Incarnations
- Whilst under possession by the Cyber-Planner, the Doctor mimics the Ninth Doctor's accent and catchphrase of "Fantastic", as well as the Tenth Doctor's of "Allons-y".
- During the taking over of the Cybermite, the Doctor let them see the regeneration power, by showing him his previous incarnations.
Games
- The game of chess was invented by the Time Lords.
Cultural references from the real world
- Porridge is inside an undefeated "automated" chess player. This is very similar to real-world the Turk, who was too exhibited as an undefeatable chess-playing machine, but was actually controlled by a man inside.
Story notes
- The episode's title, Nightmare in Silver, is reminiscent of Silver Nemesis, in that, in both cases, the "Silver" is referring to Cybermen.
- A working title for the episode was The Last Cyberman.[1]
