* This is the first episode of the revived series in which the Doctor's main companion is male rather than female. Thus it is also the first full episode where no female actors are credited in the opening titles. Prior to this, no female actors were credited in the title sequences of ''[[Attack of the Graske (video game)|Attack of the Graske]]'', ''Time Crash'', and ''[[Music of the Spheres]]''. This would also be repeated in ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]''. | * This is the first episode of the revived series in which the Doctor's main companion is male rather than female.

* All ten incarnations of the Doctor are seen via the visual display of an [[infostamp]] that contains important details concerning the Doctor. This marks the first time since the beginning of the 2005 revival of the series that any image of the first eight Doctors had been shown, other than Peter Davison reprising his role as the Fifth Doctor ([[TV]]: ''[[Time Crash (TV story)|Time Crash]]'') and the journal the Tenth Doctor kept while he was the human John Smith, showing drawings of several past incarnations ([[TV]]: ''[[Human Nature (TV story)|Human Nature]]''). The sequence of shots of the ten Doctors was taken from: [[First Doctor]] - [[TV]]: ''[[The Time Meddler]]'', [[Second Doctor]] - [[TV]]: ''[[The Ice Warriors]]'', [[Third Doctor]] - [[TV]]: ''[[Terror of the Autons]]'', [[Fourth Doctor]] - [[TV]]: ''[[City of Death]]'', [[Fifth Doctor]] - [[TV]]: ''[[Arc of Infinity (TV story)|Arc of Infinity]]'', [[Sixth Doctor]] - [[TV]]: ''[[The Mysterious Planet]]'', [[Seventh Doctor]] - [[TV]]: ''[[Time and the Rani]]'', [[Eighth Doctor]] - [[TV]]: ''[[Doctor Who (1996)|Doctor Who: The TV Movie]]'', [[Ninth Doctor]] - [[TV]]: ''[[The Parting of the Ways]]'', Tenth Doctor - [[TV]]: ''[[The Family of Blood]]''. | * All ten incarnations of the Doctor are seen via the visual display of an [[infostamp]] that contains important details concerning the Doctor.
