Liberation (TV story)

Story notes

• Although it was reported Liberation would air on 4 April on Disney XD, The Korven was broadcast instead of the reported rebroadcast of Regeneration and The Bounty Hunter aired in Liberation's place. Liberation wouldn't be broadcast for six months until it finally aired on Disney XD on 9 October. [1]
• K9 recommends "rapid movement in the opposite direction of the xenomorph", a reference to the Alien film franchise, whose titular aliens are known as xenomorphs.
• A non-canonical charity piece published in LifeDeath, featuring the Fourth Doctor, was also called "Liberation."

Production errors

• When Thorne throws Darius into the cell with the alien he calls "Mr. Wiffy", Darius' reply of "You're not wrong" is obviously dubbed, as his mouth doesn't move when he says it.
