Revenge of the Cybermen - S12-E5

Continuity mistake: The use of gold against the Cybermen is wildly inconsistent in this episode. It is said that it suffocates them. Yet Cyberman have been seen functioning perfectly in vacuum ("The Moonbase" and "The Wheel in Space"), it affects the Cybermats, who are little more than metal drones, and it affects the Cybermen's radar, which does not breathe.

Revenge of the Cybermen - S12-E5

Continuity mistake: At the end of "Genesis of the Daleks", the Doctor was wearing his big brown overcoat. However, at the beginning of this episode, he is wearing his red jacket again.

Revenge of the Cybermen - S12-E5

Continuity mistake: For a supposedly emotionless creature, the Cyberleader is easily provoked to a fit of rage, including throwing the Doctor around the Beacon.

Mistakes

The Three Doctors - S10-E1

Revealing mistake: (Ep. 4) After Omega takes off his mask and looks in the mirror, when he sees that his physical body doesn't exist he puts his mask back on and screams, but when he shouts, "If I exist only by my will, then my will is to destroy," Omega's mask pops up off his face, and we can see the actor's blackened face as he shouts the last bit of his dialogue.

Questions

Logopolis - S18-E7

Question: If The Master had closed the CVE it would have resulted in the total destruction of the universe. Would he have really closed the CVE if the peoples of the universe hadn't responded to him? Isn't that the complete opposite of what The Master wants, i.e. complete control of the universe? Also, if the universe had been destroyed, who and what would he have left to control?

Socks1000

Chosen answer: The Master is insane. If he can't control the universe, he'd rather see it destroyed.
