Notes[]
- Bill having a date ruined by the Pope is listed among her previous experiences since becoming the Doctor's companion, seeming to suggest the scene from TV: Extremis, even though this was not an event experienced by the real Bill, but by her Shadow World duplicate. This may simply be suggesting that the real Bill had a similar experience under different circumstances or is simply recalling the events told to her by the Doctor prior to TV: The Pyramid at the End of the World.
