Story notes

  • Much like the first episode, The Halloween Apocalypse, shared its broadcast date with its setting of 31 October, this episode does much the same. Both the broadcast date and the setting are 21 November, however the primary setting for the episode is 1967.
  • This episode is the second episode of Doctor Who to feature a mid-credits scene, after Death in Heaven. The show also previously featured a post-credit scene in Face the Raven.
    • The mid-credit scene was given a special glitching effect as it started and as it ended.
    • The Doctor Who theme also received a special variation during the credits. It returns to normal during the Next Time segment.
  • This was the first episode of Doctor Who: Flux to not feature Karvanista, Swarm or Joseph Williamson. Inston-Vee Vinder is also absent for a majority of the episode, only appearing in the mid-credits scene.
  • This episode marks the first time in the show that a victim of a Weeping Angel has been visibly shown to be sent back in time, appearing to fade away when touching the Angel.
  • This episode marks the first time in the shows history to show a victim of a Weeping Angel being killed on-screen, with the characters in question shattering into rock debris.
