 * This story features a unique arrangement of Captain Jack's theme with elements of the [[Season 23]] [[Doctor Who theme]].
-* Though Jack notes that he has waited a hundred years for the Doctor, the Earth date of this story is not explicitly given. Jack establishes in [[TV]]: ''[[Utopia (TV story)|Utopia]]'' that his wait on [[Earth]], after leaving the [[Satellite Five|Game Station]]'s era, began in [[1869]]. In the real world, the [[Red Dragon Centre]], which Jack here mentions having visited, was not given that name until the year 2000, but the same has not been established in the [[DWU]].

 ** In [[TV]]: ''[[Fragments (TV story)|Fragments]]'', set in the late [[19th century]], Jack was informed by the [[Little girl (Dead Man Walking)|girl]] that he would find the Doctor only after the [[century]] turned twice.
-* Jack suggests that the [[Sixth Doctor]] watches ''[[Pointless]]''. In the real world, [[Colin Baker]] has competed on ''Pointless Celebrities''.
+** Jack keeps the Doctor from regenerating, implying he has [[the Tenth Doctor's hand]], which would set the story after [[2006]]
+** Jack also suggests that the [[Sixth Doctor]] watches ''[[Pointless]]'', which started airing in [[2009]].

 * Jack believes "Zor" to be a [[villain]]'s [[name]], an intuition which turns out to be correct. Incidentally, the [[Fourth Doctor]] once fought [[Zor (Doctor Who and the Pescatons)|another Zor]], leader of the [[Pescaton]]s. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Doctor Who and the Pescatons (audio story)|Doctor Who and the Pescatons]]'')
 * Jack notes that the [[Sixth Doctor]] is not [[Ninth Doctor|the Doctor he has been waiting for]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Empty Child (TV story)|The Empty Child]]''/''[[The Doctor Dances (TV story)|The Doctor Dances]]'' etc.)
+* Jack mentions "tumultuous buffeting." ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Time and the Rani (novelisation)|Time and the Rani]]'')
 * The Doctor previously called [[Peri Brown]] a "[[flibbertigibbet]]" while attempting to save her from being used as a [[body]] for [[Kiv]]. ([[TV]]; ''[[Mindwarp (TV story)|Mindwarp]]'')
 * As "the Doctor", Jack notes that the [[Dalek]]s call him "[[the Oncoming Storm]]". Jack had heard the Ninth Doctor speak of this to the [[Daleks of human origin]] aboard the [[Dalek Emperor (The Parting of the Ways)|Emperor]]'s [[Dalek Flagship|flagship]].

 * The Doctor is disappointed with Jack for not looking up the Janovar in the TARDIS index file. ([[TV]]: ''[[Castrovalva (TV story)|Castrovalva]]'')
 * The Doctor assures Jack that he will "edit" [[the Doctor's memories|his memory]] of their premature meeting. Indeed, the [[Ninth Doctor]] fails to recognise the younger Jack. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Empty Child (TV story)|The Empty Child]]'')
+* The [[Seventh Doctor]] will later edit his memories again. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Timewyrm: Genesys (novel)|Timewyrm: Genesys]]'')
 * The Sixth Doctor, acknowledging that he is not as good at apologising as he should be, preemptively apologises "several lifetimes early" to Jack for his future incarnation abandoning him, ([[TV]]: ''[[The Parting of the Ways (TV story)|The Parting of the Ways]]'') admitting that he does it to the best of his [[companion]]s and "[[K9|the robot dog]]". ([[TV]]: ''[[The Invasion of Time (TV story)|The Invasion of Time]]'', ''[[Warriors' Gate (TV story)|Warriors' Gate]]'')
 * The Doctor and Jack both concur that they will meet again in the future. Indeed, Jack will ultimately reunite with the [[Tenth Doctor]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Utopia (TV story)|Utopia]]'')
