Myths
- It suggested amongst the internet community that Adam Mitchell would return in this episode. (It was false.)

Filming Locations
to be added
Discontinuity, Plot Holes, Errors
- On the vials containing blood samples from all Torchwood members, some of the names are wrong. When Jack grabs them (after Ianto confesses to being a serial killer), four labels are visible and two have the first and last names reversed. From left to right, they read: "Cooper, Gwen"; "Toshiko, Sato"; "Harper, Owen"; and "Ianto, Jones".
- Rhys Williams shows no sign of injury following the previous story.Opening dialouge clearly shows that Gwen and Rhys have been to France, allowing Adam to infiltrate Torchwood, meaning several weeks would have passed.
- Although all the members of Torchwood takes Retcon to forget Adam, Rhys Williams does not despite having briefly met Adam. Adam did not touch Rhys, therefore he wasn't a permenant part of Rhys' memories.
- The obvious error of Jack's parents calling him Jack is avoided - but it is clear that the writer is working too hard to do so as they call him "son" throughout.
- How can Adam be seen on the videos if he needs to make himself part of their mermories to be real? shouldn't the videos just show no-one?
Continuity
- Jack first mentioned his home, the Boeshane Peninsula, in DW: Last of the Time Lords.
DVD releases
- This story along with the rest of Torchwood Series 2 was released in a complete series boxset.
