Notes
- This story marks the first appearance of the Nestene Consciousness and the Autons in an audio drama.
- This audio drama was recorded on 14 August 2007 at The Moat Studios.
- In this story, Lucie makes specific reference to not being able to read Russian, an example of the apparently inconsistently limited functionality of the translation circuit.
- The story was broadcast on BBC Radio 7 on 2 November 2008.
Continuity
- During his second incarnation, the Doctor previously visited Uzbekistan in August 1919 in the company of Jamie McCrimmon and Zoe Heriot. (AUDIO: The Memory Cheats)
- Sentient Autons like the ones seen in this story would later appear in TV: The Pandorica Opens.
- The Doctor mentions the Auton meteorites that fell to Earth in the 1970s. (TV: Spearhead from Space)
- The events of this audio are still in the Doctor's memory when he is in his tenth incarnation. (PROSE: Autonomy)
