* Shayde's warning to the Doctor is a direct homage to [[Valyes|the Time Lord]]'s warning to the [[Fourth Doctor]].

* As in ''[[Time and the Rani (TV story)|Time and the Rani]]'' and later in ''[[The Christmas Invasion (TV story)|The Christmas Invasion]]'', the TARDIS wardrobe holds the outfits of several earlier incarnations. In particular, Erimem finds the [[Fourth Doctor]]'s [[The Doctor's scarf|scarf]] and [[hat]], ([[TV]]: ''[[Robot (TV story)|Robot]]'', et. al.) the [[Second Doctor]]'s [[The Doctor's fur coat|furry overcoat]] ([[TV]]: ''[[The Abominable Snowmen (TV story)|The Abominable Snowman]]'', ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]'') and the [[Third Doctor]]'s ruffled shirts and [[smoking jacket]]s ([[TV]]: ''[[Spearhead from Space (TV story)|Spearhead from Space]]'', et. al). Of the three, the Fifth Doctor seems fondest of the scarf — which he describes as "useful" but cumbersome as he tended to trip over it. The furry coat is described as being made of [[polyester]] rather than [[animal]] [[skin]] and as having come from the [[planet]] [[Thraxis]]. He expresses positive embarrassment at her discovery of the kind of clothes which he wore during his third incarnation. | * As in ''[[Time and the Rani (TV story)|Time and the Rani]]'' and later in ''[[The Christmas Invasion (TV story)|The Christmas Invasion]]'', the TARDIS wardrobe holds the outfits of several earlier incarnations.

* The TARDIS is said to have the ability to automatically reconfigure its rooms, leaving the Doctor temporarily unaware of where the rooms had gone.
