* In a deleted scene, based on one from [[Human Nature (novel)|the original novel]], one of the Doctor instructions for Martha is to not let him eat [[pear]]s, as he does not like them and doesn't want to wake up having tasted them.

*The receptacle for the Doctor's identity was changed from a cricket ball to a pocketwatch, as this was something which could actually be opened.
