Behind the scenes
- Skynet is very similar to WOTAN. Both are self-aware supercomputers that create robotic servants to take over the world. Also, WOTAN's War Machines are reminiscent of the T-1s from Terminator 3. Although the War Machine is simpler in design, the two have a similar shape: both have firearms mounted onto the top-left and right on their structures and numerical designations can be seen on the T-1.
- The Cell 114 sleeper agents in TV: Sleeper share similarities with the T-1000 in the Terminator movies: both are infiltrators who are able to turn their hands into stabbing weapons. The Torchwood The Official Magazine Yearbook (2008) says that James Moran was inspired by the Terminator movies in creating Cell 114.
