* FlamingMeteor: In ''City at World's End'', the moon of the planet Sarath is set into a descending orbit after it is struck by a meteor, with serious geological implications even before it strikes the planet; by the time the TARDIS arrives, there is just over a month before the moon will hit and destroy all life on Sarath

* HomeworldEvacuation: Essentially the case in ''City at World's End''; Sarath is all-but-explicitly identified as a human colony that lost all records of its origin and had to start its space program from scratch, with the result that, by the time of the novel's events, they can only build a rocket capable of evacuating the inhabitants of the city of Arkhaven, which all evidence suggests is the last surviving city on the planet, [[spoiler:and even their research is not able to create an engine large enough to power the ship in question]].

* NoahsStoryArc: ''City at World's End'' looks at the last surviving city of the planet Sarath as it attempts to construct a vast spaceship to take its population to the neighbouring planet Mirath before Sarath's moon crashes into the planet and destroys it. [[spoiler:In the end, construction issues and internal conflicts mean that only just over a thousand survivors can make it to Mirath out of a population of over eighty thousand]].

* RaceAgainstTheClock: When the TARDIS arrives on Sarath in ''City at World's End'', the Doctor soon establishes that he has just over a month to replace the TARDIS key and help the natives get their ship in working order before the decaying moon crashes into Sarath; [[spoiler:the situation escalates when the moon fractures in advance of the predicted schedule, leaving them with eight hours to get everything together and off the planet]].

*JerkassHasAPoint: In ''Fear of the Dark'', ultimately [[spoiler:Cadwell’s concerns about the Doctor being susceptible to the Dark’s influence were valid, even if he could have at least told the Doctor the reasons for his concerns to help the Doctor fight it rather than act as though the Doctor was a willing accomplice Cadwell couldn’t trust]].

*LetsYouAndHimFight: Briefly utilised by the Doctor in ''Fear of the Dark'', when [[spoiler:he provokes the Dark (now manifested in a corporeal body) and the monstrous Bloodhunter to attack each other when the Dark had previously been using the Bloodhunter as its servant to regenerate its body. The Dark swiftly destroys the Bloodhunter but the fight leaves it more vulnerable, allowing the Doctor and his allies to properly kill it]].

*SmallNameBigEgo: In ''Fear of the Dark'', [[spoiler:Cadwell is a descendant of a group that previously stopped the Dark over a thousand years ago. This leaves Cadwell utterly convinced that only he knows how to at least delay the Dark’s resurrection, and when that fails his only “advice” is for the Doctor to kill his companions and then himself to spare them the more traumatic death of being killed by the Dark. Cadwell is so certain of this that he basically refused to try and help the Doctor find another way to stop the Dark, even as the Doctor makes valid observations about how the Dark’s need for a physical body gives it new weaknesses they can exploit]].

* EvilCannotComprehendGood: In ''Bullet Time'', the head of the Cortez Project- a branch of UNIT who regard any alien presence on Earth as a threat- thinks that she can persuade Sarah Jane Smith to join the Project as she's seen the dangers of alien activity and believes that the Doctor's recent actions (acting as head of a Triad branch as [[spoiler:part of a complex plan to help a crashed alien ship complete repairs and leave]]) prove that even he can't be trusted, not realising that Sarah just isn't that ruthless.
* FantasticRacism: ''Bullet Time'' introduces the Cortez Project, a division of UNIT who believe that ''any'' alien presence on Earth is dangerous and all aliens are a threat to the human race even if they come in peace and just want to leave.

** ''Independence Day'' opens with the Second Doctor's TARDIS arriving in a room full of electronic equipment, but although the Doctor guesses he's been brought there for a reason, he can't work it out at the time and decides to leave as the planet's too hot, but asks Jamie to bring a "souvenir" to remind him to return later. The Seventh Doctor learns that the "souvenir" was actually a vital part of the communications link between conflicting local cultures, so his actions have hindered the scientific development of the local society.

* SelfDestructingSecurity: “Palace of the Red Sun” features the royal family of the planet Esselven hampering the conquest of Protector Glavis Judd by sealing the last copies of important documents necessary to run the planet in a Radzell and Styne Maxima Vault, a truly impregnable safe. As described by one of Judd’s engineers, the vault has its own internal power source, collapsium-lined walls reinforced by internal fields and an external force shield, with any explosive force capable of breaching the walls triggering a self-destruct mechanism in the vault itself. The only way to open the vault is with a DNA body scan that will respond to the person whose DNA has been programmed into the system, although certain versions will respond to people in the same family. This forces Judd to put his campaign on hold to find the Esselven royals so that he can retrieve the vital official documents held within the vault, all of which are unique items required to run the planet properly such as trade agreements or computer codes for key systems.
