Notable Information

 * When the Silurians returned to the series in 2010 Doctor Who’s chief prosthetic artist Neill Gorton, had hoped to use an updated mask with cutting edge animatronics. Steven Moffat preferred a more human-like look that better enabled facial expression. The make-up used was expensive so a ‘battle mask’ was designed for scenes to feature armies of Silurians.
 * The time-meddling Monk a renegade Time Lord left Gallifrey some fifty years after the Doctor.
 * E-Space was also known as Exo-Space.
