*This episode deliberately evoked the feel of the [[w:c:indianajones:Indiana Jones (franchise)|''Indiana Jones'' franchise]]. River's scene at [[The Maldovarium]] is a gag drawn directly from the teaser sequence of ''[[w:c:indianajones:Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom|Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom]]''. The use of flambeaux in the cavernous "[[under Henge]]" was directly inspired by the teaser to ''[[w:c:indianajones:Raiders of the Lost Ark|Raiders of the Lost Ark]]''. Finally [[director]] [[Toby Haynes]] [[Playback (terminology)|played back]] a cue from ''Raiders'' while filming the sequence of the Doctor, River and Amy entering the "under Henge" in order to give the sequence appropriate tempo. ([[CON]]: "[[Alien Abduction]]") | *This episode deliberately evoked the feel of the [[w:c:indianajones:Indiana Jones (franchise)|''Indiana Jones'' franchise]].

*Interestingly, River Song refers to the human race as "your race", rather than "our race", suggesting she isn't human or does not originate from this race of humans (was not born on Earth). During the 51st century, where she seems to be from, humans have colonised other worlds. | *Interestingly, River Song refers to the human race as "your race", rather than "our race", suggesting she isn't human or does not originate from this race of humans (was not born on Earth).

* Amy Pond describes her deep interest in Roman culture. Karen Gillan's original appearance on Doctor Who was that of a [[soothsayer]] from Pompeii in [[DW]]: [[The Fires of Pompeii]] | |||
