* The reprise of the cliffhanger scene from ''[[Doomsday (TV story)|Doomsday]]'' had to be refilmed for ''The Runaway Bride'' as the change of [[cinematographer]]s resulted in a discontinuity in terms of lighting between the earlier footage and that shot for the special.<ref>[[DCOM]]: ''The Runaway Bride''</ref> | * The reprise of the cliffhanger scene from ''[[Doomsday (TV story)|Doomsday]]'' had to be refilmed for ''The Runaway Bride'' as the change of [[cinematographer]]s resulted in a discontinuity in terms of lighting between the earlier footage and that shot for the special.<ref>[[DCOM]]: ''The Runaway Bride''</ref> | ||
* The "TARDIS car chase" sequence was the first part of the episode to be publicly screened when it was shown at the ''[[Doctor Who: A Celebration]]'' ''[[Children in Need]]'' concert on [[19 November (releases)|19 November]] 2006. However it wasn't included in [[BBC Radio Wales]] live simulcast of the event, so was only seen by the concert's audience. It wouldn't be seen by the wider public until its inclusion in ''[[Music and Monsters (CON episode)|Music and Monsters]]'' broadcast on [[BBC One]] several hours before the Christmas Special itself.{{fact}} | * The "TARDIS car chase" sequence was the first part of the episode to be publicly screened when it was shown at the ''[[Doctor Who: A Celebration]]'' ''[[Children in Need]]'' concert on [[19 November (releases)|19 November]] 2006.

* Unlike previous ''Doctor Who'' aliens, The Empress of the Racnoss was not created using [[CGI]]. This decision was made quite early on so that the Empress could fully interact with the other characters. Weighing half a tonne, the main body was like a giant puppet and was worked by control rods. It was operated by four technicians as well as by [[Sarah Parish]] herself. When inside the costume, she was positioned as if on a see-saw so she could move the body up and down simply by shifting her weight slightly. | * Unlike previous ''Doctor Who'' aliens, The Empress of the Racnoss was not created using [[CGI]].

* In the DVD commentary it is confirmed that a scene filmed, but cut from broadcast, would have continued on from Donna pointing out a piece of Rose's clothing by showing the Doctor angrily throwing it through the open TARDIS doors and into space. Executive producer [[Julie Gardner]] explained to [[David Tennant]] in the commentary that it was cut as being too melodramatic. The cutscene was not included with the other deleted scenes on the DVD release. | * In the DVD commentary it is confirmed that a scene filmed, but cut from broadcast, would have continued on from Donna pointing out a piece of Rose's clothing by showing the Doctor angrily throwing it through the open TARDIS doors and into space.
