Story Notes
- This will be first episode of any Doctor Who spin off to feature the Doctor himself in new footage. He previously appeared as a flashback clip in Series 2.
- This marks the third apperance for The Trickster, the first two being in SJA: Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane? and SJA: The Temptation of Sarah Jane Smith. The Trickster was also involved in (but did not appear in) the events of DW: Turn Left.
- Production of this story occurred after the filming of DW: The End of Time, making this David Tennant's final (for now) work as the Doctor.[2]

Myths
- When the Doctor first hears Rani's name, he will initially believe her to be the Time Lady Rani. This is highly improbable, he may recall a link to The Rani or the character may be referenced but it is highly unlikely he will believe Rani to be the Time Lady.
- There are rumours of the Brigadier attending Sarah Jane's wedding, however Nicholas Courtney has not been seen on set (though no set photos exist currently) nor has the BBC announced his appearance or even the inclusion of Courtney, suggesting that this will not occur.
