  • Osgood and some of her colleagues intend to see Interstellar.
  • Clara used to drive a Mini.
  • Rassilon cubes were devised by Rassilon as a form of incarceration. The Doctor was once locked in one and it took him six months to break free. Kate calls it a Rubik's cube.

  • The Doctor has spare sonic screwdrivers and gives one to Clara.
