* Ellie complains that the Valeyard criticises her for carrying weapons unless it suits him. In the proper timeline, the [[Seventh Doctor]]'s companion [[Ace]] frequently raises similar objections.

* The Matrix’s projection of the Sixth Doctor’s missed encounter with Mel is inconsistent with their actual first encounter in [[PROSE]]: ''[[Business Unusual (novel)|Business Unusual]]''; they didn’t meet at the police station, but the previous day, when the Doctor took her friend Trey Korte back home before realising that he was staying with Mel. However, this story does take place in an alternative timeline, and it is possible that the Valeyard had already changed history in some other way, perhaps erasing Trey or the Nestenes from history. | * The Matrix’s projection of the Sixth Doctor’s missed encounter with Mel is inconsistent with their actual first encounter in [[PROSE]]: ''[[Business Unusual (novel)|Business Unusual]]''; they didn’t meet at the police station, but the previous day, when the Doctor took her friend Trey Korte back home before realising that he was staying with Mel.

* Vansell compares the Valeyard to the inchoate form of the [[The Watcher (Logopolis)|Watcher]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Logopolis (TV story)|Logopolis]]'') but claims that it is unprecedented for such a being to achieve independent sentience, implying either that the Time Lords are unaware of the existence of [[Cho Je]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Spiders (TV story)|Planet of the Spiders]]'') or that he was something else entirely. | * Vansell compares the Valeyard to the inchoate form of the [[The Watcher (Logopolis)|Watcher]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Logopolis (TV story)|Logopolis]]'') but claims that it is unprecedented for such a being to achieve independent sentience, implying either that the Time Lords are unaware of the existence of [[Cho Je]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Spiders (TV story)|Planet of the Spiders]]'') or that he was something else entirely. |
