* At Stratfield Saye, stuntman [[Greg Powell]], playing the knight who attacked the convoy in Episode Three, was thrown from his horse when his mount did not follow the planned route and collided with one of the UNIT vehicles.

* The Doctor and Jo's "Permission to come on board?" scene as they set off for Atlantis in the TARDIS was not in the script. The composer also added an unscripted small bit from "[[The Sailor's Hornpipe]]" melody in order to complete it. | * The Doctor and Jo's "Permission to come on board?" scene as they set off for Atlantis in the TARDIS was not in the script.

He envisaged it as a shimmer and a vibration, but it was realised by an actor flapping away on pulleys. | * [[Robert Sloman]] was unimpressed with the realisation of Kronos.
