  • The Torchwood art department produced a full order of service for Rhys and Gwen's wedding in TV: Something Borrowed for the wedding "guests".
  • Actress Nerys Hughes also appeared in Doctor Who's 1982 adventure Kinda. Following a bad fall some years ago she had new titanium knees fitted that set off alarms in airports.
