It wasn't a breaking of the rules, more of a slight bend, or perhaps it was a test, but it didn't look like it. Pompeii was a fixed point because of the eruption, maybe the stories of it came from the people he saved.
If I don't make sense, sorry, I always get confused with chaos theory in time-lines. |
No, that makes perfect sense, because he wouldn't have picked Donna up unless he needed her to shout at him and convince him to save them....and so on,
ad infinitum..(that's Celtic, you see..

Changing the subject hurriedly before he gets bogged down into free-will v determinism...why did the TARDIS land 125 miles from where the Doctor thought they were landing? Are we going back to the lack-of-fine-control days, when the Doctor was as surprised as anyone when he opened the door?
