* How did Sarah Jane, Luke, Maria and Clyde all die if Maria and Luke had not yet met Clyde? Also, presumably Maria had no contact with Sarah Jane and Luke between the defeat of the [[Bane (Invasion of the Bane)|Bane]] and the attack by the [[Slitheen]].

::It's never specifically stated when in the timeline Maria meets Sarah Jane, though it's generally assumed that the events of [[Invasion of the Bane]] and [[Revenge of the Slitheen]] take place after the [[Battle of Canary Wharf]], but before [[Saxon]]'s election. This episode would seem to put them before [[Smith and Jones]]. Also, with the Doctor being dead, it's made clear that Sarah Jane took on a more proactive role, so events may have progressed differently.

:::'''[[The Secret Lives of Monsters (short story)|Secret Lives of Monsters]]'' actually dates ''Smith and Jones'' as happening on 4 June 2008. ''Revenge of the Slitheen'' happens three months later.
:::''[[The Secret Lives of Monsters (short story)|Secret Lives of Monsters]]'' dates ''Smith and Jones'' as happening on 4 June 2008. ''Revenge of the Slitheen'' happens three months later. Either something happened in this timeline to make the full Bannerman Road gang come together at an earlier date, or it's an honest-to-god continuity error.


* How did the Sontarans put their ATMOS plot in motion if Martha was dead (She was used as a clone to infiltrate UNIT) and Britain (Where Luke Rattigan is from and the main ATMOS factory is located) was economically crippled?
