''to be | *Like many early ''Doctor Who'' print stories, both comic and prose, the Doctor is referred to as "Doctor Who" or "Dr. Who". The word "doctor" is not even seen as a proper noun here when used on its own to refer to the character. | ||
*As with other stories in [[Doctor Who Annual 1968|the 1968 annual]], the second Doctor refers to Ben and Polly as "my children", or, individually, "my child", "my girl", or "my boy". Uncharacteristic of the [[Patrick Troughton|Troughton]] Doctor, this seems to be a hold-over from the [[William Hartnell|Hartnell]] interpretation; there was simply too little time between when Troughton took over and this annual had to go to print for the annual's editors to understand Troughton's approach to the role. | |||
*As in other illustrated stories throughout the annual, the Doctor is shown here wearing his [[stovepipe hat]] — another indicator of just how early this annual went to press. | |||
