'''''{{StoryTitle}}''''' is the first of two [[BBV Productions|BBV]] audios featuring [[Lalla Ward]] and [[John Leeson]]. The series, ''[[Adventures in a Pocket Universe]]'', is commonly mistaken for a sequel to ''[[Warriors' Gate]]''.  However, BBV had no licence from the [[British Broadcasting Corporation]] to produce this series.  Their only licence came from [[Bob Baker]] and [[Dave Martin]] for the use of the general concept of [[K9]]. Thus, K9 appears legally, but it is not any version of K9 seen on television, since ''this'' K9 is depicted as travelling with a woman named "[[The Mistress (The Choice)|The Mistress]]" in [[Ecto-Space]] — not [[Romana II]] in [[E-Space]].

* Among the many near-references to ''[[Warriors' Gate]]'' are ones to "[[Ecto-Space]]" and a "people enslaved".  ''[[Doctor Who]]'' fans will immediately translate these as [[E-Space]] and the [[Tharil]]s, but the script actually refers to neither, for legal reasons.
* The story is intended as a sequel to ''[[Warriors' Gate (TV story)|Warriors' Gate]]''; understood through that lens, [[the Mistress (The Choice)|the Mistress]] is [[Romana II|Romana]], [[Ecto-Space]] is [[E-Space]], and the enslaved natives are the [[Tharil]]s. However, BBV did not obtain the legal rights for these characters and concepts, so alternative names were used.
