*The Doctor says that the Daleks are dependant on rationality and logic, whereas Daleks are actually driven by Xenophobia and race hatred (it seems an '''especially''' odd statement to make as one of Remembrance's core themes is racial purity). ''The Doctor is obviously referring to their battle strategies, not to their psychology.'' | *The Doctor says that the Daleks are dependant on rationality and logic, whereas Daleks are actually driven by Xenophobia and race hatred (it seems an '''especially''' odd statement to make as one of Remembrance's core themes is racial purity).

*It is strongly suggested that the events of this story take place on or about 23 November, 1963, to coincide with the first broadcast of ''Doctor Who'' in real life, yet no reference occurs to the assassination of [[John F. Kennedy]] the day prior, or the subsequent death of Lee Harvey Oswald, both of which would have been dominant topics of conversation even in London. ''Although strongly suggested, it's not definitively stated that this takes place in November 1963; all we know is it takes place soon after the events of ''An Unearthly Child'' which could have taken place at an earlier or later date.'' | *It is strongly suggested that the events of this story take place on or about 23 November, 1963, to coincide with the first broadcast of ''Doctor Who'' in real life, yet no reference occurs to the assassination of [[John F.
