Notes
- David Tennant and Russell T Davies would doubtless be horrified at the depiction of the Doctor in this story. Not only does the Doctor deem it "good" that his friends arm themselves with revolvers, he ends the threat by killing Chintor with a double-barreled shotgun. Nevertheless, the story does make a token gesture towards the Doctor's usual anti-gun stance by noting, "The gun was necessary, but he hated to use firearms."
Continuity
- The Doctor is described as tapping his lapel cat in this story.
Timeline
- This story takes place after DWAN: Beauty and the Beast
- This story takes place before DWAN: Davarrk's Experiment
