Story Notes

 * This episode was mistakably entitled Reality Check and Don't Go Up The Stairs.
 * "The Lodger" is also the title of a comic strip story by Gareth Roberts. It is unknown if this story is a adaption of the other. though set report evidence seems to confirm it as a adaptation and being the same title and writer make it seem more likely.
 * The Doctor will wear a Football kit and play in a Football team with Craig in the episode.

Rumours

 * It is rumoured that either the Timoreen, the Ha'rik or the Skarkish will appear.
 * This episode will be the one that features the Blue Peter Competition TARDIS console. It is thought that, considering the content of this stories comic strip counterpart and the details for the aforementioned competition, that perhaps the TARDIS jumps a time track and is unable to get back to The Doctor's time (perhaps a larger time track) and so The Doctor will begin the lengthy operation of building a makeshift TARDIS to find the original, incorporating the Blue Peter winner's design.
