Theory:Doctor Who audio discontinuity and plot holes/Zagreus

You are exploring the Discontinuity Index, a place where any details or rumours about unreleased stories are forbidden.
Please discuss only those whole stories which have already been released, and obey our spoiler policy.

This page is for discussing the ways in which Zagreus doesn't fit well with other DWU narratives. You can also talk about the plot holes that render its own, internal narrative confusing.

Remember, this is a forum, so civil discussion is encouraged. However, please do not sign your posts. Also, keep all posts about the same continuity error under the same bullet point. You can add a new point by typing:

* This is point one.
::This is a counter-argument to point one.
:::This is a counter-argument to the counter-argument above
* This is point two.
::Explanation of point two.
::Further discussion and query of point two.

... and so on. 

• The alternate universe in which the Doctor plucks out of his own hearts is transparently intended to that of the EDA novels. However, it was Sabbath who plucked out the Doctor's heart, not the Doctor himself. Besides, the audios directly reference the events of the EDAs more than once, so how can they be different universes?
  • Simply that they aren't and that not all of the timelines shown to Eight in Zagreus are actually alternative. He cannot remember them all and thus believes they are because of his frequent amnesia and presumably whatever events got the Matrix out of his head and back into reality after the Gallifrey Chronicles.
