- "I trust that man to the end of the universe, and actually, we've been."
- With Donna trapped in a digital alternative reality, the Doctor and River Song continue their way through the dangerous library, trying to avoid the shadows. Can the squabbling pair save the day? Will the Doctor work out why River Song knows him so well and realise why he would give her his sonic screwdriver?
- “Look at her! Look at her eyes! She killed Joe and she killed Claude and we're next."
- While Donna relaxes by the pool, the Doctor takes a life-threatening trip across the diamond planet of Midnight. Things start of innocently enough, but when the Crusader 50 breaks down on an unchartered part of the planet, an invisible force rips off the driver's cabin, enters the vehicle and possesses one of the passengers!
Notable Information
- Midnight is the first story since Genesis of the Daleks in 1975 not to feature a mention of the TARDIS.
Pyrovile were originally to be called pyrovillaxian, then Pyrovellian then finally Pyrovile.
- In early storylines CAL was a young boy.
- The children (Josh and Ella) in CAL’s dream world were named after writer Steven Moffat’s son and his friend.
- Other names considered for K9 were ‘Pluto’ and ‘FIDO’. The rust effect in School Reunion, on K9 was actually a sprinkling of cocoa powder.
- Midnight featured a craft called the Crusader 50 as this was originally planned to be the fiftieth new Doctor Who story shown on TV.
- Crusader rescue vehicles travel approximately twice as fast as the speed of the coaches, travelling an average of two hundred fifty kilometres per hour, judging by the estimated arrival time of ‘half an hour’ according to Driver Joe.
