Story notes
- Dialogue in the episode establishes that Ianto used to go to the Electro with his father. This is completely consistent with both the rest of the episode and other stories. However, the Torchwood webiste claims that the Electro closed in 1977 and didn't open for thirty years. Since we now know that Ianto Jones was born in 1983, Ianto's statement is seemingly impossible — if this wiki allowed Torchwood website as a valid source in this case. Even so, those who accessed the website immediately after broadcast wouldn't have noticed a problem, since Ianto's birth year wasn't established until Fragments, first broadcast a few weeks later.

Continuity
If you'd like to talk about narrative problems with this story — like plot holes and things that seem to contradict other stories — please go to this episode's discontinuity discussion.
- The Ghostmaker realises Owen has no breath, as he is dead and his respiratory system has ceased functioning. He was killed in Reset but was revived in Dead Man Walking.
- Jack Harkness was working on behalf of an (as-yet) unidentified organisation in the 1920s when he was assigned to infiltrate a travelling circus in order to investigate the Night Travellers. Although he never encountered them, by coincidence film footage of him got mixed in with footage of the Night Travellers.
- This episode's closing credits gave audiences their first notion that perhaps Gwen remained a Cooper after marriage. Audiences would have to wait a while for narrative confirmation, however. It wasn't untilTorchwood: Miracle Day that dialogue with British officials unambiguously established that Gwen never officially took the Williams surname.
DVD releases
