Rumours
- It is rumoured that either the Timoreen, the Ha'rik, or the Skarkish will appear -- primarily because these were all listed as "new aliens" to appear in Series 5[10], and have not appeared in the first 10 episodes (although Ha'rik has also been rumoured to be an unused name for the Eknodine inside Mrs Poggit).
- This episode will be the one that features the Blue Peter Competition TARDIS console. It is thought that, considering the content of this story's comic strip counterpart and the details for the aforementioned competition, that perhaps the TARDIS jumps a time track and is unable to get back to the Doctor's time (perhaps a larger time track), so the Doctor will begin the lengthy operation of building a makeshift TARDIS to find the original, incorporating the Blue Peter winner's design.
- As this episode is before the finale, it may have a foreshadowing (Like in Fear Her and The Waters of Mars) or link right into the finale (Like Utopia and Turn Left).
- It is likely that this episode will lead directly into the next as Claudio played by Marcus O' Donovan is listed to appear in both DW:The Lodger and DW:The Pandorica Opens.
