Behind the scenes

 * The webcast illustration of Shada's interior contains Arthur Dent and Zaphod Beeblebrox from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy as a nod to Douglas Adams.
 * On the website "Who is Doctor Who", Arthur Dent says that the Ninth Doctor lay down in front of a bulldozer in front of his house, calling him 'rather odd'.
