References
- When the Doctor is attacked by the Keller Machine he sees a War Machine, a Cyberman, a Dalek and a Zarbi.
- The Doctor can speak Mandarin and went on the Long March with Mao Tse-Tung and seems sympathetic towards him. He relives some of the fear that he felt when facing his many adversaries and his experience of seeing a world destroyed by flames. (This may well refer to Project Inferno.)
- The Master's innermost fear appears as a giant, malignant version of the Doctor, filled with mocking laughter.
- The Doctor says he once shared a cell in the Tower of London with Sir Walter Raleigh ("a very strange chap... Kept going on about this new vegetable he'd discovered").
Story Notes
- This is the first occurrence of subtitles on screen in Doctor Who, the only other time is in The Curse of Fenric.
