Doctor Who

Asylum of the Daleks - S7-E2

Continuity mistake: When the Doctor reaches up to touch the face of the woman he's meeting, his left hand, with which he'd just grabbed the woman's hand in the previous shot, is by his side, only for him to be holding her hand again in the next shot. (00:01:57)

Suggested correction: The close-up shot of the Dalek just as Rory pushes it is positioned such that the ear lights, and the place where they're mounted, isn't visible anyway.

Dinosaurs on a Spaceship - S7-E3

Continuity mistake: After Rory and Brian are sitting in the control chairs, when the Doctor makes a Silurian joke and then gripes that no-one found it funny, Brian's hands move to the buttons on the end of the armrests instantaneously between shots. (00:39:20)

A Town Called Mercy - S7-E4

Continuity mistake: During the sequence involving Rory and Isaac leaving town with the latter disguised as Kahler-Jex in order to distract the Gunslinger so the Doctor can get back to the TARDIS, parked somewhere outside of Mercy, only to find Jex's ship instead, while Amy and Jex wait back at the sheriff's office, the Sun changes position several times, as do the shadows cast as a result. Most noticeably, when the Doctor finds the cable running from Jex's ship to town, the Sun is quite low, as if close to sunset - while appearing high, as if closer to midday, in the scenes of Rory and Isaac distracting the Gunslinger taking place at the same time. During the scenes of the Doctor finding Jex's ship and Amy and Jex in town, it is also earlier in the day. (00:10:50 - 00:17:17)

A Town Called Mercy - S7-E4

Continuity mistake: When Amy's holding a revolver while arguing with the Doctor, just before she accidentally fires it a second time, she goes from holding it pointed to her right to holding it pointing to the ground in front of her between shots. (00:23:53)

A Town Called Mercy - S7-E4

Continuity mistake: The scene where the Doctor forces Jex over the boundary line starts off in roughly mid-afternoon lighting, but when the Gunslinger arrives and Isaac is shot, the sunlight is at a much lower angle. (00:25:35)

The Power of Three - S7-E5

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)

The Power of Three - S7-E5

Continuity mistake: When the Doctor is in the containment unit with a cube during the countdown, there's a shot from outside where another cube in another containment unit is in the background, not displaying the countdown that all of the cubes are supposed to be showing. (00:29:03)

The Power of Three - S7-E5

Continuity mistake: When Rory finds his dad on the spaceship, Brian is lying on a gurney next to the two farthest slabs, which are empty. When Amy and the Doctor come through the portal to the spaceship, Brian's gurney is between the two closest slabs, with Rory lying on the closest one, which previously had a completely different person lying on it. (00:35:05)

Season 2 generally

Trivia: "Torchwood" is an anagram for Doctor Who. Russell T Davies came up with it during the filming of Series 1 to label the tapes in order to prevent theft and potential leakage, and decided to use the name in the show proper.

Midnight - S4-E10

Question: Is there any information on the entity shown in "Midnight?" It seems interesting enough to have some depth to it. It seemed to be bad in nature. It also seems to have been exactly what the woman that was possessed was afraid of.

Knever

Chosen answer: No, no information is avalible for the identity of the entity.
