Notes

Iris Wildthyme previously played against the Fifth Doctor in Excelis Dawns as well as Bernice Summerfield in the related story The Plague Herds of Excelis. She also has her own spin-off series, Iris Wildthyme; its theme song is an instrumental version of the number she sings in this story.
The Doctor comments about his recent experiences in The Trial of a Time Lord and elements of that story are reflected in this audio.
The "ask a glass of water" quote that the Doctor attributes to his friend "Douglas" is from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, written by former Doctor Who script editor, Douglas Adams.
The concept of a Time Ram was introduced in the classic series TV story The Time Monster.
Sylvester McCoy has a brief, uncredited cameo as the Seventh Doctor at the end of the story.
