Notes
to be added
Continuity
- The Doctor implies that an earlier incarnation of himself had visited Piir two hundred years in the past. It is not known which incarnation it was, save that it was one that was 'almost certainly sans [without a] tie', 'wouldn't have been seen dead' wearing a bow tie, and was 'nearly seen dead'.
- The latter comment implies that it may have been either the Third or Tenth Doctor who travelled while dying from radiation sickness. However, the Third Doctor wore a bow tie during his tenure (except for his arrival back at UNIT before regeneration) and the Tenth often wore a conventional tie.
