*Why would the aliens send information to Earth on how to construct a device that would enable them to take control of their ambassadors when they are supposed to be on a purely diplomatic mission? ''the device does not take control of them it just translates human speach and the enermys thretan to take away their radioactive material which to them is vital if they don't obay.'' | *Why would the aliens send information to Earth on how to construct a device that would enable them to take control of their ambassadors when they are supposed to be on a purely diplomatic mission?

*In episode one, when the video screen retracts, the CSO image stays for several seconds. | |||
*When the spacecraft rotates, the image from the cockpit camera rotates with it (it should be fixed on one point). | |||
*The UNIT soldier who is killed by touching the same barrier as an alien in episode four, is alive and well and back at work in episode six. | |||
*From this story onwards no military personnel ever moves between 'attention' and 'at ease' properly. | |||
*'Variant' is spelt 'varient' on location props. | |||
*Taltalian's accent is French in the studio and English on location. | |||
*Recovery Seven's nose cone changes colour between prop and model shots. | |||
*Quinlan's office safe slips about as the alien tries to open the door. | |||
*And how does the Doctor manage to get the TARDIS console through the doors? | |||
*The screen that the Doctor and Brigadier use to triangulate the signal wobbles when it is touched. | |||
*When the capsule is landing, it is moving across the map of the Atlantic far faster than the announcements indicate. | |||
*The Ambassadors' touch is established as fatal, yet one assaults Reegan twice and he is unharmed. | |||
* Why would the U.N.I.T. guard at the gate open fire on someone that he has no reason to believe hostile just because they didn't halt the first time he said to? | |||
*The Doctor tells Cornish that the extra G-force from a higher proportion of M3 Variant will not bother him and Cornish suggests that that would blow up the rocket. Then Reegan adds the extra M3. The extra G-force does seem to bother the Doctor but the rocket still does not blow up. | |||
*When Reegan is sabotaging the rocket, M3 Variant is mis-spelled M3 Varient. | |||
*Lennox would not be killed so quickly by a radioactive isotope -- no matter how radioactive it was. And why didn't he scream for help or just chuck the thing out the window. | |||
*The Doctor suggests to Cornish that he can use pure M3 Variant to send the Ambassadors back to space since they will not be affected by the extra G-force. Neither he nor Cornish seem too concerned that this might blow these friendly aliens up or send them into orbit around the sun. | |||
