  • As the Brigadier is depicted in the illustrations with a moustache rather than being clean-shaven, as his 1983 self was in Mawdryn Undead, this story would appear to take place at some unspecified point after The Five Doctors — even though Tegan is clearly shown to be sporting her hairstyle and outfit from Arc of Infinity to Enlightenment.
