The story was notable for revealing the origins of the [[Twelfth Doctor]]'s face: he had unknowingly taken on the likeness of [[Lobus Caecilius]], a man whose life the [[Tenth Doctor]] had saved. This marked the first time ''Doctor Who'' had given an explanation for the Doctor being played by an actor who had previously played a different role in the series. [[Colin Baker]], who first portrayed the Time Lord [[Maxil]], later went on to portray the [[Sixth Doctor]]; however, in this instance, it was never explained in-universe why the Sixth Doctor had taken on Maxil's appearance, or if the likeness was deliberate. | The story was notable for revealing the origins of the [[Twelfth Doctor]]'s face: he had unknowingly taken on the likeness of [[Lobus Caecilius]], a man whose life the [[Tenth Doctor]] had saved.
