Theory:Doctor Who audio discontinuity and plot holes/The Book of Kells


 * The Doctor seems to be getting his information from fan fiction. He states that "The Monk" left Gallifrey fifty years after he did. However, in The Time Meddler (TV story) the Doctor fails to recognise the other Time Lord, 'guesses that "I would say I am fifty years earlier". "The Monk" however instantly recognises the Doctor.


 * Not a goof as such(except by whoever has the power to veto scripts), but this story reintroduces "The Monk"...it is set in an 11th Century monastery(where he disguises himself as a monk), and features Vikings. The equivalent would be every story featuring The Rani being set in an early 19th Century Northern town where she disguises herself as the owner of the local bath house.


 * The Doctor and "The Monk" state that they haven't seen each other since the events of The Daleks' Master Plan (TV story). So presumably 4-Dimensional Vistas, Follow That TARDIS and No Future never happened.
