 *This episode contains no obvious CGI elements or aliens. (There was at least one shot where they needed to black out the Cardiff cityscape in the background.)
 *This is the first non-science fictional/supernatural storyline taking place within the televised Doctor Who universe since ''[[Black Orchid (TV story)|Black Orchid]]'', a [[Fifth Doctor]] adventure broadcast in [[1982]]. However, considering that even the historical episodes of ''Doctor Who'' at the very least featured the TARDIS, then if one discounts the presence of Jack Harkness as a fantasy element (and his immortality is not a factor in this story) and the possible use of any advanced/alien-augmented Torchwood technology (including anything in the Hub), then ''Countrycide'' becomes the first ''Doctor Who'' franchise episode to contain no SF/fantasy at all.
-*This is the first episode where no scenes are set in the Torchwood Hub. The only other episodes where this occurs is ''[[Children of Earth]]'': Days Two - Five.
+*This is the first episode where no scenes are set in the Torchwood Hub. This wouldn't happen again until after the Hub's destruction in ''[[Children of Earth: Day One]]''.
