Theory:Doctor Who television discontinuity and plot holes/The Zygon Invasion

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 Zygon Invasion 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:

• The Doctor is the President of the World here, but nobody really cares or follows his commands.

This isn't an extinction-level event, plus I don't think the Doctor's presidency includes military authority.Or maybe he's been imposed in favor of someone who stays on Earth more often. President of the World Jack Harkness, anyone?

It is a potential global Invasion and UNIT as stated in this episode has command over the military so the President of the World should have as well.

• During the opposite titles scene, how can The Doctor, a middle aged looking man, with a camera phone, openly sit in a children's play park and just watch the kids? Surly the parents/guardians would have taken children else where if there was just a man sat in a park.

Why exactly? We don't know about the local culture where that playground was. At least in my area that's actually quite common.

A strange question. Why wouldn't a middle-aged man openly sit in a playground? Also, almost everyone has a mobile phone, and almost all of them have cameras. Why would parents take their children elsewhere just because someone, middle-aged or not, is sitting there? Lastly, middle-aged people are often parents or grand-parents.

• Why does Kate mispronounce "Zed" as "Zee" when she mentions Z-67 in the episodes 'The Zygon Invasion" and "The Zygon Inversion"?
