A War With Who

Hello. Steven Moffat (once again) has dropped more hints on Series Six. The episode in question this time is the first episode of the extremely huge cliffhanger in the middle of the series. As usual, these comments sound quite cryptic and technical. But anyway, let's take a look at them:

"If you take someone like the Doctor and really piss him off, if you set yourself up to go to war with the Doctor, what would happen? Obviously you’d lose, it would be a massive, crushing defeat, but what side of the Doctor does it bring out? He’s actually quite capable of being really unpleasant to people. Of course he is. He’s a man like anyone else. If you treated Amy with extraordinary cruelty, how long would you live after that?”
Is the Doctor's 'Dream Lord'' side revealed in this episode?
 
Steven Moffat also said that the Doctor has recently become 'famous'. He states that he would like the Doctor to lose this 'fame':
 
“There’s an ongoing thing that the Doctor has become far more famous than he ever intended to be. Well, you would, if you’d done all those things in one lifetime. My God, people would start to notice you. You would be some incredible legend. We’ve started to play with this idea – which I remember Russell [T Davies] was so keen to avoid in the first series – with Chris Eccleston – of the Doctor being this great and famous hero, even though that’s not what he intended to be. He never wanted to be that. But you can’t avoid it."
What will the Doctor do when he realises he's famous? And who will make the Doctor so mad?

“If the Doctor is dealing with life forms that he’s defeated on multiple occasions, it’s not like they haven’t noticed. It’s not like they haven’t written it down. You are going to be able to stand up at Stonehenge and say ‘Who’s first? Look at the score sheet, and take your best shot.’ It’s going to happen. At the same time, he can’t keep doing that. It could be quite damaging for the show. So it’s something that I’m bring to a head, and kind of ending.”
A kind of ending? What ending?

Quite confusing at points, right? Well, we'll see what all of this means when we watch the episode...
