Some thinks on Doctor Who

kalihaThings I hope get answered in the finale of Doctor Who on Saturday. (Spoilers for up to 5x12)
[x] what is the significance of the duckpond without any ducks. (Other than it being a pond?)
[x] At the end of the first episode Amelia was sat on her suitcase in the garden and there was the sound of the TARDIS. This seems to indicate that he came back although in the episode Amy didn't see him again until she was 19.
[x] Also what did the Doctor tell her when she was seven?
[x] When Rory was sucked into the crack (sob) how come the engagement ring didn't disappear? Was this due to the fact the TARDIS interior is outside normal space-time and therefore not affected by the crack. (Which leads me to thinking, could Rory have been saved had they pulled him into the TARDIS? (He'd have still have been dead, but not forgotten))
[x] The Moff has gone on a lot in the Confidentials about how Doctor Who is a fairytale. Is this season quite literally a fairtale and Amy is our Little Red Riding Hood?
[x] And if it is, does this mean that it will end happily ever after?
[x] When River went nicking Liz Ten's property, where was this royal gallery and why was it so trashed?
[x] I only noticed today that the football shirt the Doctor wore in The Lodger was the number 11. I am so ridiculously unobservant this year.
[x] Although I did notice some very Silurian-looking aliens at the welcoming party for the Doctor at Stonehenge. Shouldn't they be dozing many miles under the earth? I did not seen the weevils. This makes me sad. (See previous point about unobservantness.)
[x] Why does Amy's house have a third floor? It's a very nice set of stairs just to lead up to a loft. (Or attic if you prefer.)
[x] Why does the TARDIS console have what looks just like a radiator bottle from a Ford on it. (And why does it have 100% less IKEA ornaments on it this year?)
[x] Is this whole series caused by the Dream Lord/the Doctor's subconscious. Have they still not actually woken up from the spell the spores put them under?
[x] Why turn Rory into an Auton? (He did look very cute as a Roman though.)
[x] The Doctor has always said that he can't go meddling in the timeline once he is part of it. (When I say always said, both the Ninth and Tenth Doctor's have said it recently and I'm positive it's been brought up in the classic series too.) So why is he happily flitting through his past adventures? (If the whole Coat thing in the forest really is part of the plot and not just a continuity error).
[x] Who is controlling the TARDIS? And why does it not have emergancy escape pods? That seems a real oversight.
[x] OH OH! At the end of the first episode all the little peg Doctors were raggedy in the Tenth Doctor's favourite tie and the brown suit. At the end of this episode those Doctors were mixed in with Doctors in a different outfit.
And I'm done. Please no spoilers for Saturday's episodes in the comments. I'd like not to inadvertantly spoil someone.
