* If these events take place after [[Journey's End]] then how would the Doctor have his blue suit if he gave it to the [[Clone Doctor]]? '' Judging by the surreal nature of the mini episode, including conducting the orchestra during the Proms, it seems that this segment doesn't take place in any continuity.'' | * If these events take place after [[Journey's End]] then how would the Doctor have his blue suit if he gave it to the [[Clone Doctor]]?

That's assuming rather a lot about the blue suit. We have absolutely no idea, at this point, whether there's only one. We won't know until later in 2009, at the very earliest, whether that was the ''only'' blue suit. However, reason would suggest, given that this was filmed not just after ''Journey's End'', but also the upcoming 2008 Christmas Special, that we could potentially discover he has more than one blue suit. We really can't call this a discontinuity until Tennant regenerates. Even then, I think you'd have a hard time making a convincing case that he definitively had no other blue suit but the one that the meta-crisis Doctor took to Pete's World.

* My original rationale was better. I simply stated that there's nothing in the mini-episode to suggest when it occurs in the Doctor's timeline. It could occur 5 minutes after Attack of the Graske, or between Runaway Bride/Smith and Jones or between Voyage of the Damned/Partners in Crime. What I didn't note (but have since found out) is that this was filmed a month after the 2008 Christmas Special; for all we know he could be wearing a blue suit in that one, too.
