Worldbuilding

Notes

• The photo novelisation is suitable for fluent plus readers. Inside the book there are a lot of photos from the televised story with a few text. It is for children who are learning to read.
• Peter Gutierrez's photo novelisations The Lodger and Victory of the Daleks look more like photo comics and have less text than the other Doctor Who and The Sarah Jane Adventures photo novelisations.

Deviations from the televised story

• Some of the characters' thoughts are revealed through thought bubbles. These thoughts give some background information about the characters, especially about Steven, Sandra and the clubber.
• Sean is spelled "Shaun" in the novelisation.
