Revealing mistake: When K-9 is cutting through the wall of the hut, the cut overtakes his laser at one point.
Revealing mistake: The footage of Kroll eating Harg is obviously reversed, as evidenced by the fact that the smoke from the pipe is heading into it, whereas in every other shot it's flowing out of it. (00:23:00)
Visible crew/equipment: The boom mike can be seen in the first scene set at the stones in the upper right corner of the screen.
Continuity mistake: During Kroll's attack on the refinery, several pieces of the refinery get broken off and then reappear in subsequent shots.
Revealing mistake: One of the stones wobbles when a crow lands on it in episode one.
The Armageddon Factor - S16-E6
Continuity mistake: In episode 2, just after K-9 begins blasting the door, look behind Romana and notice that you can see the TARDIS - which supposedly left in the previous scene.
The Armageddon Factor - S16-E6
Plot hole: In episode four, Merak expounds on how only the Doctor and Romana can get into the TARDIS, despite the fact that he shouldn't even know what the TARDIS is. His insight continues in episode six, where he talks knowledgeably of the sixth segment of the Key to Time, despite having been told nothing about it.
Destiny of the Daleks - S17-E1
Revealing mistake: In episode one, when the Doctor and his companion hear rumbling and the ground moves beneath their feet, when they step away you can see that they are standing on different ground than before, and it's not shaking. (00:08:00)
Destiny of the Daleks - S17-E1
Revealing mistake: When the Doctor and his companion are running past explosions in the sand, you can see the scrape marks from where the effects team covered up the holes containing the charges. (00:13:00)
Destiny of the Daleks - S17-E1
Revealing mistake: Right after Davros yells "The Daleks will rule the universe," in Episode 3, one of the Dalek operators accidentally starts to lift the top off his Dalek before the scene ends. (00:17:35)
Destiny of the Daleks - S17-E1
Factual error: Davros comments that, between them, The Daleks are carrying half a megaton of explosives - in other words, roughly twenty-five times more explosive force than the Hiroshima or Nagasaki bombs. An explosion of that size should cause enormous destruction (vaporizing everything within roughly two kilometers), yet when the Doctor detonates them they explode with about as much power as a small stick of dynamite each.
Destiny of the Daleks - S17-E1
Plot hole: The Daleks spend a lot of time and effort mining down to where Davros is, despite the fact that there is a window on that level and Davros is on the ground floor.
Destiny of the Daleks - S17-E1
Deliberate mistake: The shot of the alien spacecraft flying in the sky is the same in episode 4 as in episode 1, only it's reversed. The taking off and landing are the same too, except smoke and rubble have been added.
Destiny of the Daleks - S17-E1
Revealing mistake: The seam between the actor's real face and the Davros mask is very obvious, especially on the upper lip.
Plot hole: In episode 4, watch what Romana does to Professor Kerensky's time machine in order to make it work. It is surprising that the time machine works at all, considering she is supposed to be in Paris at the time. Romana wires up the time machine to a British (i.e. 3-pin 240 volts) electric plug instead of a "continental" 3-pin 110 volt plug.
Continuity mistake: The sketch of Romana is different when it's seen outside the café from the one seen inside the café (and just who's doing the sketch, and why?).
Revealing mistake: In episode 2, when Scaroth locks the Doctor, Romana and Duggan in the basement dungeon, and Duggan lights the lamp, notice that Tom Baker is standing between that lamp and the actual stage light used to brighten the scene. So, as the lamp is lit in front of him, Tom Baker's BACK (and not his front) glows bright under the increased illumination.
Continuity mistake: When the Count's henchmen come into the café to get the Doctor, Romana and Duggan, they usher them all out at gunpoint. When you see them in the location filming in Paris, Duggan's not there...but back at the Count's place (in the studio in London) he's reappeared.
Revealing mistake: In episode one, Scaroth's 'Jagaroth skin' on his wrist flaps about. Either that's a badly fitting piece of costume...or he's suffering from severely peeling skin.
Plot hole: The Atlantic Ocean didn't exist in Early Devonian times (c.400 million years ago), so Scaroth's ship could not have been where the Doctor claimed. The Atlantic was formed when Europe and Africa separated from North America around 160 million years ago and is still growing. What is now the sea-bed was once covered up by several miles of Continental Shelf. The Early Devonian landscape would have been far from barren as plantlife was well established by then. So, either the Doctor's theory that Scaroth's exploding ship caused the creation of life on Earth is wrong, or it was much earlier than he said.
Answer: It was never destroyed on-screen; it was intact at the end of the TV movie, and destroyed by the start of the 2005 series. It was destroyed in the novel "The Ancestor Cell," but in a completely different manner to what happened in the series.
