Discontinuity, Plot Holes and Errors
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. This need not be a whole year ahead of broadcast - it can easily be late 2009.
Continuity
- Jack dies twice in this episode. He was shot by Clem at the beginning of the episode. He also inhaled the virus released by the 456.
DVD releases
- This Episode will be released on DVD along with the rest of Children of Earth on the 13th of July.
