* The outtake in which [[Tom Baker]] barks at K9 "You never f*** ing know the answer when it's important" is sometimes described as an outtake from actual filming, and sometimes is used as an illustration of Baker's temperament on the set. In reality — as revealed from an actual viewing of the clip — it was simply a joke that occurred during a taped rehearsal (as evidenced by the fact [[Mary Tamm]] is not in full costume, is wearing her off-screen glasses and has her hair up in rollers). | * The outtake in which [[Tom Baker]] barks at K9 "You never f***ing know the answer when it's important" is sometimes described as an outtake from actual filming, and sometimes is used as an illustration of Baker's temperament on the set.

This is openly contradicted by Tamm in interviews and the 2007/09 DVD featurette "There's Something About Mary" in which she states she chose to leave because she was no longer satisfied with the character of Romana and would have returned to film a regeneration if she'd been invited. | * A longstanding myth holds that Mary Tamm revealed to the production team that she was pregnant and this led to her resignation during or after production of ''Armageddon Factor''.
