** Sarah Jane's young parents discover the older woman they met is actually the adult version of their infant daughter, who they will not get to raise themselves. [[spoiler: This happens again in "A Good Man Goes to War" three years later with Amy, Rory, and River Song, only from the parents' perspective. Rather than sacrificing themselves for their daughter, Amy and Rory are ''forcibly'', painfully separated from her, only to discover after that they'd already met her adult self. Even worse, River watches her parents essentially go to their deaths a season later in "Angels Take Manhattan", just like Sarah Jane does here, though unlike the Smiths, the Ponds/Williams get to live a full life in the past.]]

* HarsherInHindsight: Rani's "Hello, yes, ethnic person in the fifties" bit becomes a lot less funny when the Doctor takes her non-white companions to 1950s Alabama in "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS37E3Rosa Rosa]]" and their experience is played more seriously.

It's not unrealistic in the episode; a rural town in Britain in the 50s likely would be more non-plussed than hostile; India had been part of the British Empire less than a decade ago.

"Idiot Plot" is now Flame Bait.
Deleted line(s) 2 (click to see context) :
* IdiotPlot: The plot revolves around Sarah Jane ignoring all her time travel experience that tells her not to alter time and ignoring the possibility that someone is trying to get her to do just that. A possibility that she herself brings up.
