Day 21) The River Song Challenge!!!! 

Next I'm gonna have you all try to guess the order in which I filmed my DW December videos this month based only on my nail color.

People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually - from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint - it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly... timey-wimey... stuff

Thankyou so much for having me jess. Love you babe. 😘😘😘

4 minutes? That's ages. What if I get bored? I need a television, a couple of books. Anyone for chess? Bring me knitting.

.....Why Jess? We were friends! But seriously, I loved being a part of this and helping you out. Even if you killed me with this xD

Amazing! It was really fun to watch it. You are so creative! Your DW-December is absolutely fantastic

Thanks for including me! It was stressful as hell but I loved it 😂 And that opening jingle was something quite special.

Jess you are an evil genius!

My heart was gonna give up

watching you guys all struggle made this so entertaining! XD

That was awesome to watch! So many of my beloved Whovians at once. Thanks , i enjoyed that so much! What a great idea

Damn, I'm going to need a flowchart.

What a wonderfully evil woman you are!!! I laughed way too much watching this! Now, the next challenge for Jess is to make sure that none of her fellow reactors enlist the help of Strax and his grenades to get her back!! Great video, Jess! So much fun to watch, and I can't wait for tomorrow! Cheers!

I had to take a xanex after this

"The silence in the library was the first, no cause that's when she dies" only in Doctor Who 😂

When I first clicked on this video, I did not expect to see Torchwood boy, that was a fun surprise!

the best thing about this is that its only going to get more complicated as you go on

I'd say: 1. A Good Man Goes to War (baby River) 2. The Impossible Astronaut (young River) 3. Day of the Moon (young River) 4. Let's Kill Hitler 5. Closing Time 6. The Wedding of River Song 7. A Good Man Goes to War (adult River) 8. The Impossible Astronaut (adult River) 9. Day of the Moon (adult river) 10. The Pandorica Opens 11. The Big Bang 12. The Time of Angels 13. Flesh and Stone 14. The Wedding of River Song (River who visited Amy at the end of the episode) 15. The Angels Take Manhattan 16. Silence in the Library 17. Forest of the Dead 18. The Name of the Doctor Edit: The adult River from A Good Man Goes to War might be after the events of Flesh and Stone, I forgot her dialogue with Rory about where the Doctor had taken her. Not sure about that one though.

make steven moffatt do this

The challenge would be even more complicated if you include stuff like 'Night and the Doctor'.

I thought it was easy at first, then all the moments of hers flooded back and I was like WTF?!

Not sure which clips are there, but: A Good Man Goes to War (baby) The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (child) Let's Kill Hitler (Mels becomes River) Closing Time/The Wedding of River Song (most of her scenes) A Good Man Goes to War (adult) The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (adult) The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone The Wedding of River Song (garden scenes at the end) The Angels Take Manhattan (and you know what comes next) Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead The Name of the Doctor

I did it with the minisodes included, I'm an expert at River's timeline, that's how much I love her :D

This is most single handed torture of a challenge I ever had to do! I loved it! Great to be apart of it! Loved it Jess! Great video!

someone should show this to Steven Moffatt. I can already hear his evil laugh! :D

What an amazing idea, such fun seeing all these guys Who-ing out.

This is a fantastic video! I don't even want to know the nitpicky headaches you had in editing this, haha!

Lucky for me, i just made a River Timeline for myself a week ago.

This... is... BRILLIANT!!

Haha, that was fun. I'm not sure even Moffat could do it in five minutes!

I used completely different strategy which is easier for me, and that is numbering all pictures and then going through each one of them and placing them in order. Basically not trying to think which comes first but rather 'is it before or after'. I don't know if I'm making any sense.

I love how Dan is the only one who is confident when his timer runs out. Alex definitely remembers the most. You can tell he's rewatched the episodes a lot. Brianna and George are the funniest in this video. Like Dan, I filled in everything one second before the timer ran out. I was pretty confident, but then looked it up and got only 3 wrong! Really fun idea Jess! I love how you added in clips of 8 and 11 complaining about having too much time.

Correct answer is: TIA/DOTM (D) LKH (A,B, THEN C) Wedding (A) TIA/DOTM (B Goes to War (A THEN B) TIA/ DOTM (A THEN C) PANDORICA ANGELS/ FLESH AND STONE WEDDING (B) MANHATTAN LIBRARY NAME

This was a brilliant idea!! I love how you got to inflict so much suffering!! Anyway not being very well right now this felt like a fever dream in my head. That's not a great excuse though because this is tough!! The amount of thought and planning required for this must have been a nightmare!! Thank you to all of those who took part! This was fun.......mostly!!

Absolutely fantastic idea Jess! 👏 So happy you made a River video *-* River's timeline confuses sooo much people 😂 even I had doubts on one of them (and I watched her episodes so many times I know the dialogues ) I'm sending this to a friend. She's going to cry 😂

I got so happy when I saw this! Well done Jess! Keep up the amazing work!! ❤️❤️

Damn, that was a very clever challenge. :D Very well done, even I was stumped. :p

I remember doing a video/trailer version of River's timeline but unfortunately it had to be removed :( It would have been a major help for this quiz.

I completely wobbled In The middle, I'm glad when I watched it most had the same problem 😂😂 awesome video Jess 👍

That was really enjoyably edited. What a bunch of fun. Thanks, Miss

See, Alex gets it: Don´t hate on Sesska! HATE ON MOFFAT! He´s responsable for this wibbly wobbly mess! Still, even though it was a great video: *ARE WE ACTUALLY NOT GETTING THE SOLUTION????* I was expecting to get the right solution presented at the end......

Oh wow. Not Rivers time line. Her episodes time line. I can't believe this...

That was a pretty good idea and initiative, thank you 💛

Best thing ever! And I can't even solve it XD especially in the middle part...

That was so brilliant! Fantastic! I had so much fun watching this video, and hurting my brain trying to complete the challenge beforehand.

I started and thought "this is really easy" so wasn't spending time wisely. Then I noticed the A's and B's in the visual aid and realised I'd screwed up. :p I have an order that I'm semi-confident on but it took more than 5 minutes. 1.) The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (D) 2.) Let's Kill Hitler (A) 3.) Let's Kill Hitler (B) 4.) Let's Kill Hitler (C) 5.) The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (B) 6.) The Wedding of River Song (A) 7.) A Good Man Goes To War (B) 8.) A Good Man Goes To War (A) 9.) The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (A) 10.) The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (C) 11.) The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang 12.) The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone 13.) The Wedding of River Song (B) 14.) The Angels Take Manhattan 15.) Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead 16.) The Name of the Doctor I am confident on the beginning's and end's. I am pretty sure TWORS(B) comes after TTOA/FAS but I'm not 100%. I think TATM is the last time River sees Amy and Rory which would place it there but if not, it'll be around the time of AGMGTW. The only ones that throw me are AGMGTW. I know B has to come before A but is there any indication of where exactly they are in River's timeline? They don't exactly do a catch up. It's solely about the events of that episode... It's at this point of writing that I realise I have AGMGTW(A) and AGMGTW(B) mixed up with TIA/DOTM(A) and TIA/DOTM(C)... Well I'm pretty sure AGMGTW(B) comes before TIA/DOTM(A) and TIA/DOTM(C). ... I'm continuing down a string of self doubt. I'm just going to say that's my answer and now find out how close to the truth I am. Wait, what? There's no answer!? I need to know!! (looks it up) Okay, I'm right. Phew. That was indeed difficult.

I had high hopes for Alex and Rosa. I feel sooooo let down! 😘

Lol so much the moment I saw “river challenge “ I immediately put thoughts to rivers time line her perspectives so happy got it done before she even explained it

LOL! This is priceless! What a brilliant idea! Have they forgiven you yet? ;-)

auburn hair, devastatingly beautiful.....jess is the RANI!!!!!!!!!

Mosttt welcome.

Oh boy here we go. I thought this was gonna be easy. I paused the vid a few mins in and came up with this in 5 mins: Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (D) Let's Kill Hitler (A) Let's Kill Hitler (B) Let's Kill Hitler (C) Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (B) The Wedding of River Song (A) A Good Man Goes to War (A) A Good Man Goes to War (B) Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (A) Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (C) The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone The Wedding of River Song (B) The Angels Take Manhattan Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead The Name of the Doctor No idea about AGMGTW or TWORS (since the latter took place in an alternate timeline) so I threw them in randomly ... now onto the video :)

Heh this was so much fun. I love River, flaws in the writing and all, and could only get the 5-6 on each end in 5 minutes, that middle zone of her timeline is so confusing without some written aid and plenty of time to get it straight.

Loved watching Stephen struggle. Great video, thanks for all your whomas vids xx

So fun to play along 😂

1. The baby sequences (actually the bulk of the episode) of A Good Man Goes To War 2. The little girl sequences of The Impossible Astronaut 3. The little girl sequences of Day of the Moon 4. Let's Kill Hitler 5. Closing Time 6. The bulk of The Wedding of River Song (except River's last scene) 7. The adult River sequences (actually just 2 short scenes at the beginning and end) of A Good Man Goes To War 8. The Impossible Astronaut 9. Day of the Moon 10. The Pandorica Opens 11. The Big Bang 12.

oh dear me (in the 2nd doctors voice) thank you so much for this wonderful interactive video

Fantastic!

That was brilliant. You are a cruel mistress, Jess. (said in K9's voice) x

This timed exam gave me flashbacks to university. I still haven't recovered.

I laughed a lot watching this. Thanks to Jess and everyone who participated. I was all set to just give Liam C extra points points for the alarm tone he used but then I could not believe how many others had the same tone. Those are some fans for sure. : )

Found it 3 years late but who cares I still tried it. Let's just say that me from 5 minutes ago was very arrogant and that a lesson had been learned.

I am hopeless at quizzes, my brain runs into the distance, screaming and waving its little arms in the air at the mere mention of one. I would rather face a Dalek!

Fabulous Level: ACHIEVED!!

There is a great video that has been put together called Timeline of River Song that is beautiful and heartbreaking and a must see. Not saying to react to it, but definitely you should give it a watch because it is very well done.

Fantastic! An amazing idea, and such a gift to see all of my favorite reactors come together in a single video. All of you were good sports to take up the challenge. Jessica, you did a great job editing this. Well done! Can we make something like this an annual thing?

haha sorry I was just laughing through the whole episode. No wait, yes! no! this is 3rd, wait, no! yes! that didn't happen, but it still happened.. lol

Is Wedding (A) the scene with Kavorian or the "look into my eye" scene with the Doctor? I put it #6 because I thought it was the Doctor scene.

That was fun, but incredibly stressful! After 5 minutes I only had 7 answers written down... With enough time to think about each episode i could get more, but probably not all.

I tried to do it and I gave up, 5 minutes wasn't long enough!

My List: 1. The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon D 2. Let's Kill Hitler A 3. Let's Kill Hitler B 4. Let's Kill Hitler C 5. The Impossible Astronaut/ Day of the Moon B 6. The Wedding of River Song A 7. The Pandorica Opens/ The Big Bang 8. The Time of Angels/ Flesh and Stone 9. The Wedding of River Song B 10. The Impossible Astronaut/ Day of the Moon A 11. The Impossible Astronaut/ Day of the Moon C 12. A Good Man Goes to War B 13. A Good Man Goes to War A 14. The Angels Take Manhattan 15. Silence in the Library/ Forest of the Dead 16. Name of the Doctor

I did this so many times over the course of DW... it was too easy for me hahaha. I was like "DEMONS RUN" when they were all "the impossible astronaut" well... remember baby Melody, please!

Wow, Jess has outdone herself with Doctor Who December! Editing this must have been a nightmare but as well throwing in the 8th Doctor Clip, i was buzzing when she first announced this series but wow! she really is blowing me away! Can wait to see her reactions to season 8 too! Also, 16:46 shoulda had a trigger warning for the tenth Doctor

watching this was so fun! I had a go myself and man that was difficult! but half way through I realised I had set my alarm for five minutes but I forgot to press start. damn it

Sesska! Do you have the final answers? I took your test and was so shocked that I didn't know a few of them in terms of order. River is my favorite by far!

Loved the 8th Doctor cut in 😂

This was amazing. Brilliant idea!

I took this River Song challenge and died horribly & I considered myself pretty knowledgeable in Doctor Who too. Hate timed quizzes. Lol

I got stuck in the middle. I knew the beginning and her death.

Good fun :D

I played along. 5 minutes? Impossible!

Here's my guess (under cut): The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (D) Let's Kill Hitler (A) Let's Kill Hitler (B) Let's Kill Hitler (C) The Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon (B) The Wedding of River Song (A) The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone A Good Man Goes to War (A) A Good Man Goes to War (B)

I went Impossible Astronaut D, then - after a couple regenerations - Let's Kill Hitler A, B and C, at the end of which we see The Doctor give her her journal and her decide to become an archeologist; skip to her starting her career and that's when we see her get kidnapped, leading to Impossible Astronaut B, temporarily breaking time leading to Wedding of River Song A, after it's fixed she gets arrested for supposedly killing The Doctor, during which we have Good Man Goes to War B, Pandorica Opens/Big Bang (we know this is after GMGtW B because she says next time he sees her is when he learns who she is) and Time of Angels (we know this is after Pandorica because she says he'll see her there/then next) leading directly to Wedding of River Song B, then Impossible Astronaut A and C (after the adventures she mentions when syncing her journal with the future Doctor before he fakes his death, with dates like the ones we've glimpsed in minisodes happening before and after the episode), then Angels Take Manhattan, then at least 1 more date with The Doctor (featuring Stevie Wonder) followed by Good Man Goes to War A (I'm basing this solely on how she says Rorys name when she first sees him), then Husbands of River Song, then Silence in the Library, then Name of The Doctor.

I tried this for two minutes, then realised I hadn't a clue, so I quit. I'm looking at the visual aid and I didn't even realise that River in A Good Man Goes To War (A) came after (B). I figured River (A) just remembered/knew she was kidnapped as a child and then came back later as River (B) to tell the Doctor.

You always look fabulous!

Still hoping for genesis of the daleks

I thought it would show the answers at the end. I don't know how crap I was now haha 😂

Hah, "challenge." I've done River's timeline numerous times before in my spare time. Took me under a minute ;) But that was an awesome idea, and I had way too much fun watching everyone else suffer XD

The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone 13. The wedding of River song (B) 14. The Angels take Manhatten 15. Silence in the Library/Forest of the dead. 16. Name of the Doctor Definitely got some wrong!
