....why do I not have an adequate gif of Ten just asking "WHAT?" over and over? Because I feel that would be more appropriate than any reaction I could possibly give right now.

As I said to the Willows on Twitter I don't believe it for several reasons.

1: I wouldn't put it past Moff to leak a fake title just to watch us all weep. I know I would.

And

2: It's been almost proved that River is....that. So unless the Doctor is being a very naughty boy. I don't believe it.

Re: 2

Well, he did marry Marilyn that one time...

It might not have been a real chapel though. As the Doctor himself pointed out.

Not sure if that counts.

Elizabeth I on the other hand.

It's been rumoured to be just that via spoilers for a while from some reliable sources so yeah, either it's an elaborate foiler courtesy Unca Neil and the Moff (which I wouldn't put past either of them) OR it's the real deal.

Remember one of the lines in the Big Brilliant Book was that the Doctor would do this twice. One happened in A Christmas Carol. There's a second to go. And who's to say it *isn't* River?

Why did I click on that when I'm in a room full of people? WHY!?!?

I may have to step out of the room for a moment...

Hmmm so it looks like the recent spoiler-rumours regarding this one are true.

I'm not fussed (and don't care if it's literal or not), but given the last time we had an episode with a similar title, the subject of said title was far different than what the title made it seem to be. (Hopefully that makes sense -- am trying to be as unspoilery as possible).

Ahaha, no I know exactly what you're talking about - and I think it will be something similar seeing as Alex is not in this episode...

As pointed out above, the Brilliant Book said something about it happening twice. Once was Marilyn, so there's one to go. Or it could be an old one that no one's considering (here). We don't know who/what got left behind on Gallifrey when the Old Geezer decided to nick the TARDIS and run off. ;)

That was my immediate assumption--explore the Doc's past a bit.

Moff's all over marriage as a theme. I'm almost . . . not surprised at the title?
