Story notes

 * Dreamland is a alternate name for the secretive Area 51 military base in Groom Lake, Nevada. It is the subject of many conspiracy theories, some of which involve the alleged Roswell crash debris and bodies being studied there. It is unknown if Area 51 will tie into the story, however, as it is set in Roswell, New Mexico.

Rumours

 * There are rumours that this animated adventure will involve the Tenth Doctor being trapped in a dream-like place, hence the title, wherein he will encounter each of his past incarnations, taking advantage of the animated format of the adventure to bring back Doctor's played by actors who are now deceased. The deceased Doctor's voices will be performed using voice actors or, where possible, using archived audio clips. This will also be how actor's who do not wish to return to the show (a rumoured example being Christopher Eccleston) will be included in the special, as the aforementioned 'hold-outs' have agreed that their likenesses can be used in the adventure. As of July 2009, this has not been confirmed or denied by the BBC. It should be noted that such a scenario (the Tenth Doctor meeting visions of his former selves) already played out in the IDW Publishing comic book series The Forgotten.

Myths
Cassie Rice is thought to be the Doctor's daughter in disguise, but this is mere speculation.
