Hence one of the reasons she joined in saying the Doctor's name, and shot the Master after he was defeated. | * Lucy, who was very loving towards her husband in ''[[The Sound of Drums]]'', in this episode appeared to be very afraid of him, and she even had marks around her eye.

* The Toclafane's origin is similar to that of the Somnus Foundation in [[AUDIO]]: ''[[Singularity (audio story)|Singularity]]''.
