In the 11th doctor's 1st series there is a story arc involving cracks appearing across the universe and removing people from history. However I don't understand, in some examples people are removed from history (the troops from the Byzantium and Rory), however in other places beings appear to be able to enter and exit the cracks at will (Prizoner Zero and the Doctor when checking for debris inside the crack). Is there any opinion on why the cracks have different effects on different people? |

The general suggestion (at least as far as The Doctor is concerned) is that as a creature of time he is able to control his contact with the effects of the crack. He has to give himself over to it willingly before it consumes him. In the 11th season, the nature of the crack is said to not be fully understood and will be effected by the "Great Unasked Question" of season 12. It is possible that the Silence and the race that Prisoner Zero is from are involved in this greater issue and can transcend the effects of the crack. We do see that once inside the crack, the Doctor has some general control as he steps backwards and 'unwinds' through his own history. |
