Behind the Scenes
- Though the name, Romana II, has not appeared in the series itself, fans and others accept this as the semi-official name of the second incarnation of Romana.
- Bill Baggs Video (BBV) produced two original audio adventures which featured Lalla Ward as Romana II, with K-9. Since had the rights to K-9 but not Romana or E-Space, she has no name other than "Mistress" in the audio plays, which the characters merely refers to E-Space as "the pocket universe".
- Although a relationship was never explicitly shown or intended by the writers, many fans have found the signs of a romantic relationship particularly evident in the story City of Death, perhaps reflecting the real-life romance between Tom Baker and Lalla Ward which reportedly blossomed during the production of that story and led to their brief marriage.
