*Rhys says the 456 came to Earth 44 years ago, meaning that all events which take place in the "Whoniverse" are a year ahead of the real timeline, viz. [[Children of Earth]] is set in [[2010]]. ''It's set in 2009 actually, even still he might just round it off depending on the number of months (e.g. someone who is 14 in three days will still say they are 13), he rounds it off.'' | *Rhys says the 456 came to Earth 44 years ago, meaning that all events which take place in the "Whoniverse" are a year ahead of the real timeline, viz.

**Jack's death by gas (and, in fact, his explosive end in Part One) raises questions about the nature of his immortality. Specifically, if his body can still come to harm, why didn't his body show any signs of dissolving while he was exposed to Stet Radiation in "[[Utopia (TV story)|Utopia]]"? | **Jack's death by gas (and, in fact, his explosive end in Part One) raises questions about the nature of his immortality.
