Notes

• The title of the episode was revealed on the official Doctor Who Twitter account on 31 March 2024.
• Parts of the script of this episode were used in auditions for Ruby Sunday. The script for self-tapes from potential actors were truncated from the scripts of this episode and the next; however, the longer script for in-person auditions in London was adapted solely from this.
