Like his counterpart, Stahlmann was born in Germany and grew up during the Great Depression and the [[Nazi|Nazi era]]. | |||
Unlike his [[beard]]ed counterpart in the [[N-Space|primary universe]], Stahlmann was clean-shaven and also wore dark-tinted [[glasses]]. He also spoke in a colder, cooler tone and was evidently pleased that [[Keith Gold (Inferno Earth)|Sir Keith Gold]] had died in a road accident. | Unlike his [[beard]]ed counterpart in the [[N-Space|primary universe]], Stahlmann was clean-shaven and also wore dark-tinted [[glasses]].

* The Director's name is spelled ''STAHLMANN'' on his protective suit's nameplate. However, in the credits for episode five, as well as in [[Inferno (novelisation)|the novelisation]], it is written as "Director Stahlman". In ''[[The Face of the Enemy (novel)|The Face of the Enemy]]'' and ''[[I, Alastair (novel)|I, Alastair]]'', the nameplate variation of his name is confirmed as being the correct spelling for the Inferno Earth universe. | * The Director's name is spelled ''STAHLMANN'' on his protective suit's nameplate.

At the top of page 129 of ''[[Doctor Who: The Book of Whoniversal Records]]'' by [[Simon Guerrier]], published by [[BBC Books]] in [[2017]], there is a black-and-white photograph of the mutated Director Stahlmann, on which the second "N" on the ''STAHLMANN'' nameplate has been mysteriously blacked out by what would appear to be a ballpoint pen. | ||
