This story was the first in ''Doctor Who'' history with sequences taking place on [[Earth]]'s [[The Moon|Moon]]. Jamie is incapacitated for most of the story, and as a result his appearance in the story is limited. This was one of the earliest examples of a "[[companion-lite]]" story, and the concept woudn't be explored properly until ''[[Kinda (TV story)|Kinda]].''
