* Even though it is just a small space shuttle Jenny seems surprisingly confident that she can travel the entire Universe with it. ''She is a Time Lord and it is uncertain how much time has passed since she died and when she came back to life. She could improve the shuttle as she goes and who knows what the colonists have done to the shuttles since they realised who they really were. Due to her Time Lord-ness (I don't know) she could be instinctively adept at piloting vehicles. this is reminiscent in the doctor's capability in dealing with foreign technologies (although this is all but non-existent in [[Utopia]].

*The Doctor refers to the method of Jenny's creation as "not what (he calls) natural parentage". This is somewhat ironic, given that he was created [[loom|in much the same way]]. However, this is not really a discrepancy as the use of the Looms was necessitated by the [[Pythia]]'s curse, and that Gallifreyans would naturally reproduce sexually. ''By showing a young Master with the appearance of a child in ''[[The Sound of Drums]]'', the current production team may have shown that they do not consider the Looms to exist in official continuity. How this would tie in with the on-screen reference to the [[Cartmel Masterplan]] in ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks]]'' (where the Doctor implies that he was present at the creation of the [[Hand of Omega]]) would therefore be a new mystery in itself.''

* The Doctor has killed several times before, why does he disapprove of Jenny's killing? ''Probably because he has seen the effects that war and violence have and doesn't agree with it any more. He seems slightly ashamed of what he had to do. also what father wants his daughter picking up his bad habites. If memory serves, he only killed when absolutely necessary, even going as far to spare his enemies death in "[[Family of Blood]]".
