* WhatCouldHaveBeen: When Creator/PatrickNess announced he was leaving the show, he shared some of the ideas he had for a second series: a Weeping Angel civil war (and their home planet), Quill having a dangerous son, and Charlie and Matteusz doing shirtless wood chopping. In May 2018 it was announced that the series would continue in new audio dramas produced by Big Finish Productions; none of Ness' planned plotlines have been adapted, as their license only permits stories set during the television series. (Though it must be admitted the Angels and the shirtless wood-chopping probably wouldn't have the same appeal in audio anyway!)

*** The main theme driving series 2 was going to be DealWithTheDevil and exploring the ramifications of such choices.
*** The cliffhanger with April would have been resolved by making a deal with the Governors for something in order to get her body back.
*** There was a storyline where present Charlie met a future Charlie who’d essentially lost his soul to save Matteusz, with the dilemma of whether this future could be averted or if he should go with this future in order to save Matteusz.
*** YA author Kim Curran had pitched several ideas for an episode, the most favored being the Weeping Angels sending the main characters back to the 90s who then had to pin their hopes on a time capsule dug up 30 years later at Coal Hill to get them back to the present.
*** Another YA author, Juno Dawson, was developing a story about Tanya taking a day out to try being someone else, with the notion of also revealing her sexuality as pan or bi.
*** Creator/DerekLandy was also tapped for a story, which never made it beyond the vague notion of tackling the internet, fame, and fan entitlement over entertainment.
*** The Weeping Angel civil war was going to lean into StarfishAliens as a completely alien conflict incomprehensible to humans with huge parts of it under TheUnreveal.

* InvisibleAdvertising: Despite the show being a spin-off of the popular ''Series/DoctorWho'', it got little advertising and premiered with little fanfare. This, along the mixed reception, might be why it didn't last more than one season.

The delay also allowed negative word of mouth to spread both from viewers in the UK and Canada, as well as from Americans who downloaded the series.

* {{Jossed}}: When Miss Quill was indicated to be a Coal Hill teacher and an undercover alien in early publicity, many fans immediately theorised that she would be a new incarnation of the Doctor's granddaughter and Coal Hill alumna Susan. In fact, she's a completely new character and not a Time Lord.
