-Meanwhile, the Doctor's companion Nyssa is in Rhodes during the time of the Crusades, where her position proves to be distinctly precarious.
+Meanwhile, the Doctor's companion [[Nyssa]] is in [[Rhodes]] during the time of the [[Crusades]], where her position proves to be distinctly precarious.
 It seems the Doctor's deadliest foes have woven a tangled web indeed. And in order to defeat them, he must cross the forbidden barriers of time and walk into the very centre of their latest, most outlandish scheme of conquest.

+=== Communications technology ===
+* The Doctor and Nyssa are experimenting with [[temporal interocitor]] technology to allow communication across different temporal areas.
+=== TARDIS ===
+* [[The Doctor's TARDIS|The TARDIS]] has a new [[Zero Room]].
+== Notes ==
+* This audio story was previewed in ''[[Doctor Who Magazine]]'' [[DWM 380|issue 380]] with an illustration by [[Martin Geraghty]].
+* This is the first Big Finish ''Doctor Who'' release to feature the new cover design of the main cover art on the right, with the story's title and an image of the Doctor on the left. This sidebar format would be used consistently until ''[[The Lure of the Nomad (audio story)|The Lure of the Nomad]]'' in 2018.
+* This audio drama was recorded on [[16 January (production)|16]] and [[17 January (production)|17 January]] [[2007 (production)|2007]] at [[the Moat Studios]].
+* Nyssa says she was in Rhodes in 1320, while the Doctor later says it was 1310. Given the Doctor has a better knowledge of Earth's history than Nyssa, and the fact the real life Knights Hospitaller took over Rhodes in 1310, as is depicted here, 1310 is the most likely date for this to be set.
+* This story is set between ''[[Time-Flight (TV story)|Time-Flight]]'' and ''[[Arc of Infinity (TV story)|Arc of Infinity]]''.

+== Continuity ==
+* The Doctor refers to the [[2150s Dalek invasion of Earth]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dalek Invasion of Earth (TV story)|The Dalek Invasion of Earth]]'')
+* The Doctor reminds Nyssa of their last encounter with the Daleks. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Mutant Phase (audio story)|The Mutant Phase]]'')
+* The old [[Zero Room]] was jettisoned during [[Event One]] in the immediate aftermath of the Doctor's fourth [[regeneration]]. Part of it was fashioned into a cabinet to help the Doctor recover from his post regenerative trauma. ([[TV]]: ''[[Castrovalva (TV story)|Castrovalva]]'')
+* The Doctor recalls visiting [[Logopolis]] towards the end of his [[Fourth Doctor|fourth incarnation]] in [[1981]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Logopolis (TV story)|Logopolis]]'')
+* The temporal interocitor remained in the TARDIS, though it was never used in the interim, until the [[Eighth Doctor]] surreptitiously placed it in the backpack of his former companion [[Lucie Miller]] after she told him that she intended to travel around [[Europe]] in the [[2190s]] with his great-grandson [[Alex Campbell]]. Following the second Dalek invasion of Earth, Lucie used the interocitor to leave a message for the Doctor, requesting his assistance. However, due to the interference of his fellow [[Renegade Time Lord|renegade]] [[Time Lord]] [[the Monk]], the Doctor arrived on Earth three years into the [[Dalek]] occupation.
