Doctor Who fans: Is River Song actually the Rani?

There was a hint in the last season that something was odd about River Song when she told her probation officers that the Doctor wouldn't help her if she knew who she was and the closing credits of the recent Christmas special shows us the interior of another TARDIS. I know it's only speculation but are we going to find out that River Song is really the Rani who manged to avoid the Time War?

    I missed the teaser at the end of the ep. Was it a different TARDIS or the TARDIS redecorated?
    According to Wiki, on River Song: "She proves herself to be more adept at flying the TARDIS than he is and reveals to him that she is imprisoned for killing "the best man she had ever known". " Consistent with her being the Rani? Dunno, but looking forward to finding out.

    That... would be an interesting twist.

    I know I'M waiting for The Doctor to find his granddaughter Susan and apologize for being an asshole by stranding her in the middle of a fricken' guerrilla war. She's going to live approximately forever, Right? (Unless she gets shot and killed 13 times which could prove to be both inconvenient AND painful) She's going to outlive the boy she met for three days and had a crush on... or possibly get hunted down and killed in the Time War (might have already happened, but The Doctor still had 50 years to pop by and say "hello").

    I hoped that the mysterious lady a season ago was Susan, but no, the director said it was *his mother*. HIS MOTHER? ARE YOU SERIOUS?!

    Bring back Susan. The show was awesome when Romana was on board. Multiple Timelords FTW.
