Joanna Martin didn’t have the time or the necessities to clean herself up during the Un-Year in ‘First of the Infinity Knights’,

because it would’ve been just plain insulting to viewers if she looked like she’d just walked out of a spa while the world around her was in disarray.

It probably wouldn’t have been a surprise if the villagers had labelled the Inspector a witch during ‘The Witch Hunters’,

but the writers decided to avoid the obvious and let the Inspector get on with their investigation into what was causing the creepy incidents near Cragg Vale.

It seemed as if no time had passed for the other Inspector when they dragged Ona out of her room at the Laurentian Hotel in London and into the Spacetime Hotel.

That was the case, since they simply popped over to where their 14th incarnation resided and borrowed their BOOTH to get back to the Spacetime Hotel in the year 4202.

It was good that the Inspector was able to optick up a digital-funds transfer to Greg in ‘The Tenant’,

otherwise Greg might have assumed the Inspector was some sort of drug peddler or undocumented labourer.

It was good that the current show runner didn’t try to retcon

how Anubis was allegedly sent to his death in ‘The Ziggurats of Venus’.

If it hadn’t been for Amir El-Masry and María Pedraza Morillo,

‘Scoundrel’ would have had a completely white cast.

The fact that the strange old woman appeared at the beginning of the episode and was nowhere to be seen at the end

implies that Emerald had changed something about the timeline, meaning that she wasn’t going to go through it all again.

Unlike in that rip-off, the Inspector knows to find the central-processing unit when

he/she needs to attack a computer to stop it from doing whatever evil it was planning.
