Story notes
This story was recorded on 11th August 2009.
Continuity
- The Doctor and the Brigadier are still not back on pleasant terms after the bombing of the Silurian base on Wenley Moor (DW: Doctor Who and the Silurians)
- Liz comments that her dissatisfaction in her role in UNIT was because she felt all she had to do was tell the Doctor he was brilliant and pass him his test tubes, which she later told the Brigadier, because he uses this to convince the Doctor to accept Jo Grant as his new assistant in Terror of the Autons.
- The Sergeant who dies in the story is stated to be Benton's immediate predecessor, thus setting this story before The Ambassadors of Death. Liz comments wryly upon the oddly British practice employed by UNIT of "hot sweet tea" salving all wounds.
- The Doctor is said to still be deeply offended at being imprisoned on Earth. The older Liz telling the story is aware that there are "half a dozen" other incarnations of the Doctor which followed "hers".
