Added context.


* ContinuitySnarl: This episode directly ties into the ending minutes of "End of Days". However, it is '''completely''' incompatible with that ending, where Jack mysteriously disappears from the hub, and the crew never see him leave. The ending heavily suggests that the TARDIS was meant to land inside the Hub (as evidenced by the wind blowing papers around, which Owen notices as they'd just cleaned up), not above the Hub as shown here. There's none of Jack's screaming [[IncomingHam "DOCTOOOoRRRR!!!"]] either, which Gwen ''definitely'' would've heard. Jacks "Doctor Detector" is also still in the hub behind Gwen, despite him leaving with it here for Martha to find.

Trope name is Sci Fi Writers Have No Sense Of Scale, not any of its subpages. Discussion here.


* SciFiWritersHave/NoSenseOfTime: Technically averted due to RealityIsUnrealistic. The Doctor says the TARDIS has travelled to the year 100 trillion, which sounds like a ridiculously high number, even for the age of the universe. However there are scientific theories predicting that the universe could indeed survive for that long, if not even longer. Though since a universe that old wouldn't have recognisable things like planets and people it's not completely averted.

* MoodWhiplash: The bittersweet scene where poor old Yana tearfully ruminates on his past and the time travel stories he used to hear... and then he takes out his pocket watch... Hey, why'd the background music suddenly turn scary?
