Theory:Doctor Who prose discontinuity and plot holes/No Future


 * There is nothing in either The Time Meddler or The Daleks Master Plan to suggest that 'The Monk' actually ever was a monk. it was just a disguise he sued. Yet here there's a lengthy backhistory about his actually being a monk.


 * There is nothing in The Daleks Master Plan to suggest that The Monk was ever stranded on the ice planet. All that happened was that his directional control was ruined. He even states that he's now destined to wander the universe.


 * 4-Dimensional Vistas and Follow That TARDIS see the Monk meeting the Fifth and Seventh Doctors respectively, yet here, he states that this is the first time he's seen the Doctor since Ancient Egypt (in The Daleks Master Plan).


 * Benny states that she's been there two weeks. Later, without ever having left, it's only one week.


 * The Minyan has a thirteen-life(twelve regeneration) limit, yet it is explicitly stated in Underworld that the Minyans have no regeneration limit, and go on regenerating.


 * No Future's main purpose seems to be to promote the new UNIT dating. However, Virgin UNIT Dating places the stories in 1969-1973, while No Future explicitly states that The Invasion took place in 1970, which is wrong by both dating systems.
