Theory:SJA television discontinuity and plot holes/The Day of the Clown


 * Luke says that they have saved the world 12 times, but this is incorrect as this is the number of overall episodes (not counting Invasion of the Bane) rather than stories, which is 6 (SJA: Revenge of the Slitheen - SJA: The Last Sontaran).
 * He may have been referring to off-screen adventures, or the events of DW: The Stolen Earth / Journey's End and in some times they have save it more than once in a single episode SJA: The Last Sontaran and Invasion of the Bane does add to the count for Luke.


 * Why is Rani so surprised when Sarah Jane mentions aliens, after everything that has happened in Doctor Who - Autons, the Slitheen spaceship, the battle of Canary Wharf, the Adipose spaceship, ATMOS, Dalek spaceships, planets in the sky and all the things that have happened in Torchwood.
 * Government cover-ups making the public believe otherwise, such as terrorists, chemical hallucinations, etc. Even if she believed aliens existed, it is likely that she would still be skeptical that the woman across the street fights them all the time. Also it has often been remarked throughout the various Whoniverse series that humans will believe anything except for what's right in front of them.


 * In the frame, Luke hangs two fingers over Maria's head to look like she has 'bunny ears'. How can Luke do this if he doesn't understand the concept of jokes?
 * Luke probably got this off someone, seeing as some people were helping him get used to the world plus it has been over a year and a half since his 'birth'.
 * If you look at his face in the picture, it does have a "puzzled" look, as if he's not really sure what it is - so perhaps he did just see it being done.

I live at
 * The Chandra's house has changed from being 12 Bannerman Road (SJA: Invasion of the Bane) to 36 Bannerman Road. Furthermore, why is number 36 Bannerman Road opposite number 13?


 * Why didn't Sarah Jane see a hallucination of the marionette while subjected to DW: The Sontaran Experiment?
 * Who says she didn't? Correct me If I'm wrong but no flashbacks were shown in that story


 * Sarah states that the clowns are being mentally manipulated by the Piper, yet when she uses her sonic lipstick on them sparks fly, like they are robots, so are they robots or telekinetically controlled dummies?
