Notes
- The title of the episode was revealed in Russell T Davies's column A Letter from the Showrunner in Doctor Who Magazine #598, which was styled as an affectionate parody of the song "The Twelve Days of Christmas".[1] The episode's title was also the answer to one of the questions in that issue's crossword puzzle.
- Parts of the script of this episode were used in auditions for Ruby Sunday; the script for self-tapes from potential actors were truncated from the scripts of this episode and the previous, however the longer script for in-person auditions[5] in London[6] was adapted solely from the previous episode.[5]
