*Apparently Martha is the first person since "Mr. Smith" was admitted to Royal Hope the day before to do so much as listen to his heart, or check his pulse, blood pressure or body temperature, or run a blood test, as any of those should have alerted medical personnel to his [[Gallifreyan physiology|physical differences]]. And if so, what exactly is on the chart that Mr. Stoker chided her for not consulting?''(Time Lords have been shown to have excellent control over thier bodies, so it's not unfeasible he was able to pass at least some of his tests on that merit)'' | *Apparently Martha is the first person since "Mr. Smith" was admitted to Royal Hope the day before to do so much as listen to his heart, or check his pulse, blood pressure or body temperature, or run a blood test, as any of those should have alerted medical personnel to his [[Gallifreyan physiology|physical differences]].

* | *Why is Mr Stoker called Mr rather than Dr''? ''''I''n UK hospitals, only surgeons go by the title Mr, and yet Stoker is clearly depicted as a non-surgical consultant. ''We don't know that for sure he could be working as a locum on that ward'' | ||
* | *The scene in the X-Ray room appears to break a number of laws of Physics. Firstly, where does the power come from to increase the radiation by 5000%?'' [Perhaps it's from the sonic screwdriver's power supply.] ''Secondly, the Doctor absorbing all the radiation and expelling it into his show without damaging the shoe or making it dangerously radioactive is rather implausible,'' they may not be earth made and therefore able to withstand damage. The Doctor also stated he had absorbed them all and it was completly harmless now.'' | ||
* | *The Plasmavore turning the MRI scanner into a weapon doesn't work very well. Firstly, a magnetic pulse might disrupt electronic devices, but it shouldn't kill a person. And a strength of 50,000 Tesla would have no noticeable effect at a distance of 250,000 miles. It certainly wouldn't kill half the Earth's population. | ||
* | *Why doesn't the blood loss cause the Doctor to die or regenerate?'' the Doctor has survived a heart attack, being struck by lightning and even the vaccum of space his Gallifreyan pyshiology probably helps he survive losing his blood. Remember as part of his physiology he has a two hearts - perhaps two circulatory systems and only one of them was completly drained.'' | ||
* | *The Royal Hope Hospital is practically next to the spot the ship crashed in Aliens of London, and yet that story claimed that the nearest hospital was actually the Albion hospital. ''London is a big place and the Albion hospital may have been the closest and the Royal Hope could be one nearby. There are lots of hospitals in London that are fairly close together.'' | ||
