Not only can they shout "Time War!" but they can also shout "Big Bang 2!" Well, technically, Big Bang 2 was created using the history of Big Bang 1 (as determined by the light from that universe), so it should be the exact same universe but from just before the business with the Crack (which is why Amy gets her parents back). So all agreed on the UNIT Dating controversy, eh? Excellent! Any other bit of Discontinuity that's driving someone to distraction? The Doctor is In...

But...the crack is implied to be the reason no one remembers the events of 'The Next doctor' and the reason Amy doesnt know Daleks when she should after all the Davies era season enders  [on a non-discontinuity issue, do you think we'll ever find out who blew up the TARDIS to cause the crack/ how they did it/ and what, if anything it has to do with the faux Tardis seen in at least two eps now?]

The DWAITAS rules and the last aventure of the tenth doctor say that Time Lords have a high radiation immunity.
Just watching the first doctor's adventure "The Daleks", where the doctor, susan und the two teachers arrive on Skaro and immediately fall sick from radiation, the doctor worst of all.
When did that change?

To be fair, Skaro is/was probably highly irradiated.
The issues with the crack in the universe still haven't been fully explained yet.

The Doctor mentioned that he was from the far future in an Unearthly Child. If a Timelord can not travel into Gallifrey's past or future how come the Doctor is seen stealing a Tardis a long time ago. Is this a long time ago in the Doctor's timeline and all the Gallifrey visits happen in the far future from our contemporary perspective?

Rule one: the Doctor lies. Or, more likely, they just changed their idea of who the Doctor was. It's not like that a new idea!

Just watching the first doctor's adventure "The Daleks", where the doctor, susan und the two teachers arrive on Skaro and immediately fall sick from radiation, the doctor worst of all. When did that change? Many factors could explain this one, but the most likely one is that the Doctor's body is old and worn and the radiation on Skaro is very high and he is exposed to it for a very long time without realizing it (but, yes, the real world reason is most likely Russell T. Davies didn't give a rat's patoot about that and wanted to do something silly while demonstrating the Doctor had kewl powerz). The Doctor mentioned that he was from the far future in an Unearthly Child. If a Timelord can not travel into Gallifrey's past or future how come the Doctor is seen stealing a Tardis a long time ago. Is this a long time ago in the Doctor's timeline and all the Gallifrey visits happen in the far future from our contemporary perspective? The operative part of the sentence here is Gallifrey's Past. You can flit all over the place, from the Big Bang until the Big Crunch, but you can never, thanks to Gallifrey's Temporal Barriers, visit Gallifrey at any point before or after Gallifreyan Mean Time (i.e. the present on Gallifrey). This has other ramifications as well. See Gallifreyan Mean Time on pg.57 of the TTC.

What was the line that has the Doctor claiming to be from the future in "An Unearthly Child"?

What was the line that has the Doctor claiming to be from the future in "An Unearthly Child"? He only says that in the unaired pilot, not in the broadcast second attempt, right?
