The initial cover during the production stage featured the [[Empire State Building]], which was not yet built at the time period depicted in the story ''[[The Great White Hurricane (audio story)|The Great White Hurricane]]''. It was consequently replaced with another famous [[New York City]] landmark, the [[Statue of Liberty]]. However, that also required adjustments because the green patina familiar to listeners in [[2017 (releases)|2017]] is the result of copper oxidation. When the statue was built, it was the bronze colour of copper, as is reflected in the final cover. <ref>[[The Big Finish Podcast]], 16 October 2017, from 22:00</ref>

== Notes ==
* Like ''[[The Diary of River Song: Series Two]]'' a year prior, this was originally announced for release in [[January (releases)|January]] [[2018 (releases)|2018]], but the download version was made available to listeners on [[25 December (releases)|25 December]] [[2017 (releases)|2017]] for all who ordered the release. This coincided with [[David Bradley]]'s appearance as the [[First Doctor]] in the Christmas special ''[[Twice Upon a Time (TV story)|Twice Upon a Time]]''.
* The initial cover during the production stage featured the [[Empire State Building]], which had not been built yet during the time period depicted in the story ''[[The Great White Hurricane (audio story)|The Great White Hurricane]]''. It was consequently replaced with another famous [[New York City]] landmark, the [[Statue of Liberty]]. However, that also required adjustments because the green patina familiar to listeners in [[2017 (releases)|2017]] is the result of copper oxidation. When the statue was newly assembled, it was the bronze colour of copper, as is reflected in the final cover.<ref>[[The Big Finish Podcast]], 16 October 2017, from 22:00</ref>
