to do good thing with it.
I loved the 50th, but this bothers me. Thoughts? Rationalizations? Creepy PMs?
