Theory:Doctor Who television discontinuity and plot holes/The Ghost Monument

You are exploring the Discontinuity Index, a place where any details or rumours about unreleased stories are forbidden.
Please discuss only those whole stories which have already been released, and obey our spoiler policy.

This page is for discussing the ways in which The Ghost Monument doesn't fit well with other DWU narratives. You can also talk about the plot holes that render its own, internal narrative confusing.

Remember, this is a forum, so civil discussion is encouraged. However, please do not sign your posts. Also, keep all posts about the same continuity error under the same bullet point. You can add a new point by typing:

* This is point one.
::This is a counter-argument to point one.
:::This is a counter-argument to the counter-argument above
* This is point two.
::Explanation of point two.
::Further discussion and query of point two.

... and so on. 

• The Doctor lends Graham her sunglasses, claiming she got them from Pythagoras. However, she said she lost all her belongings when falling from the TARDIS in Twice Upon a Time. Therefore, how can they be Pythagoras'? The Doctor lying again?

Perhaps they somehow found there way into the charity shop the Doctor got her clothes in, she found them, recognised them as belonging to either Pythagoras or Audrey Hepburn when she met them and bought them as well.

The line is that they are 'like' an old pair of The Doctor's. Perhaps she picked them up at the charity shop because they reminded her of the ones she got from Audrey Hepburn or Pythagoras.

• The Doctor says the atmosphere is toxic, yet everyone breathes it without any ill effects.

Something to do with the implants from the ships’ medi-pods, perhaps? It would make sense if they knew they were going to be landing there.

She did say they'd be dead within one rotation - maybe it just kills you slowly with the effects not becoming apparent for a while?
