Alex Kingston who plays Proffesor River Song in Doctor Who has revealed that she didn't expect an ongoing role after appearing in 'Silence in the Library'/'Forest of Death'.
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, she said, that she didn't know that she would play an important role in Series 6 of Doctor Who:
"When I first did Doctor Who with David Tennant, I wasn't expecting that at all," she admitted. "As far as I was concerned, it was just a two-episode story arc with me being held forever in a computer, or whatever. But Steven always intended that she would come back."
The actress also revealed that her favourite aspect of portraying the professor, whose identity is shrouded in ambiguity, is that the various incarnations of The Doctor never meet River in chronological order.
"The really exciting journey for me, and for Steven, is backtracking. The characters keep missing each other," Kingston added. "She's like The Time Traveller's Wife. In this particular season, and certainly in the first two episodes, what you see is her knowing that she's on the brink of the moment where the Doctor doesn't know any more who she is. And I think that's just tragic, really."

Doctor Who Series 6 Spoilers: Omega 2
Sorry for the lack of posting, i seem to be one of these People who can catch Flu like *snap*, Anyway, i came across this and have linked several pieces together:


Also if you look very closely in the Bizantium pod where River had the clip of the angel this symbol was also theyre too. My theory is that these are linked, but my main interest is that the new symbol spotted on set is Meaning Omega (as the symbol shown is the greek symbol for Omega) and the 2 lines on the image meaning 2nd, (2nd regeneration), in summary these must be linked.
Does this mean the Clericks are back?
Is river Song Omega 2?
Are they linked or just a coincidence (Theyre's no such thing in Doctor Who, Unless your busy)
What ever you do, keep an eye out for Omega Symbol In series 6!
This Was In the Bizantium: This Was Spotted On Set: LINK
