Five Years of Song

From the BBC's Doctor Who site:

River Song made her first appearance five years ago today, leading an expedition to The Library where she found the Vashta Nerada, Donna Noble… and the Doctor. Although he didn’t have a clue who this charismatic archaeologist was, she certainly knew him, recalling days he had yet to live with an affection that indicated they would become more than just traveling companions.

Go here for more (their favourite quotes, a new gallery, a quiz etc.): Happy Anniversary River Song!

I shall celebrate with macros from Texts From the TARDIS. And I'm keeping them more-or-less worksafe! This one might be my favourite, but there's plenty more below the cut...

And finally:

Plus a vid to tie in with the theme:



OH MY PONDS THERE WILL NEVER BE ANYONE LIKE YOU!


To finish (for now) my favourite River vid. (Well one of them. V. different from the macros, needless to say...) It's S4/5, but one that has held up beautifully:

LOOOL those are so perfect. I love "badassery is carried on the X chromosome," "we're going to make horrible babies," and "inappropriateness rainbow."

This is great! Those are so River. And the River video is amazing.

Have you seen this ?

I can't be coherant about how much I love River. I don't want her to leave the show but if she has, The Name of the Doctor was a perfect way to leave!

Love the text on these images and woah that last vid! I mean the only episode of River's that I didn't really enjoy was Let's Kill Hitler so she did well episode wise with me.

*Sniffs* Just rewatched the end of the s7 finale. "Alright. How?"
"Spoilers."
"Goodbye...sweetie."

Oh god- I'm laughing so hard at some of those images you've picked. xD

Here's a link to probably one of my most favorite fanarts done of River.

LOL, thanks so much for sharing all this! One of my favorite characters.

Rivvvaaaaahhh.

*gigglesnort* @ the Blackberry one, and also "if God is watching."

Though I have a feeling that this will forever be my favorite:

My favourite River vid is one you rec'd: the world is not enough, from the end of s6.

[identity profile] urb-banal.livejournal.com 2013-06-01 11:05 am (UTC)(link)
This vid is SO much fun! I am so glad I caught this. Thanks for posting!

You just have to love River. She is having too much fun.

River *is* Moffat era Who... (I mean that quite literally.)

And oh, I do adore that vid. Am thrilled to bits that it still holds up!)

I could spend forever on that Tumblr. And I didn't even add all the really rude ones. *g*

Aren't they just her in a nutshell? The fact that she fits 'Texts from Last Night' never stops thrilling me - Doctor Who is a family show after all! How does Moffat do it?

And the vid I will never tire of...

This. It was beautiful and respectful of everything. <3

Love the text on these images and woah that last vid!
I've loved it for YEARS!

I mean the only episode of River's that I didn't really enjoy was Let's Kill Hitler so she did well episode wise with me.
LKH is crack on a stick. I can't not like it! ;)

And the finale just killed me.

What are we going to DO if she's really gone? *curls up into ball*

And I'd forgotten about the flamethrower one! Thank you! <3 <3 <3

Oooooh yes. I helped beta it, and it's probably the best one out there.

This one is older though, and one of the few that's held up, now we know who she is.

Moffat is too clever for his own good...

What is amazing is how fitting it still is after such a long time! And the music... You are quite the vid pimp master!
