*Much of the dialogue is slightly different from the original version but the the information delivered is still the same - the wording is simply altered. | *Much of the dialogue is slightly different from the original version but the the information delivered is still the same - the wording is simply altered. | ||
*When [[Marc Cory|Cory]] asks [[Gordon Lowery|Lowery]] what he knows of the Daleks, he mentions that he hasn't heard anthing from them since the [[Dalek-Movellan War|Movellan War]] and that the Daleks have invaded Earth a couple of times. The whole concept of the [[Movellan]]s and their war with the Daleks was not part of the TV series until ''[[Destiny of the Daleks (TV story)|Destiny of the Daleks]]'' during the [[Fourth Doctor]]'s era.

The reference to the conflict here approximately dates it 1000 years before the [[41st century]] although, in [[AUDIO]]: ''[[Neverland]]'' [[the Matrix]] contained information about the Daleks and Movellans being engaged in [[4-X-Alpha-4]] in [[4949]]. | ||
*Peel mentions the [[Dalek Prime]], an alternative of the [[Dalek Emperor]] for the never-produced [[War of the Daleks (TV story)|''War of the Daleks'' TV serial]], also proposed by Peel. The Dalek Prime appeared briefly for the first time in Peel's previous novelisation, ''[[The Chase (novelisation)|The Chase]]'' and would later do so again in his [[The Evil of the Daleks (novelisation)|novelisation]] of ''[[The Evil of the Daleks (TV story)|The Evil of the Daleks]]'' (as the Dalek Emperor) and finally in the ''[[War of the Daleks (novel)|War of the Daleks]]'' novel and a mention in ''[[Legacy of the Daleks (novel)|Legacy of the Daleks]]''. Although the Dalek Prime is mentioned here, its second appearance would not happen until the [[The Mutation of Time|second volume]] of the ''Master Plan'' novelisation. | *Peel mentions the [[Dalek Prime]], an alternative of the [[Dalek Emperor]] for the never-produced [[War of the Daleks (TV story)|''War of the Daleks'' TV serial]], also proposed by Peel.

*Some of the descriptions of the delegates are apparently different from how they appeared on-screen. For example, [[Trantis]] is described as "a somewhat faceless creature with an [[egg]]-shaped head", even though on TV he has a fairly human appearance, save for his jagged teeth and eventual tendrils. | *Some of the descriptions of the delegates are apparently different from how they appeared on-screen.

*The final scene of the episode, in which the Daleks and the [[Galactic Council|alliance]] chant "Victory!", is omitted and this part of the novelisation ends on the Daleks leaving Cory and Lowery's bodies. Instead, the next chapter return the action to the Doctor and Katarina as [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] lands on Kembel, transitioning into the beginning of ''The Daleks' Master Plan''. | *The final scene of the episode, in which the Daleks and the [[Galactic Council|alliance]] chant "Victory!", is omitted and this part of the novelisation ends on the Daleks leaving Cory and Lowery's bodies.

*More references are made to the [[Draconian]]s. [[Lizan]] had expected working for the SSS to involve working in an embassy on [[Draconia]] and Chen mentiones complicated "mineral agreements" with [[Draconian Empire|their empire]] during his interview. Another of Lizan's expectations included working in an embassy on [[Alpha Centauri (planet)|Alpha Centauri]], mentioned in [[TV]]: ''[[The Curse of Peladon (TV story)|The Curse of Peladon]]'' and ''[[The Monster of Peladon (TV story)|The Monster of Peladon]]''. | *More references are made to the [[Draconian]]s.
