I picked up on it watching it the second time.
When Tom Baker walks in, , Matt Smith is contemplating becoming a curator - where Tom Baker Enters and says
"you will"
Matt Smith then says "I never forget a face"
To which Tom Baker replies that he does re-visit some old favourites.
Tom Baker is the future Dr Who in that episode, and he prompts Matt Smith to restore Gallifrey. Freezing Gallifrey in a moment of time apparently worked.
He is the same Dr but from the future. Sort of like during the movie how the forst Dr recognises a problem, sets the thought in motion, and the next two Doctors suddenly know the answers. Rather paradoxical.
I don't care if I cannot always follow it, it is still lots of fun.
