[edit] References
- In this story, Rose has been dropped off at the 1979 ABBA concert at Wembley Stadium. The Tenth Doctor expressed great affection for that particular year, and especially the music of that year, in DW: Tooth and Claw.
- Sarah Jane Smith was apparently aware of the Graske activity on modern-day Earth depicted in this story. Maria Jackson and members of her family also later encountered a Graske. (SJA: Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane?)

[edit] Story Notes
- This story immediately followed "The Christmas Invasion" and was initially only available to subscribers to the BBC's red button interactive service. Viewers were able to pilot the TARDIS and fight the Graske both on its native world of Griffoth and in Victorian London. From Wednesday 18th January 2006, the story was available to access via the BBC website, but only for UK residents. Currently, it is available for everyone in the world [1]
- The question of whether this episode "counts" as a television story is somewhat muddied by its interactive nature. Some regard it primarily as a game, rather than an episode.
