^The Doctor can't really change events he already knows will happen. He can play around with the outcome, but not the nitty gritty details of reality. Especially for events he himself has already witnessed.
That being said, what a damn fun episode. I especially loved the dichotomy shown between the Doctor, the children's father, and the mad scientist as they all, for various reasons, have cut themselves off from the world around them, and all to horrific effect. Additionally, Matt Smith was in fine form and Jenna-Louise Coleman was able to keep up with his kinetic energy very well. Can't wait to see how they will work together in the season proper. (I will admit to being a little upset that a charactet from the past didn't get to be the new companion; it's been quite awhile now since a companion from a different timeline has been focused on).
