* [[Eric Saward]] claimed that [[John Nathan-Turner]] wanted to film in Amsterdam for no rhyme or reason and that all you could do is run around the streets.

* [[Leela]] had been written into the script, but [[Louise Jameson]] was unavailable to reprise her role. A few of Leela's actions critical to the plot were therefore given to Nyssa, resulting in a slightly unusually aggressive role for the character.
* The Ergon was envisaged as an assemblage of bones, inspired by the eponymous creature in ''[[Alien (film)|Alien]]''. Sadly, this effect, particuarly the inclusion of a pterodactyl skull (which [[Malcolm Harvey]] wore as a hat), did not come off as intended. With no time available to modify or replace it, the costume was judged a failure.

* Although [[Richard Gregory]] of [[Imagineering]] was so happy with the Omega design that he wove his initials into the design on the chestplate, this costume proved problematic. Imagineering had incorporated servos to move the flaps covering Omega's mouth, but these proved to be so loud that they could not be used.
