Notes

  • While not stated in the story, the clocks went forwards on 27 March 2005, if British Summertime is the same in the DWU as it is in the real world.
    • If the date holds true, it means that this story is actually the sixth in the UNIT Press Briefings, chronologically.

Continuity

  • to be added
