 * The novelisation is dedicated to: [[Terrance Dicks]] (with the added line "Who made me want to write a Doctor Who novelisation"), [[Philip Segal]] and [[Matthew Jacobs]].
 * Author Gary Russell later worked with the [[Big Finish Productions]] audio dramas series and as script editor for ''Doctor Who'' when it returned to television in 2005. This makes him one of the few people connected in a major way to the 1996 movie to carry on with the later revival. He would also write [[IDW Publishing]]'s ''Doctor Who'' comic book series in 2007-08 as well as novelisations based upon episodes of ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]''. In the 1970s, Russell was a child actor and one of the young stars of the TV series ''The Famous Five''; a photo shoot promoting the series in the ''TV Times'' showed one of the young stars — possibly Russell — posing with a stack of [[Target Books]] ''Doctor Who'' novelisations.
