World Enough and Time was the eleventh episode of series 10 of Doctor Who.

The episode continued the ongoing story arc concerning Missy's rehabilitation, with the Doctor taking Missy on her first adventure and entrusting her with his two companions in an experiment to test how good she has become. It also showed Bill Potts being converted into a Cyberman and displayed what appeared to be the beginning of the Twelfth Doctor's regeneration.

World Enough and Time notably featured the return of John Simm as the Saxon Master, seven years after his last appearance in The End of Time, marking the first time a previous actor of the Master had returned to the television series after being recast. The episode also showed John Simm's Master acting alongside Michelle Gomez's Missy, marking the first onscreen appearance of more than one incarnation of the Master.

It also marked the return of the Mondasian Cybermen on television for the first time since they were introduced in 1966's The Tenth Planet, and the Cybermen's first significant appearance since series 8's Death in Heaven. The episode depicted a fourth alternative account of the genesis of the Mondasian Cybermen - different origins have been shown in the comics The World Shapers and The Cybermen, and the audio story Spare Parts. This was, however, explained in The Doctor Falls with a reference to "parallel evolution".

In 2023, despite World Enough and Time together with The Doctor Falls ranking as the most popular Twelfth Doctor TV story ahead of Heaven Sent in a poll by Doctor Who Magazine,^[1]^{[nb 1]}, a later DWM poll that year with a shortlist of 37 finalists including the two aforementioned stories declared World Enough and Time/The Doctor Falls the second most popular TV story of the first 60 years of Doctor Who, behind the winner, Heaven Sent.^[2]

Synopsis[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor decides to test how good Missy has become by sending her on a trial run with Bill and Nardole. However, when things go wrong, the Doctor takes over. With Bill trapped in a different time zone, can the Doctor make it to her before it is too late, and who are all those people getting cured?

Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor regenerating.

The Doctor stumbles from his TARDIS onto a snow-filled landscape, repeatedly chanting "no" as he falls to his knees. He begins to regenerate...

Sometime prior, while walking through the courtyard at St Luke's University, the Doctor decides to test if Missy can turn good, despite Bill's objections. They discuss it further in St Luke's kitchen, where their short dispute causes the Doctor to become emotional, due to Missy being the closest thing he has to someone else like him, something that amuses Nardole, who takes a selfie with him to chronicle the moment. Later that day, Bill and the Doctor eat together on the University roof, and the Doctor convinces Bill to let Missy try to prove herself. After a brief discussion about the Time Lords and gender stereotypes, Bill confesses that Missy truly scares her. The Doctor tries to promise he can ensure Bill won't die but admits it can't be guaranteed. Regardless, he assures her that he will be there should things get out of hand.

The plan set, the Doctor drops Missy, Bill and Nardole off on a colony spaceship facing a black hole in the hopes of saving it. Missy introduces herself as "Doctor Who" to the cameras, which she claims is the Doctor's real name despite the Doctor denying such. He soon becomes impatient with their progress, walking around the TARDIS eating crisps. Missy finally follows suit by deducing why a distress call was made. She also mocks Nardole and Bill's roles as "comic relief" and "exposition" given their genders. They are soon met by a blue-skinned humanoid named Jorj who demands to know which one of them is a human. Bill confesses that she is human, and the Doctor exits the TARDIS, taking charge as Jorj prepares to shoot Bill as creatures at the bottom of the ship begin to come up in the elevators. Despite the Doctor's pleas, Jorj shoots Bill in the chest, mortally wounding her. Figures with bandaged faces in hospital gowns collect her body, and, using voice synthesisers, claim that they will fix her but shall not return. The Doctor trusts them, leaving a psychic message for Bill to wait for him when she awakes.

The TARDIS lands on a colony ship.

Jorj threatens the Doctor when he attempts to scan the elevators but is threatened by Missy with her umbrella, who states only she is allowed to kill the Doctor and that it will only make the Doctor cross. Once things settle down, the Doctor explains that, due to the lower part of the ship being further away from the black hole, time moves faster on the bottom floors than it does on the top floor that they are in. He notes how lifts slowed down when they neared the top due to the difference in gravitational pull, using a red pen in his sonic screwdriver to illustrate. He also states that the creatures on board the ship are the descendants of the crew who went to the lower part of the ship when it got dragged towards a black hole and needed to be reversed, as decades have passed for them even though it has only been two days for Jorj. Jorj admits his confusion; the Doctor mocks him for his lack of knowledge despite supposedly going to "space school", causing the man to reveal he is only a janitor. The Doctor then knocks out Jorj using Venusian aikido so that he and the others can follow Bill. Nardole, stating it has been ten minutes for them, wonders how long Bill has been living below, to which the Doctor replies he hopes they aren't too late.

Meanwhile, at the base of the ship, Bill awakes in a hospital ward with a cybernetic heart fused into her chest. A feral caretaker looks at her before running off. Coming to her senses, she briefly sees a vision of the Doctor telling her to wait for him only for him to vanish. She observes the room, noticing two clocks on the wall, one for Floor 1056 - which registers 365034 days, 23 minutes, and 26 seconds, or 999.430015 years - and another for Floor 0000, which indicates 2 days, 10 hours, 45 minutes, and 17 seconds.

Bill eventually clambers to her feet and begins to follow the noise of someone chanting "pain", soon finding it be another patient on the ward. She goes to fiddle with its voice synthesiser but has to hide as the feral man and a nurse enter the ward; the nurse mutes the synthesiser. The caretaker, revealed to be called Mr Razor, takes a liking to Bill and brings her to his room. He explains how time passes faster for them compared to those on the top floor, using a tin can to illustrate, and offers Bill tea. He explains how Bill was hurt on the upper levels so had to have her heart replaced with a "shiny" cyber heart and that she has been at the hospital for a few months. He also shows her a live feed of the upstairs, which Bill then spends her time watching despite its extremely slow pace. Months go by, Bill witnessing how the Doctor raised his eyebrow for a week and braced to explain the situation to his associates. While waiting, Bill recovers enough that she is eventually put to work cleaning the hospital by the nurse while plagued by the Doctor's message to keep waiting.

The patients on Floor 1056.

On one particular day, she contemplates leaving the hospital only for it to alarm the other patients on the ward, unnerving her enough to stay. After being there just over a year, she eventually convinces Razor to take her out of the hospital, where he reveals to her that the patients are being converted in preparation for "Operation Exodus" as the humans' finite lifespan cannot survive the journey back up to the top. They witness how the dying residents are guided to the hospital by the partially upgraded. After a while, Bill's cyber heart fails, forcing them back to the hospital.

More years pass, Bill eventually convincing Razor to take her to the elevators so she can be transferred back upstairs. They sneak in, Razor revealing he has a key to the conversion theatre, wearing a mask in skit attempt to disguise himself. However, once inside, it is revealed to have been a scheme to condemn Bill to a full conversion as, according to the surgeon, people usually scream if alerted to the real reason why they are taken into the theatre. The prototype patients in the room restrain her as the surgeon remarks how the headpiece he will fit on her head will inhibit emotion so she won't care about the pain of the process.

Meanwhile, the Doctor, Missy and Nardole make it to the bottom floor, the Doctor having Missy delve into the ship's computer history to find out what has occurred below, annoying Nardole as that tends to be his job. He and the Doctor explore deeper into the hospital, finding a surgery room. The Doctor uses his sonic to activate the light above the bed, Nardole jumping in surprise at there being partially converted patients in the room. Elsewhere, Razor approaches Missy as she researches, asking her if she doesn't remember being on the ship before; the Time Lady threatening to kill him if he comes closer than three feet.

Twelfth Doctor discovers he is too late to save Bill.

The others eventually learn of Operation Exodus, while Missy simultaneously learns the ship's origin: Mondas, twin planet of Earth. Razor teases her again, drawing a pistol, taunting Missy that the Doctor will never forgive her or set her free after he discovers what she did to Bill; Missy insists that she hasn't done anything to Bill, but Razor tells her that she did a long time ago. By now, Missy is agitated enough by Razor to confront him directly, threatening to extract his vital organs and make soup out of them. Razor declares that she would never be so self-destructive before dropping his gun, stating that neither would he. Razor talks to Missy about his love of disguises, wondering if she still likes them; "Of course," he continues, "they are rather necessary when you happen to be... someone's former Prime Minister". He removes his mask, revealing himself as the Saxon Master to Missy's shock, now sporting a beard and grey hair. He greets his future self, smiles and remarks that he is very worried about his future before saying "give us a kiss".

In the surgery room, the Doctor opens a door, revealing a complete Mondasian Cyberman. Backing away, he confirms he means no harm and asks for Bill's location. To his horror, the Cyberman asserts that it is Bill. Missy and her predecessor enter, the latter surprising the Doctor as they profess they have made "the genesis of the Cybermen". Nardole runs away in fear, as the Doctor looks on in horror; his trial to test Missy's goodness has just been turned upside down in more ways than one. Not only has Missy reverted to her cruel self, the old Master is here too. Bill reaches towards the Doctor and, in the Mondasian Cyberman's stilted, sing-song voice states "I waited. I waited for you..." as she begins to cry beneath the mask.

Worldbuilding[[edit] | [edit source]]

Locations[[edit] | [edit source]]

After her heart is destroyed by Jorj, Bill is taken by a group of patients from Floor 0000 of the Mondasian colony ship to Floor 1056.
Upon arriving on Floor 1056, Bill is taken to the Conversion Theatre of the floor's hospital to be partially-converted into a patient. Ten years later, Bill is lured to the Conversion Theatre by "Razor" to be fully converted.
Razor says that "many years" before Bill's arrival at Floor 1056, there was an expedition to Floor 0507, the largest of the solar farms, but it did not return from its journey.

Cybermen[[edit] | [edit source]]

The patients are partially-converted Mondasian Cybermen.
The patients use voice synthesisers to talk.
The side handles of the colony ship's Mondasian Cybermen function as their emotional inhibitor.
The Doctor states that the Cybermen are part of a neural net.

Science[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Mondasian colony ship is reversing away from the gravitational pull of a black hole.
Due to the time dilation caused by the black hole, time is slower at the front of the colony ship than at the back. The Doctor calls this "Superman-gravity".

Biology[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor calls the heart the "most important [human] organ", and notes that humans only have one.
The Doctor says he has hidden arms.

Technology[[edit] | [edit source]]

Missy uses a sonic umbrella.
The Doctor's sonic screwdriver can be used as a marker pen.
The Mondasian colony ship is fitted with inertia lifts and CCTV cameras.
The colony ship is four-hundred miles long and one-hundred miles wide.
Missy, Nardole and Bill wear earpieces to communicate with the Doctor inside his TARDIS.
The colony ship's thrusters are on reverse.
Razor says to Bill that on most people, the chest unit looks like a vending machine.
The surgeon of Floor 1056's hospital uses a machine designated Medi-Ject 08 to operate on the patients.

TARDIS[[edit] | [edit source]]

The individual panels on the TARDIS control console can be taken off and moved around the entire control room, with a long cable connected to it.

Species[[edit] | [edit source]]

According to Missy, it is offensive to mistake Time Lords for humans.

Individuals[[edit] | [edit source]]

In his first incarnation, the Doctor had a "man crush" on the Master whilst at the Academy.
Missy refers to Bill and Nardole as "assistants", "pets", "snacks" and "disposables", rather than "companions".
Missy thinks fear is the emotion humans call spanking.
Jorj is the janitor on the Mondasian colony ship.

Nicknames and aliases[[edit] | [edit source]]

Missy uses the alias "Doctor Who" and gives Bill and Nardole the nicknames "Thing One" and "the Other One" respectively. Missy claims that the Doctor's real name is "Doctor Who", and that he chose it himself.
Missy calls Bill "exposition" and Nardole "comic relief", referring to two types of stock characters typically found in story writing. She calls them their genders.
Missy calls Jorj her stallion. Later, she mockingly calls him "Smurf".

Culture[[edit] | [edit source]]

Missy briefly dabs.
According to the Doctor, Time Lords do not have the fixation on gender and gender roles that humans do. Bill remarks that the Doctor's species call themselves "Time Lords", to which the Doctor responds "yeah shut up".
Nardole takes a selfie with the Doctor.
The creation of the Cybermen on Floor 1056 is codenamed "Operation Exodus".
The episode's title is taken from the first line of a poem by Andrew Marvell, called 'To His Coy Mistress'. The poem advocates for living life to the fullest, because death is always approaching.

Foods and beverages[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Doctor eats a packet of crisps labelled Bamon crisps.

Nardole eats a Jaffa Cake.
Razor makes tea for Bill.
Razor uses a can of baked beans to illustrate the Mondasian colony ship.
Razor cooks bacon.

Story notes[[edit] | [edit source]]

This episode's Aftershow on Doctor Who: The Fan Show.

The opening scene of the Doctor kneeling in the snow as he begins to regenerate was shot just two weeks before broadcast of the episode. The closing scene of The Doctor Falls was filmed at the same time. Filming occurred as part of production on Twice Upon a Time.
World Enough and Time marks the first appearance of the original design of the Mondasian Cybermen in a televised story since the Cybermen's debut story, The Tenth Planet in 1966.
This episode also marks the return of John Simm's Master, who last appeared in The End of Time in 2010. It also marks the first time that more than one incarnation of the Master has appeared on-screen together.
The Master's line comparing Operation Exodus to being more like a "Genesis of the Cybermen" is a reference to the 1975 Doctor Who story Genesis of the Daleks, which showed the Fourth Doctor being sent to the creation of the Daleks. Following the success of Genesis of the Daleks, a story entitled Genesis of the Cybermen was planned, but never produced (although this is just one of many later stories to take up the concept, a full list of which can be found at Genesis of the Cybermen). It is also a play on Operation Exodus and the biblical books of Exodus and Genesis. Perhaps coincidentally, Doctor Who Magazine had previously published a trilogy of stories entitled Exodus/Revelation!/Genesis!, which also featured the Cybermen. Also, Genesis and Revelation (but not Exodus) have been used as titles in the '...of the Daleks' formula.
For the first time in the television series (but far from without precedent across the franchise), the Doctor actually self-identifies using the name "Doctor Who". He has previously been referred to as such in the TV series (examples from across the franchise being far too numerous to list): in The War Machines, WOTAN says "Doctor Who is required" due to a script mistake; in The Highlanders, the Second Doctor introduces himself as "Doktor von Wer" (German for "Doctor [of] Who"); in The Underwater Menace, the Second Doctor signs a note with "Dr. W."; in The Dæmons, the Third Doctor is introduced as "the great wizard Qui Quae Quod" (Latin variations of "Who"); from Doctor Who and the Silurians to The Five Doctors, the Doctor's car Bessie's plate read WHO 1, and in Battlefield it read WHO 7, and in Rose, a website called Doctor Who? asks "Who is Doctor Who?". Although Missy claims that "Doctor Who" is the Doctor's real name, she also explicitly says she calls herself Doctor Who to head off the usual response heard when the Doctor introduces himself and people reply, "Doctor who?". She also states that he chose the name himself, suggesting she means "real name" in the sense of self-designation.
"Operation Exodus" was a continual concern for the inhabitants of Moonbase Alpha in the 1970s TV series Space: 1999. There, it was an evacuation plan for an orderly transfer of the Moon's inhabitants to another location - originally back to Earth but eventually adapted to any habitable body.
When the Master unmasks himself, an alarm bell in the background sounds in time with a drumbeat. The drumbeat is also heard when he enters the operating theatre alongside Missy. The Master has had an association with drums before in TV: Utopia, The Sound of Drums, Last of the Time Lords and The End of Time.
This episode, along with its following part, was ranked as Doctor Who Magazine readers' favourite Twelfth Doctor story in their 60th anniversary poll of 2023.^[1] The same set of polls, however, ranked the two-parter the readers' second favourite in a list of 37 finalists.^[2]

-Sometime prior, while walking through [[St Luke's courtyard|the courtyard]] at [[St Luke's University]], the Doctor decides to test if Missy can turn good, despite Bill's objections. They discuss it further in [[St Luke's kitchen]], Bill claims even Nardole will resist, but the Doctor assures he won't as he agreed "in his head", Nardole sheepishly agreeing. Their short dispute causes the Doctor to become emotional, due to Missy being the closest thing he has to someone else like him, something that amuses Nardole, who takes a selfie with him to chronicle the moment. Later that day, Bill and the Doctor eat together, the latter convincing her it is a good thing to let Missy try to prove herself as she was once his "man crush". After a brief discussion about the Time Lords and gender stereotypes, Bill confesses that Missy truly scares her. The Doctor tries to promise he can ensure Bill won't die but admits it can't be guaranteed. Regardless, he assures her that he will be there should things get out of hand.

-The plan set, the Doctor drops Missy, Bill and Nardole off on a [[Colony ship (World Enough and Time)|colony spaceship]] facing a black hole in the hopes of saving it. Missy introduces herself as 'Doctor Who' to the cameras, which she claims is the Doctor's real name despite the Doctor denying such. He soon becomes impatient with their progress, walking around the TARDIS eating crisps. Missy finally follows suit by deducing why a distress call was made. She also mocks Nardole and Bill's roles as "comic relief" and "exposition" given their genders. They are soon met by a blue-skinned humanoid named [[Jorj]] who demands to know which one of them is a human. Bill confesses, the Doctor exiting the TARDIS, taking charge as Jorj prepares to shoot Bill as creatures at the [[Floor 1056|bottom of the ship]] begin to come up in the elevators. Despite the Doctor's pleas, Jorj shoots Bill in the chest, mortally wounding her. [[Patient (World Enough and Time)|Figures with bandaged faces]] in hospital gowns collect her body, and, using a voice synthesiser, claim that they will fix her but shall not return. The Doctor trusts them, leaving a psychic message for Bill to wait for him when she awakes.

-Jorj threatens the Doctor when he attempts to scan the elevators but is threatened by Missy with her umbrella, who states only she is allowed to kill the Doctor and that it will only make the Doctor cross. Once things settle down, the Doctor explains that, due to the lower part of the ship being further away from the black hole, time moves faster than the one they are in, the [[Floor 0000|top floor]], noting how lifts slowed down when they neared the top due to the difference in gravitational pull, using a red [[marker pen|pen]] in [[the Doctor's sonic screwdriver|his sonic screwdriver]] to illustrate. He also states that the creatures on board the ship are the descendants of the crew who went to the lower part of the ship when it got dragged towards a black hole and needed to be reversed, as decades have passed for them even though it has only been two days for Jorj. Jorj admits his confusion; the Doctor mocks him for his lack of knowledge despite supposedly going to "space school", causing the man to reveal he is only a janitor. The Doctor then knocks out Jorj using [[Venusian aikido]] so that he and the others can follow Bill. Nardole, stating it has been ten minutes for them, wonders how long Bill has been living below, to which the Doctor replies he hopes they aren't too late.

-Meanwhile, at the base of the ship, Bill awakes in a [[Hospital (World Enough and Time)|hospital]] ward with a cybernetic heart fused into her chest, too shocked to look at it. A feral caretaker looks at her before running off. Coming to her senses, she briefly sees a vision of the Doctor telling her to wait for him only for him to vision.

Months go by, Bill witnessing how the Doctor raised his eyebrow for a week and braced to explain the situation to his associates.

 On one particular day, she contemplates leaving the hospital only for it to alarm the other patients on the ward, unnerving her enough to stay. After being there just over a year, she eventually convinces Razor to take her out of the hospital, where he reveals to her that the patients are being converted in preparation for "[[Operation Exodus]]" as the humans' finite [[lifespan]] cannot survive the journey back up to the top.

By now, Missy is agitated enough by Razor to confront him directly, threatening to extract his vital organs and make soup out of them. Razor declares that she would never be so self-destructive before dropping his gun, stating that neither would he.

+{{video|Brian Minchin Talks World Enough And Time - The Aftershow - Doctor Who The Fan Show|thumb|This episode's ''Aftershow'' on ''[[Doctor Who: The Fan Show]]''.}}
-* The [[read-through]] for ''World Enough and Time'' took place on [[21 February (production)|21 February]] [[2017 (production)|2017]], and [[principal photography|filming]] took place between [[24 February (production)|24 February]] and [[28 March (production)|28 March]].
+* The opening scene of the Doctor kneeling in the snow as he begins to regenerate was shot just two weeks before broadcast of the episode. The closing scene of ''[[The Doctor Falls (TV story)|The Doctor Falls]]'' was filmed at the same time. Filming occurred as part of production on ''[[Twice Upon a Time (TV story)|Twice Upon a Time]]''.
-* This episode marks the first on-screen appearance of the original design of the [[Cyberman (Mondas)|Mondasian Cybermen]] since the [[First Doctor]] television story, ''[[The Tenth Planet (TV story)|The Tenth Planet]]'' in 1966.
+* ''World Enough and Time'' marks the first appearance of the original design of the [[CyberMondan|Mondasian Cybermen]] in a televised story since the [[Cyberman|Cybermen]]'s debut story, ''[[The Tenth Planet (TV story)|The Tenth Planet]]'' in [[1966 (releases)|1966]].
-* This episode marks the return of [[John Simm]]'s {{Simm|n=Master}}, who last appeared in ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]'' in 2010.
+* This episode also marks the return of [[John Simm]]'s {{Simm|n=Master}}, who last appeared in ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]'' in [[2010 (releases)|2010]]. It also marks the first time that more than one incarnation of [[the Master]] has appeared on-screen together.
-* This episode marks the first time that more than one incarnation of [[the Master]] has appeared on-screen.
+* The Master's line comparing [[Operation Exodus]] to being more like a "''Genesis'' of the Cybermen" is a reference to the 1975 ''[[Doctor Who]]'' story ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'', which showed the [[Fourth Doctor]] being sent to the creation of the [[Dalek]]s. Following the success of ''Genesis of the Daleks'', a story entitled ''[[Genesis of the Cybermen (TV story)|Genesis of the Cybermen]]'' was planned, but never produced (although this is just one of many later stories to take up the concept, a full list of which can be found at [[Genesis of the Cybermen]]). It is also a play on Operation Exodus and the biblical books of Exodus and Genesis. Perhaps coincidentally, ''[[Doctor Who Magazine]]'' had previously published a trilogy of stories entitled ''[[Exodus (comic story)|Exodus]]''/''[[Revelation! (comic story)|Revelation!]]''/''[[Genesis! (comic story)|Genesis!]]'', which also featured the [[Cyberman|Cybermen]]. Also, ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis]]'' and ''[[Revelation of the Daleks (TV story)|Revelation]]'' (but not Exodus) have been used as titles in the '...of the Daleks' formula.
-* The Master's line comparing the scenario to being more like a "''Genesis'' of the Cybermen" is a reference to the 1975 ''[[Doctor Who]]'' story ''[[Genesis of the Daleks (TV story)|Genesis of the Daleks]]'', which showed the [[Fourth Doctor]] being sent to the creation of the [[Dalek]]s. Following the success of ''Genesis of the Daleks'', a story entitled ''[[Genesis of the Cybermen (TV story)|Genesis of the Cybermen]]'' was planned, but never produced.
+* For the first time in the television series (but far from without precedent across the franchise), the Doctor actually [[Aliases of the Doctor|self-identifies]] using the name "[[The Question|Doctor Who]]". He has previously been referred to as such in the TV series (examples from across the franchise being far too numerous to list): in ''[[The War Machines (TV story)|The War Machines]]'', [[WOTAN]] says "Doctor Who is required" due to a script mistake; in ''[[The Highlanders (TV story)|The Highlanders]]'', the [[Second Doctor]] introduces himself as "Doktor von Wer" ([[German language|German]] for "Doctor [of] Who"); in ''[[The Underwater Menace (TV story)|The Underwater Menace]]'', the Second Doctor signs a note with "Dr. W."; in ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'', the [[Third Doctor]] is introduced as "the great wizard Qui Quae Quod" ([[Latin]] variations of "Who"); from ''[[Doctor Who and the Silurians (TV story)|Doctor Who and the Silurians]]'' to ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]'', the Doctor's [[car]] [[Bessie]]'s plate read ''[[WHO 1]]'', and in ''[[Battlefield (TV story)|Battlefield]]'' it read ''[[WHO 7]]'', and in ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'', a website called [[Doctor Who?]] asks "Who is Doctor Who?". Although Missy claims that "Doctor Who" is the Doctor's real name, she also explicitly says she calls herself Doctor Who to head off the usual response heard when the Doctor introduces himself and people reply, "Doctor who?". She also states that he chose the name himself, suggesting she means "real name" in the sense of self-designation.
-* For the first time in the show's history, the Doctor actually [[Aliases of the Doctor|self-identifies]] using the name "[[The Question|Doctor Who]]". However, it does seem like a bit of an in-joke. He has previously been referred to as such: in ''[[The War Machines (TV story)|The War Machines]]'', [[WOTAN]] says "Doctor Who is required" (due to a script mistake); in ''[[The Highlanders (TV story)|The Highlanders]]'', the [[Second Doctor]] introduces himself as "Doktor von Wer" ([[German language|German]] for "Doctor [of] Who"); in ''[[The Underwater Menace (TV story)|The Underwater Menace]]'', the Second Doctor signs a note with "Dr. W."; in ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'', the [[Third Doctor]] introduces himself as "the great wizard Qui Quae Quod" ([[Latin]] variations of "Who"); from ''[[Doctor Who and the Silurians (TV story)|Doctor Who and the Silurians]]'' to ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]'' and in ''[[What He Wants... (comic story)|What He Wants...]]'', the Doctor's [[car]] [[Bessie]]'s plate read ''[[WHO 1]]'', in ''[[Battlefield (TV story)|Battlefield]]'' it read ''[[WHO 7]]'', and in ''[[The Dying Days (novel)|The Dying Days]]'' it read ''[[WHO 8]]''; in ''[[The Kingmaker (audio story)|The Kingmaker]]'', the [[Fourth Doctor]] wrote a series of children's books accidentally published as ''[[Doctor Who Discovers]]''; in ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'', a website called ''[[whoisdoctorwho.co.uk]]'' asks "Who is Doctor Who?"; and in ''[[Fogbound (comic story)|Fogbound]]'', [[the Master]] addresses a [[postcard]] to the Third Doctor as "Dr. Who". Although Missy claims that "Doctor Who" is the Doctor's real name, she also explicitly says she calls herself Doctor Who to head off the usual response heard when the Doctor introduces himself and people reply, "Doctor who?"
+* "Operation Exodus" was a continual concern for the inhabitants of Moonbase ''Alpha'' in the 1970s TV series ''Space: 1999''. There, it was an evacuation plan for an orderly transfer of the Moon's inhabitants to another location - originally back to Earth but eventually adapted to any habitable body.

-* The episode is one of few instances of the use of profanity, with Missy saying the word "bitch".
 * When the Master unmasks himself, an alarm bell in the background sounds in time with [[The Drumming|a drumbeat]]. The drumbeat is also heard when he enters the operating theatre alongside Missy. The Master has had an association with drums before in [[TV]]: ''[[Utopia (TV story)|Utopia]]'', ''[[The Sound of Drums (TV story)|The Sound of Drums]]'', ''[[Last of the Time Lords (TV story)|Last of the Time Lords]]'' and ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]''.
-* According to the clocks shown in the various rooms of the hospital, time on the bottom floor of the ship is approximately 149283.44 times faster than on the top of the ship.{{fact}}
