Rumours

  • The poison sky may refer to the way the Sontarans are taking over the earth.This is false; it refers to the way the ATMOS gas in engulfing the sky, thus the Poison Sky
  • The Sontarans will clone Martha Jones, evidence from the trailers show Martha emerging from a green vat of water, and in The Sontaran Strategem preview a tank of the same green water can be seen as a cloning tank also in the cinema trailer Martha is seen covered in green slime. This has now been confirmed as true, but happened in the previous episode
  • The Sontarans cannot breath are atmosphere because of global warming.
  • A Rutan army will appear in flashback.
  • Details of the Brigadier's whereabouts are revealed.
  • The Sontarans steal the TARDIS.
  • UNIT will launch a nuclear strike. This is highly likely as the trailer for this episode is set around a countdown at [one of [UNIT|UNIT's]] bases. Also during the trailer Staal states that: "the planet is going nuclear".
  • The Valiant will be put to good use by Colonel Mace.
  • Donna will kill a Sontaran by the Probic Vent.
