* If any mention of the Doctor or the TARDIS would cause the Time Lord consciousness within Donna to reawaken and burn up her mind, isn't the Doctor taking a tremendous risk by letting Donna see him in the Nobles' house? ''Maybe The Doctor wishes to test the effectiveness of the memory wipe and also determine whether there are any negative effects on her. According to [[Phil Collinson]] and [[Julie Gardner]] in the commentary podcast, a scene filmed but cut showed Donna reacting to the sound of the TARDIS dematerializing and then dismissing it.'' | * If any mention of the Doctor or the TARDIS would cause the Time Lord consciousness within Donna to reawaken and burn up her mind, isn't the Doctor taking a tremendous risk by letting Donna see him in the Nobles' house?

* If Mickey Smith was allowed to stay on the normal Earth, why did Rose and Jackie have to go back? After all, the Doctor could have brought Pete back as well, and their child. ''The Doctor wanted to keep the second Doctor sealed off in the parallel world where he couldn't cause any trouble, and wanted Rose to look after him. The episode also indicates that there is only a limited amount of time for the TARDIS to remain on Pete's World, not enough time to round everyone up. Also, both Pete and the young son were born on Pete's World; it wouldn't have been fair to force them to leave their homeworld. There is no indication of Jackie requesting to stay on her original world.'' | * If Mickey Smith was allowed to stay on the normal Earth, why did Rose and Jackie have to go back?

* With all of her memories since The Runaway Bride erased, wouldn't Donna realise that she has lost about a year and a half of of her life, and shouldn't she think it's her wedding day? | * With all of her memories since The Runaway Bride erased, wouldn't Donna realise that she has lost about a year and a half of of her life, and shouldn't she think it's her wedding day? But the Doctor states that he erased memories of him and the TARDIS, meaning that he never erased 2 full years of her life. | ||
*If the [[Osterhagen key]] and its associated doomsday device had been around for years, why wasn't it activated during the events of ''[[Doomsday]]'' or, more to the point, [[The Year That Never Was]] ([[DW]]: ''[[Last of the Time Lords]]'')? ''The Master used the archangel network to crush resistance. It's also probable that as the Master not only became Prime Minister, but also was involved with the top-secret weapon deployed against the [[Sycorax]], that he was aware of the Key and took steps to prevent its use. Also with the Doctor around in Doomsday, they didn't need to use the key, as they would only need a last resort when the Doctor was completely helpless and couldn't stop it (it's a last resort weapon.) | *If the [[Osterhagen key]] and its associated doomsday device had been around for years, why wasn't it activated during the events of ''[[Doomsday]]'' or, more to the point, [[The Year That Never Was]] ([[DW]]: ''[[Last of the Time Lords]]'')?
