Real-life cultural influences: Avengers?

Diana Rigg starred in The Avengers back in the 1960's; The Doctor and Clara infiltrating the factory bear some resemblance to Mr. Steed (complete with bowler hat) and Mrs. Peel, and Jenny's catsuit is something akin to Rigg's EmmaPeeler.

Is this a production error?

I'm not sure if this counts as a production error, but it's been bothering me since I saw the episode: the picture Artie and Angie found of Clara from the events of Hide shows the Doctor and Clara standing behind Palmer and Emma during the investigations of the Caliburn House ghost. So, ummm... who took the picture? Before they pulled Hila Tacorien out of the pocket universe, they were the only ones at the mansion. TARDIStraveler 20:40, May 6, 2013 (UTC)

It's not a Doctor-lite episode

This is not a Doctor-lite episode as The Doctor appears in the majority of the episode. I thought I'd post this opinion before deleting this identification in case anyone could provide a convincing argument opposing this deletion.

Madame Vastra, Jenny and Strax are only the main focus for the first 15 minutes of a 45 minute episode. As soon as The Doctor comes on to the scene, he and Clara are the prime movers in the storyline (along with the antagonists).

Think of the scene at the end by the rocket...the main Doctor Who characters are The Doctor and Clara who are with Ada while Vastra, Jenny & Strax provide backup. They are not the main characters of the episode, taken as a whole. They are sidekicks. The end of the episode doesn't feature those three Victorian characters but Clara. The show follows what happens with her, not how Vastra, Jenny & Strax made their way back to London. 63.143.238.98talk to me 19:23, May 10, 2013 (UTC)

Clara?

What actually happened to Clara in this episode? The only thing shown is the glass dome and what happened before. WolfwingandSlaveLeia 17:44, May 15, 2013 (UTC)

Stratagem reference?

When Vastra says "if our stratagem should succeed", is that a reference to The Sontaran Stratagem or not?
