Theory:Doctor Who television discontinuity and plot holes/Death in Heaven


 * Clara mentions that the Doctor was married four times However, the Doctor has been married at least six times. Although, only four in the show.
 * There are only four wives mentioned in canon: River; Elizabeth I; Scarlette, who was in an 8th doctor book; and Marilyn Monroe. Even if there are more wives, it is entirely possible that Clara hasn't been told of about all of them.


 * Clara mentions that all of the Doctor's wives are deceased. However, it is almost impossible that the Doctor's first wife is deceased considering she is a Time Lady.
 * Who's the Time Lady wife? The closest to a Time Lady who the Doctor has married is River, who was just human a few Time Lady abilities.
 * It's possible that the First Doctor married a Time Lady wife who then gave birth to Susan's parent.
