Jon's Theory of Everything
I just found this old e-mail I sent at work, which describes my Life on Mars/Doctor Who unification theory. Bear in mind this was written on the sly while I was supposed to be doing real work, so forgive my scatty memory and logic. OKAY IT FOLLOWS NOW:
Sam being hit by the car coincided with one of the "rift" experiments that Torchwood was performing immediately prior to The Battle of Canary Wharf. This (1) had him in his coma during the Cyberman invasion, and (2) jolted his consciousness through to the (past of the) parallel Earth where Rose now is.
Given the "coincidences" that brought the Doctor to that point in space and time, it's possible the Master is also present (whether due to the same coincidences or he manipulated the situation). Also given that the Master can inhabit and physically heal a human body, he may have seen Sam's apparent suicide and loss of consciousness through free-will as an easy host, hence his appearance and explaining his poor health.
The Doctor, with the help of Jack and Torchwood, manages to safely recreate the rift, and they all go back to 1973 on the parallel Earth to find Sam, so that can they can shift Sam's consciousness back into his original body thus displacing the Master. Gene spies on them and gets caught, and is brought along.
Back in the present day, the Master is defeated and Sam returns to his body, but there is a TERRIBLE ACCIDENT and they cannot recreate the rift, so Gene is trapped in 2007.
And thus begins "Ashes to Ashes".

Yet again, your ability to generate plot bunnies impresses me. :)
I'll reply to your e-mail ASAP - I was at a LRP event until yesterday evening, and I've spent most of today recovering on the sofa.
