Filming Locations

 * Croatia was used as the primary location for the setting of this episode. It is the third episode of the revival series after DW: The Fires of Pompeii and Planet of the Dead to include major filming outside the UK.
 * Some filming took place in Caephilly Castle
 * Scenes featuring The Doctor, Amy and Rory were filmed at Llancaiach Fawr

Rumours

 * An apparent excerpt of the script has been leaked online, which suggests Rory may be a second companion. This could be compared with Mickey Smith's role in Series 2 when he travelled in time with The Doctor. (DW: The Girl in the Fireplace, DW: Rise of the Cybermen and DW: The Age of Steel).
 * It is believed The Doctor will use a gondola in this episode
 * Toby Whithouse told SFX "At one point the Doctor says the word ‘diabetic’. One character is a talking otter. There is an almost painfully beautiful gag about cheese and biscuits. One of those isn't true." And the Doctor won't say "Geronimo."
