Discontinuity, Plot Holes, Errors
- With Torchwood gone, who is keeping the rift in check? Gwen's still around - she may build a new team. UNIT seem to know Torchwood, and perhaps the purpose of their location, they could manage the rift. However, nobody's said anyone is watching it.
- With Day Five being set on a Saturday (if the newspaper Ianto picked up is anything to go by), then why are the children at school? Obviously the government told them to but why would they go? Wasn't the paper picked up at the end of Day two? It could be next day's paper being delivered early - making day 5 Friday
- What became of the fabled Tardis Captain Jack was growing, if the concept was true?
- Did the pterodactyl die?
- Did the weevil die?
- Why didn't the Doctor turn up?
