Crew

Notes

In this episode, when discussing the scene in which the Eleventh Doctor is cooking, James Corden jokes that Matt Smith has won Junior Masterchef. Though not true, by coincidence, a child called Matthew Smith (not related to Matt Smith) has won Junior Masterchef since the airing of this episode - in the US 2019 season.
