Well we know this is not the end of the series because there was a confirmed signing with Matt Smith of a season 7. Sadly it also has been confirmed that the season 7 will be delayed as it is reported at io9.com. According to the article “Wayne Clarke, confirmed via twitter that “Danny Cohen says there won’t be a full series of Doctor Who in 2012, but a special run for the anniversary in 2013.” Most likely this means that there will be some specials for 2012 or just a handful of episodes . But you can bet that in 2013 when the 50th anniversary celebration of Dr Who arrives there will be some great episodes and hopefully appearances by past Dr.s. Let me go out on a limb and think (more like pray) that maybe the past Dr’s save the present Dr ????? That would be a good plot if they hold steady to River killing the Dr off. Yep I am fan and this is just a whimsical speculation of what may be in store.
As for the season finale it looks like (and any one who has ever watched the last two seasons should of guessed) that River Song is the Impossible Astronaut . One thing that I keep thinking of is that she is also the future 1 eyed patch lady. It sounds crazy but being a fan you try to figure out plot arcs and I think a wild one would be that she somehow either hates the Dr in the future enough to have her younger self turn against him or makes sure that a prophecy of some kind happens. Who knows maybe to get the Dr thinking about being peaceful again. Just a thought. Well here are two videos of the upcoming episodes one is the trailer and the other is a short prequel of the season finale.

Episode 13: The Wedding of River Song
Written by Steven Moffat
The big finale! This one remains shrouded in mystery but Karen Gillan has promised us that the series will contain ‘possibly the biggest twist so far’… Is it possible that this is the adventure that delivers it? Steven Moffat penned last year’s incredible finale but it’s probable that this adventure will conclude the series with a bigger bang than ever!

Of course I’m probably way off but what do I know?
I think that would be brilliant. I had a similar thought when I saw the Dr’s Wife episode. It would be great to see a prequel of sorts on the Dr’s origin . The hint that Moffat gave when the Tardis took human form left me wanting more story line when she said “I chose you”. I kind of imagine if he went in that direction it would be more like a memory sequence or series of memory sequences of the Drs past. Sort of a reflection on how he came to this point in life.
