* [[Dodo Chaplet]] takes up a position as a [[piano]] teacher, on the condition that she not have to play, or hear [[Steven Taylor]] sing, "[[The Ballad of the Last Chance Saloon]]". Also, Steven is surprised that the Doctor wishes to holiday in [[Russia]], since they have so recently holidayed in [[Tombstone, Arizona|Tombstone]], [[Arizona]]. Taken together, the two facts suggest that the events of ''Mother Russia'' occur relatively soon after those of [[TV]]: ''[[The Gunfighters (TV story)|The Gunfighters]]''. | * [[File:Mother Russia clean.jpg|thumb|220x220px|Textless cover art]][[Dodo Chaplet]] takes up a position as a [[piano]] teacher, on the condition that she does not have to play, or hear [[Steven Taylor]] sing, "[[The Ballad of the Last Chance Saloon]]".

* The Doctor's interest in [[Napoléon Bonaparte]] was no doubt fueled by the fact that, as [[Susan Foreman]] once said, the [[French Revolution]] was her grandfather's favourite period of [[Earth]] history — and the fact that he narrowly missed meeting Bonaparte the last time that he was in the era. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Reign of Terror]]'') The [[Second Doctor]] would later have an extended encounter with Bonaparte ([[PROSE]]: ''[[World Game (novel)|World Game]]'') and the [[Third Doctor]] would claim to have advised the Emperor that "an army marches on its stomach."
