[edit] Trivia
- Kathy Chambers' story is resolved in the Fifth Doctor audio drama The Gathering.
- Despite the fact that Claudia Christian plays Nicola Bryant's mother, she is almost three years her junior.
- Commander Zheng, a character who first appeared in the Fifth Doctor audio drama Spare Parts, has a brief cameo.
- Janine Foster, Peri's mother, and Mrs. Van Gysegham were both mentioned in Planet of Fire, in which Peri made her debut. Peri's father's name being Paul comes from the Past Doctor Adventures novel Synthespians™.
- In addition to Planet of Fire, the events of The Caves of Androzani - specifically the Fifth Doctor's regeneration - and Attack of the Cybermen are also referenced.
- The dimensionally transcendental time machine the Cybermen find on a burned world far in the future is a possible reference to the Time War.
