Characters

References

  • Sarah mentions a UNIT reunion party where she and Mike saw Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart.
  • Brendan Richards, the former ward of Sarah's aunt Lavinia Smith, is studying at the University of Cambridge.
  • The country house where Sarah and Mike are staying is owned by the Doctor and is built over a time fissure.
  • K9 destroys the Master's time vector filter.
  • K9 claims that is shaped like a dog because "the human ego requires a familiar reference point to aid in adjusting to new concepts. Animal forms are comforting to the majority of humans."
  • K9 runs on an electron-fusion nuclear battery.
  • Though K9 usually recharges himself when necessary, Sarah Jane has occasionally done so by clipping jump leads to his antennae.
  • "The Count" drives a Mercedes.

Notes

  • David A. McIntee's description of Count Marius Castillo matches his description of the Master in the novel First Frontier.
  • The stories in Decalog 2 have a common theme of homes owned or acquired by the Doctor. The home in this story is the house which Sarah and Mike are investigating.

According to one account, the Master had the appearance of Roger Delgado while on Gallifrey. According to another, he had Anthony Ainley's likeness. According to another one, the one with James Dreyfus's appearance was the incarnation who ran away from Gallifrey.

Divided Loyalties, A Brief History of Time Lords and The Legions of Death feature, or otherwise acknowledge, the War Chief, but in the process contradicted the notion put forward by other stories that he was an incarnation of the Master.

One account suggests that the incarnation portrayed by Roger Delgado may be the same as the one portrayed by Peter Pratt while some others distinguish them.

According to one account, the incarnation portrayed by Gordon Tipple is the one portrayed by Anthony Ainley, while some others state that the Ainley one was already lost by then.

While fighting to extend his life at the end of his regeneration cycle, many bodies were possessed by the Beevers incarnation, but all kept somehow reverting to his real being until he finally regenerated into the MacQueen one. Hence, these sections cannot be strictly chronological
