Theory:Doctor Who television discontinuity and plot holes/Dark Water


 * What is the point of hiding spare keys all over the TARDIS in the first place, if The Doctor looses a key whilst out and about whats the point of having spare keys all over the inside of the TARDIS, and why are they hidden in the first place who are they hidden from? If its Clara clearly they are terrible hiding places and if to prevent other people from having them surely if they steal one of the keys then their already in the TARDIS and if they are already in the TARDIS why would they try and steal a key thats only purpose is to get inside the TARDIS?
 * Perhaps they were hidden so that someone, say from UN.I.T, were to be invited into the TARDIS, say to escape from something deadly, and took one of the keys. If someone from UN.I.T got a TARDIS key, they could get into the TARDIS whenever they find it, not just when the doctor lets them in. As to why there are seven keys all in different places, I am not sure. He could be hiding them so that he can always have a key, and a companion (ie. Clara) can't take them all. Clara was able to find them all, because either: 1. She had seen where the Doctor hid them, or 2. Because it was in a dream.
 * Since he does give them to companions at various times, it's good to have extras readily available. In addition, it does seem very much like the Doctor to simply leave them about in random places. As a side note, we also don't know if that really was all the copies that he had.


 * I know it was a dream but does Clara not realise that, even if she throws destroys all the keys, The Doctor can open the door with a click of his fingers, after all she's seen him do it before and has even done it herself?
 * Clara was probably too stricken with grief with what happened to Danny. The Doctor knew this was a dream, hence why he didn't bother opening the doors with his fingers.


 * Why would The Doctor say "Go to hell," wouldn't it be more realistic for him to say "We go to hell?" If what he says is what he means than it makes no sense for him to say what he said.
 * Clara says: 'So, what now? What do we do now? You and me, what happens now? Doctor?' The Doctor simply gave a short answer for the second question, what do we do - go to hell, seems realistic enough.


 * If only organic matter can be seen through Dark Water, how can buttons and sentences 'Rest in Peace' be shown when Cybermen pushes those button?
 * Who says those AREN'T made of organic matter?


 * If the skeletons in the mausoleum were actually cybermen, and looked like skeletons because of the dark water, then why was the noise they made when they turned their heads sound like cracking, rather than something mechanical?
 * It's possible that was an "added effect", much like the incidental music that plays during the programme (which is obviously not heard by the characters). Alternatively, the sound may have been altered because they were immersed in fluid.
