Story notes
- The total length of the serial will be 45 minutes, with BBC Two and BBC HD scheduled to broadcast the "omnibus" version.[2]
- Dreamland is an alternate name for the secretive Area 51 U.S. Air Force base in Groom Lake, Nevada. It is the subject of many conspiracy theories, some of which involve the alleged Roswell crash debris and bodies being studied there. It is unknown if Area 51 will tie into the story, however, as it is set in Roswell, New Mexico.

Rumours
- There are rumours that this animated adventure will involve the Tenth Doctor being trapped in a dream-like place, hence the title, wherein he will encounter each of his past incarnations, taking advantage of the animated format of the adventure to bring back Doctor's played by actors who are now deceased. The deceased Doctor's voices will be performed using voice actors or, where possible, using archived audio clips. This will also be how actor's who do not wish to return to the show (a rumoured example being Christopher Eccleston) will be included in the special, as the aforementioned 'hold-outs' have agreed that their likenesses can be used in the adventure. As of July 2009, this has not been confirmed or denied by the BBC. It should be noted that such a scenario (the Tenth Doctor meeting visions of his former selves) already played out in the comic series IDW: The Forgotten.
- Cassie Rice is thought to be the Doctor's daughter in disguise, but this is mere speculation based on the fact that Georgia Moffett plays both characters.

International broadcast
At present, there has been no indication whether Dreamland will be broadcast, or made available online (officially) outside the UK. Most original video content on the BBC website is "geolocked" and restricted to UK users only. It is assumed Dreamland will be likewise restricted. The previous animated serial, The Infinite Quest, was never broadcast in North America or Australia, and remained unavailable there until its DVD release (more than a year later for North America). It remains to be seen if Dreamland will experience the same release.
