Theory:Doctor Who television discontinuity and plot holes/Fear Her

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 Fear Her 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. 

• When the Doctor eats from a jar of marmalade in Trish's house, he puts one finger in his mouth. The camera cuts to Rose for a second as she warns him off this little faux pas, then back to the Doctor who now has two fingers in his mouth.

He put the other one in between shots.

• The logo for the Olympics is the one used for the bid. The logo for the Olympics itself was released after the episode.

Presumably in the Doctor Who universe the original logo was retained; it's doubtful that in 2012 in the real world that anyone resembling the Doctor will light the flame, either.

• Despite the fact that this episode is set in Stratford in 2012, in several scenes Central Trains liveries trains are seen passing by, which have never operated through Stratford (but do operate through Cardiff, around where the episode was filmed). Indeed, Central Trains ceased to exist in 2007, replaced by three new operators.

Speculatively, it is possible that the company has been reformed and are operating in Stratford; a lot can happen in 5 years, especially in business. Alternatively the rolling stock may have been transferred to a company operating in Stratford and not yet repainted in the new company colours; some things are very slow in the rail industry.

• What happened to Chloe's father affter the end of this episode?

The link may have been broken after Chloe effectivly defeated her father.

• How come the Doctor wasn't shot on sight by security for even approaching the Olympic torch so closely, let alone picking it up?
