In fact, the video's original thumbnail used the Beast as one of its two sample members of the organisation alongside the Trickster.

** Introduced in ''The Impossible Planet'', the Beast was notably voiced by [[Gabriel Woolf]], who had previously voiced Sutekh. The Beast was noted to have been known by numerous names including Satan, which was also true of Sutekh. In addition, the nature of the Beast as being the supposed origin of the [[devil]] across all [[religion]]s echoed the [[Fourth Doctor]]'s claim that Sutekh's name was "abominated in every civilised world". Despite these similarities, however, no source has explicitly identified Sutekh and the Beast as being one and the same being. Though the Tenth Doctor does make reference to a pantheon of supposed gods in ''The Satan Pit'', it preceeded the establishment of the Pantheon of Discord.

Despite these similarities, however, no source has explicitly identified Sutekh and the Beast as being one and the same being, an identification which their respective circumstances would seem to preclude; indeed, the Doctor does not treat the Beast as an entity he's faced before. Though the Tenth Doctor does make reference to a "pantheon" of supposed gods in ''The Satan Pit'', the line preceded the establishment of the Pantheon of Discord and appears to be a rhetorical flourish referring to the variety of unrelated god-like beings the Doctor has faced over the years, not to a specific organisaton to which the Beast might belong.
