Discontinuity, Plot Holes, Errors

  • There is no indication of where this story fits in with The Stolen Earth / Journey's End - no references to the Daleks or Davros are made, and Mr Smith's reset is treated as having happened recently. It is possible that the phone transmission Mr Smith carried out in the episode damaged him which required him to reboot again.
  • Maria was briefly mentioned in The Stolen Earth by Luke as being on holiday in Cornwall.
  • To add further confusion to where this story lies in relation to DW:The Stolen Earth / Journeys End, Chrissie Jackson is incredulous about the existence of aliens. Which she wouldn't be after experiencing the Daleks pulling Earth across the universe.As in Doomsday the Government probably made a cover story for this event. But a BBC News report in Journey's End broadcasted worldwide, the fact that Earth had returned to its original position after being moved. (Yet this didn't mention aliens)
