*The Doctor says he'll reverse the polarity. This is a piece of Doctor techno-babble commonly used. It has been the subject of spoofs and its frequent use may even be an in-joke. To reverse the polarity simply means to connect electrical wires to the wrong terminals of an appliance. | *The Doctor says he'll reverse the polarity.

*In this adventure the Doctor's legs are temporarily paralysed by a Dalek blast. He is shot by a Dalek on two other occasions (though he is shot ''at'' on numerous occasions). That is, in [[DW]]: ''[[The Stolen Earth]]'', when the blast initiates a [[regeneration]] and in [[DW]]: ''[[The Big Bang]]'' by the [[Stone Dalek]].

*The [[Thal]]s feature in a television story for the first time since [[DW]]: ''[[The Daleks]]''. They say they come from [[Skaro]], implying that either the war between the Thals and the Daleks is still continuing, or that the Thals have expelled the Daleks from the homeworld. The latter is supported by the Doctor's observation that the Daleks 'have returned' to Skaro in [[DW]]: ''[[Destiny of the Daleks]]''. As in ''The Daleks'', the Thals are portrayed as fair skinned with golden hair. | *The [[Thal]]s feature in a television story for the first time since [[DW]]: ''[[The Daleks]]''.
