Production errors

 * The episode is erroneously credited on-screen as having been written by Steven Moffat. The booklet that accompanies the Complete Series 6 DVD/Bluray boxset corrects this error.

Continuity

 * The power fluctuates, followed by the sound of Cybermen marching, foreshadowing the events of DW: Closing Time.
