10 Worst Doctor Who Worst Plotholes Ranked

10 Worst Doctor Who Worst Plotholes, Ranked

Doctor Who has had some phenomenal writing over the years, but it’s also suffered from some pretty huge plotholes. Here’s some of the worst ones.

If your program is about time travel, there are bound to be plot holes, so it stands to reason that Doctor Who is riddled with them. Many of these plot holes aren’t even time related, however, and merely point to overlooked details or dropped stories. From Davros’s reality bomb that had to go off in some parallel universe to supposedly fixed points in time constantly changing, rules are often broken on the show, leaving gaping plot voids the serpent in the Thames could easily pass through.

Adventures with a Time Lord may not make sense to us humans, companion or not, so we can always use that as an excuse to ignore some of the worst Doctor Who plot holes.

10 The Doctor Is Part Human

The tidbit of information, which dealt with the Doctor having human ancestry on his mother’s side, was totally dropped, never mentioned again in the series. If it were explored further, it would mean changes to everything from his part-human copy, left to grow old with Rose Tyler, to his similarities with River Song. If he’s not a complete Time Lord, after all, then shouldn’t he have more limitations?

9 River Song’s Imprisonment

Song is the only being who makes Daleks quiver with fear, moaning, “Mercy!” while she points a gun. Why would she stick around a jail cell even for this facade? And given the adventures we know she’s had since, exactly how long does she even stay in that cell in the first place?

8 Reapers Should Be Everywhere

Except there are tons of time paradoxes created throughout the show and the reapers just don’t show up. Were they like Christopher Eccleston, a one-time thing meant to excite us into jumping into the series again? Given how many times we’ve run into so many other species it really makes no sense that they aren’t more prominent in the show.

7 What Happened To Gallifrey?

Two entire seasons of the show were spent on trying to free Gallifrey, yet suddenly it was free without any explanation. It would seem as if writers might want to put in something about how this happened after spending so much time on the issue, not to mention give fans the satisfaction of seeing it unfold.

6 People Are A-OK After Life-Threatening Danger

It’s great that The Doctor, Amy, and Rory are able to reverse the shock that sent these people to their demise, but it’s completely ridiculous that the victims would still be alive after all this time. Even if they survived, they should still suffer some pretty harsh consequences, such as brain damage. It’s much more realistic when people meet their ends after episodes like these.

5 Orson Pink Shouldn’t Exist

How could Orson, or any of his ancestors, even exist if Danny was gone after “Dark Water?” Did he have secret children he didn’t know about? Was his DNA saved somehow in order to manufacture clones or be used by a futuristic fertility clinic? This makes no sense any way you look at it.

4 Matt Smith Shouldn’t Have Been Able To Regenerate

Neither of these ought to have been possible since “The Day of the Doctor” was added into the timeline, but who could have predicted that kind of incredible drama? The War Doctor might be the favorite of many a fan but he certainly left some gaping plot holes.

3 The Stranded Ponds

River Song’s Vortex Manipulator might have come in handy in this episode, among other things, but instead the Ponds were written off as a plot device, leaving fans wondering why the heck the Doctor didn’t do anything about it.

2 The Statue Of Liberty Was A Weeping Angel

If the Statue of Liberty was a weeping angel, why didn’t it go around attacking people? And assuming it did, then why wasn’t its movements ever noticed by the thousands of people looking at it all of the time? A missing 305-foot statue seems like something people would freak out about. And given that someone would always be watching it, how could it even move in the first place?

1 Are Daleks Related To Tribbles?

Either they were “exterminated” or not, and obviously they weren’t. Perhaps the Doctor shouldn’t harbor such guilt when he obviously didn’t complete the job he thought he did. It’s also dubious how the Doctor doesn’t know so many of them exist after all of his travels.
