 * During his on-screen appearances, Benton's first name, John, was never given. It was first revealed in the video ''[[Wartime (home video)|Wartime]]'' and later appeared in other licensed stories such as the novel ''[[Happy Endings (novel)|Happy Endings]]''.
 * Benton was the first companion to be portrayed by a juvenile or infant actor. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Time Monster (TV story)|The Time Monster]]'')
-*He was supposed to appear in ''[[The Five Doctors]]'', but [[John Levene]] turned it down, as he objected to the script requiring Benton to not recognise the Second Doctor. Levene felt this was unfaithful to his character, who he felt would not forget the Second Doctor, and he declined to participate. His role was given to [[Charles Crichton|Colonel Crichton]].
