References
Planets
- Calderon Beta is described by the Doctor as "Boring. Planet of the Chip Shops". However it is home to a four hundred foot tall tree "growing out of a clifftop on the north side of a mountain in the middle of the sea". At 12:12am on21 September2360, you can see more stars in the sky from the top of the tree than in any other point in history. The Doctor notes that "You could read a book by it."
TARDIS
- The wardobe is now "first right, second left, just past the Helter Skelter." This is significantly shorter (not to mention easier to remember) than the directions the Ninth Doctor gave Rose Tyler during DW: The Unquiet Dead.
Story notes
- First of a two-part story, concluded in Last Night.
- This is the shortest of the Night and the Doctor to feature the Doctor, coming in at 2 minutes and 15 seconds. The shortest overall is Up All Night, which is just under 2 minutes.
- This is also the only Night and the Doctor short to feature scenes outside of the TARDIS.
- The footage of the TARDIS flying through the solar storm is originally from The Rebel Flesh.

Filming locations

Production errors
- When River opens the diary, ostensibly for the first time, you can see some of the pages have already been written in.
- River had written notes in the book before being forced to kill The Doctor and her sentence at Stormcage, as seen at the end of Closing Time.
Continuity
- The first River Song is serving her first night of "Twelve thousand consecutive life sentences" in Stormcage.
- Second appearance (in chronological order) of River Song's diary. Here, the Doctor instructs her on its use and purpose. (DW: Silence in the Library, et al.)
- Possibly the earliest chronological occurrence, from River's perspective, of the Doctor coming to River's rescue in the TARDIS, although on this occasion it is unintentional. (DW: Silence in the Library, DW: The Time of Angels, DW: The Pandorica Opens)
