* ''Blink'' writer [[Steven Moffat]] had originally created the character of [[Sally Sparrow (What I Did on My Christmas Holidays by Sally Sparrow)|Sally Sparrow]] for his short story ''[[What I Did on My Christmas Holidays by Sally Sparrow]]'' from ''[[Doctor Who Annual 2006]]''. This [[Ninth Doctor]] adventure (uniquely ''sans'' [[Rose Tyler]]) depicted Sally as a young girl who communicates with the Doctor via pre-recorded messages, much as in ''Blink''.

* There was a plan in one draft to have the book and DVD shop ran by Sally and Larry to be crushed by a [[Dalek]] ship in [[The Stolen Earth (TV story)]], but this scene wasn't even filmed, meaning its place in canon is unknown. | |||
