*It takes much longer for Jack to revive, he would normally revive after 5 or 10 minutes but after the 456 killed him there was enough time to move him and cover him up, which must have taken at least an hour with all of the other bodies. ''Jack's time to come back varies, usually with how long it takes him to die. For example at the end of series 1 he stood beneath Abaddon for a while before dying. In this he was in the poisonous gas for a while and therefore it took him longer to come back. It is also possible that he could not revive until all or most of the virus in his system had faded away. Alternatively he may have come to life during transport of his body, and "played dead" until Gwen arrived. There's no real reason for him to have done so, however.'' | *It takes much longer for Jack to revive, he would normally revive after 5 or 10 minutes but after the 456 killed him there was enough time to move him and cover him up, which must have taken at least an hour with all of the other bodies.

*Jack's death by gas (and, in fact, his explosive end in Part One) raises questions about the nature of his immortality. Specifically, if his body can still come to harm, why didn't his body show any signs of dissolving while he was exposed to Stet Radiation in "[[Utopia (TV story)|Utopia]]"? ''Maybe because you die from radiation before you dissolve from it so | *Jack's death by gas (and, in fact, his explosive end in Part One) raises questions about the nature of his immortality.

*Where on earth could [[Martha Jones]] be on honeymoon that she did not notice all this and phone the Doctor? ''She may have believed that the Doctor was already solving the problem, eg, until she hears how it was Jack who defeated the 456, she may have been under the impression that the Doctor was behind it.'' | *Where on earth could [[Martha Jones]] be on honeymoon that she did not notice all this and phone the Doctor?
