:::How has no one noticed the blatant WH40K references in this episode? Are people so obsessed with thinking Doctor Who is free of references they can't note them without explicit Word of God? Come on. The emperor is the 41st, WH40K happens in the 41st millennium. They blow up planets at the drop of a hat and make fun of it for the whole episode. The Cybermen are pretty much as much a Borg reference as they are a Necron reference, complete with "using our own army as spare parts" which is how Necron fix themselves. They emerge from the planet after a long sleep, like how most Necron do; defeated a long time ago. They refer to their sleeping place as a tomb, just like Necron do! The squad of guards we see is dressed exactly in the style of WH40K's Imperial Guard, and they're considered all but useless '''and expendable'''. Everything has a Latin name! The ship is designed like a palace and it's square and blocky! Come on guys, this episode has WH40K written all over it. Nobody's saying it's a ripoff but it's an obvious nod.
