Continuity mistake: When Suki goes to leave the lift on floor 500, her arms are by her sides, then suddenly both hands are gripping the strap on her bag. (00:14:00)
The Day of the Doctor - S7-E16
Continuity mistake: After the 10th Doctor marries Elizabeth, they kiss. While they are kissing, the collar on his jacket gets turned up, from her point of view. The camera then switches to look at her from over his shoulder, then back, and now the collar is straight. (00:49:40)
The Day of the Doctor - S7-E16
Continuity mistake: At the end, when the Tenth Doctor steps into his TARDIS, there are three sets of cups and saucers on the side of the bench farthest from the TARDIS, and Clara's set in the middle of the bench, but as the TARDIS fades away, there are two sets on each end of the bench. (01:14:10)
Continuity mistake: When the Doctor uses his sonic screwdriver on the glass partition in the Torchwood Institute, cracks radiate out in a star pattern, meaning the glass will break into pointed shards. When it does break, it breaks into cubes, like safety glass. (00:29:30)
The End of Time: Part Two - S4-E18
Revealing mistake: When Addams is telling Rossiter not to respond the Master's message, a patch of non-green skin can be seen on her face showing where the makeup wasn't fully painted on. (00:27:50)
The End of Time: Part Two - S4-E18
Revealing mistake: When the Doctor is being rolled down the stairs whilst he is strapped to the chair, it is apparent that in the wide shots, it is a dummy in the chair and not the Doctor. In the wide shots, the Doctor is sitting virtually still and motionless, but in the closer shots, he is fidgiting.
Continuity mistake: When the Doctor is at the Tower of London with Amy and Kate, he claims he needs some air. When Amy follows him she follows him twice, in two different shots. The first time on 'ground view' walking and the second time on 'above view' running. (00:21:20)
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Cobb is briefing his troops, the troops all have their guns, but in the other scene (after you see the Hath marching) the troops are receiving guns. (00:15:45)
The Family of Blood (2) - S3-E9
Revealing mistake: The pyrotechnic mortars used in the destruction of the Family's ship are visible in the shots leading up to their detonation. As the Family run from their ship through the field, the mortars are visible against the branches behind them. Shortly afterwards, they detonate, creating the illusion that the invisible craft has exploded.
Revealing mistake: When the TARDIS dematerialises and causes wind to blow against Churchill and Amy, their clothes are affected - but the cigar smoke in the air is unaffected, and actually drifts towards the vanishing TARDIS. (00:14:25)
Audio problem: Near the beginning of the episode when we first see Bannakaffalata, he says "Christmas is funny", yet his lips don't match what he is saying. (00:01:45)
Continuity mistake: Throughout this episode, Amy's earrings seem to disappear and reappear.
Amy's Choice - S5-E7
Continuity mistake: When Rory and Amy are running from the Eknodine, there is no mud on Rory's back, but he was thrown on his back into mud a minute before. (00:23:06)
The Family of Blood (2) - S3-E9
Continuity mistake: When Timothy opens the watch into the girl's eyes, Jeremy Baines shouts "Time Lord", then a few seconds later; "What are we waiting for. Attack!" There is then a shot looking down on the scarecrows, Jeremy and Jenny. If you look closely at Jeremy Baines, it's a different actor playing him. (00:16:20)
Other mistake: Just before the Doctor ignites the atmosphere, Sylvia's house is getting dangerously full of gas. When Sylvia and Wilf go outside after the air is cleared, the inside of their house is completely clear. Meanwhile, back at the Rattigan Academy, there is still gas lingering in the air. (00:34:43 - 00:37:15)
Factual error: The Doctor sets the atmosphere on fire, but only the upper part burns. The atmosphere extends from the Earth's surface (where it is densest) upwards, and so the flames would come right down to the ground, burning everyone to death. Of course that wouldn't work with the plot, so artistic licence has been applied.
The Impossible Planet (1) - S2-E11
Plot hole: The Doctor and Ida are stranded 10 miles down, and yet the lift travels very slowly, like walking pace. They only have an hour's worth of oxygen left in their suits - by the time they get to the surface, it would have run out.
The Impossible Planet (1) - S2-E11
Plot hole: The rocket flew down a gravity funnel and (presumably) crash-landed on the planet, since the true Captain died during the landing. The rocket is big, but surely not large enough to contain all the 'flat-packed' materials for the sanctuary base (which is massive) and the gantry which supports the rocket. Where did that gantry come from? It is the same size as the rocket. It is not possible that the sanctuary base and rocket gantry could have fitted on board that rocket.
Flux: Chapter One - The Halloween Apocalypse - S13-E1
Continuity mistake: At the very start, when Yaz says, "Oh yeah, we are totally in command," just as it begins to zoom out, the handcuff around Yaz's right wrist has the double bar facing out and her left wrist has the single bar facing out, but in following shots both handcuffs are facing the same way. Similarly, this occurs with the Doctor's handcuffs around both wrists, when the Doctor keeps trying the voice recognition. (00:00:10)
Chosen answer: 1) When Stephen Moffat took over he ignored a lot of what had been developed before (there is not in-universe answer). 2) It would have killed Rose, so the Doctor absorbed the energy. His body regenerated before the energy could do a significant amount of damage that would prevent regeneration.
