Notes
- To date, this is the final story of Doctor Who?. As the only story published since DWM 350's instalment twelve years prior in 2004, this story is the only one to feature characters from the 2005 version of the show. As such, this story marks the first and only appearances of the Twelfth Doctor, Clara Oswald and River Song in the series.
- The First Doctor's line to the Twelfth Doctor saying that River needs a "jolly good smacked bottom" is a reference to his comment to granddaughter Susan Foreman in The Dalek Invasion of Earth.
