- Peri previously visited 16th century England in the company of the Fifth Doctor (BFA: The Kingmaker) and would later do so again in the company of the Sixth Doctor (BFA: Recorded Time).
- The Doctor and Peri refer to their recent trip to 19th century England. (DW: The Mark of the Rani)
- The Doctor tells Marlowe that he has met demons in his time. Though he does not go into detail, he is presumably referring to his encounters with Azal in DW: The Dæmons and the Mara in DW: Kinda, DW: Snakedance and BFA: The Cradle of the Snake. He would subsequently encounter two other self-described demons, namely the Destroyer in DW: Battlefield and the Beast in DW: The Satan Pit.
- While exploring London in 1590, the Doctor points out St Paul's Cathedral to Peri, who correctly states that it is the Old St. Paul's, which would be burnt down in the Great Fire of London in 1666. The Doctor remarks, "Well, let's not go into that" and changes the subject. His fifth incarnation played a major role in starting that fire in DW: The Visitation. Ironically, the Fourth Doctor, who had arrived shortly before his future self's departure, was wrongly accused of starting the fire only hours later. (DW: Pyramids of Mars, ST: The Republican's Story) A similar exchange would later occur between the Doctor and Evelyn Smythe in BFA: The Marian Conspiracy.
- Both the First and the Third Doctors referred to being imprisoned in the Tower of London (DW: The Sensorites, DW: The Mind of Evil) whereas the Fifth Doctor and Nyssa suffered the same fate in the late 17th century, charges of forgery levelled against them by Sir Isaac Newton.
