* It was originally intended that when Light emerged from the lift, he would walk straight through the Doctor standing in his path. Unfortunately, this effect proved impossible to achieve on-screen, but was reinstated by [[Marc Platt]] for his [[Ghost Light (novelisation)|novelisation]] of the story. In the finished programme, the Doctor is forced aside — presumably by Light's telekinesis — as the tall, thin angel-like figure passes. | * It was originally intended that when Light emerged from the lift, he would walk straight through the Doctor standing in his path.

* A scene set in Gabriel Chase's upper observatory featuring Josiah, Nimrod and Light was rehearsed for ''Ghost Light'' part three, but was cut from the script and never actually recorded.

([[PROSE]]: [[Ghost Light (script)|''Doctor Who: The Scripts - Ghost Light'']]) However, [[Marc Platt]] reinstated this scene for the [[Ghost Light (novelisation)|novelisation]]. | |||
