* [[John Dorney]]'s initial thoughts for the story were for it to be a celebrity historical in the style of the [[Russell T Davies|RTD-era]]. He knew very little about ''Metropolis'' or Fritz Lang upon being asked to submit some story ideas, although he had seen {{wi|M (1931 film)|M}}. He later watched ''Metropolis'' with friends for a podcast and formed further ideas around the film, leading him to conduct his own research into its director and production. Much of these details made it into the script. ([[VOR 152]])
