  • The Doctor implies that an earlier incarnation of himself had visited Piir two hundred years in the past. It is not known which incarnation it was, save that it was one that was 'almost certainly sans [without a] tie', 'wouldn't have been seen dead' wearing a bow tie, and was 'nearly seen dead'.
    • The latter comment implies that it may have been either the Third or Tenth Doctor who travelled while dying from radiation sickness. However, the Third Doctor wore a bow tie during his tenure (except for his arrival back at UNIT before regeneration) and the Tenth often wore a conventional tie.
  • Together, "Stem," the name of the villainous preacher, and "Ra," the name of monsters in Piir folklore, are an anagram of "Master". The Master was fond of using anagrams in his aliases, such as "Mister Saxon" for "Master No. Six". While Preacher Stem does not turn out to be the Master, this may indicate he was intended to be at some point; figures of religious authority are one of the Master's more common disguises, such as the vicar of Devil's End.
