::The Doctor is speaking generally, reflecting on how he oftend ends up in the company of certain people rather than selecting to have them with him. Recent to that time in his life, Romana, Adric, Tegan, and Nyssa could all be described in such a manner. If you really want to think of it as such, you could even argue that the Doctor felt forced to "kidnap" Ian and Barbara, because he feared the consequences of letting them go and potentially tell others of him and the TARDIS.

*This story features the Doctor's TARDIS materialising around the Master's TARDIS and creating a [[gravity bubble]] and the [[recursion|recursive]] phenomena of infinite TARDIS'es nesting within each other. Two TARDIS's materialised "inside" each other in [[DW]]: ''[[The Time Monster]]'', but did not happen when the TARDIS materialised inside [[Professor Chronotis]]'s rooms (actually his TARDIS in disguise) in the untelevised [[DW]]: ''[[Shada (TV story)|Shada]]''.

*When Adric and Nyssa are "outside time and space", how can they possibly see things that change with the passing of time - i.e. the growing entropy field?

::The TARDIS scanner could show them the areas of Space-Time in which they were interested, much as the [[Time-Space Visualiser]] could in [[DW]]: [[The Space Museum]] and [[The Chase]]

*How could Nyssa be certain when looking at the scanner image of the entire Universe that she couldn't see Traken or Mettula Orionis?  Surely trying to find a single star or planet in an outside view of ''the entire universe'' is nonsense.
