Discontinuity, Plot Holes, Errors

 * At the end, Jack administers retcon to everyone at the wedding reception, to make them forget the alien encounter (not to mention Gwen's sudden pregnancy). Wouldn't this result in them, therefore, forgetting the wedding of Gwen and Rhys? Made even more complicated is the fact Gwen and Rhys are themselves offered retcon, so they too might have forgotten the wedding. Perhaps retcon allows for the implantation of false memories; this is in fact implied by Jack's statement about there being a long evening ahead after the retcon goes into effect.
 * Even if retcon allows false memories to be implanted, it's somewhat more difficult to rectify the fact one of the wedding guests in fact died. Perhaps the false memory omitted the man, who would turn up dead in another venue, as per established Torchwood cover-up policy.

Continuity

 * The singularity scalpel was last used in Reset.
 * Owen is unable to properly use his left hand because of the damage sustained to it in A Day in the Death.

DVD releases

 * This story along with the rest of Torchwood Series 2 is due to be released in a complete series boxset.
