Boney M were a band, who, by the 1970s, had written a song about Grigori Rasputin. (PROSE: The Wages of Sin)
After capturing the Thirteenth Doctor, the Spy Master, who had been posing as the Russian mystic Grigori Rasputin, taunted his captive by dancing to an upbeat disco tune. It included the chorus "Ra-Ra-Rasputin Lover of the Russian queen / There was a cat that really was gone / Ra-Ra-Rasputin Russia's greatest love machine / It was a shame how he carried on". (TV: The Power of the Doctor)
Clare Keightley jokingly called the skeleton in Chronotis' study "Boney M". (PROSE: Shada)
Behind the scenes
- The Boney M song "Rasputin", referenced in The Wages of Sin, would have played a bigger role in the unproduced TV story How The Monk Got His Habit, which was intended to reveal the Meddling Monk's first act of meddling with time as having been forcing the real Grigori Rasputin to listen to the song.
