Notes

The original cover.

• This story was recorded on 17 July 2012.
• The original cover of the audio put up on the Big Finish website illustrated the Doctor's TARDIS' original form as a pyramid. The image was altered after The Name of the Doctor, with the pyramid replaced with that episode's depiction of the ship's natural form.

Continuity

• Susan enters another time capsule, but the Doctor does not follow. He speaks briefly with somebody outside, before pulling Susan out and entering another parked alongside.
