Production errors

 * The Doctor's socks constantly change from stripey blue socks to his normal black socks.

Continuity

 * Rory states that he is 31 years old. If Rory was born in 1989 (considering that Amy and Rory are the same age in DW: Let's Kill Hitler and Amy's birth year according to DW: The Big Bang was 1989), then this story is set in 2020. Therefore, this seems to be the same year that Amy and Rory went back to the hill and waved to themselves in DW: The Hungry Earth.
