Added DiffLines:
* SpiritualSuccessor: ''Doctor Who and the Pirates, Or The Lass that Lost A Sailor'' is one long Creator/GilbertAndSullivan pastiche. Especially in Act 3, where it turns into a musical, with music ripped straight from ''Theatre/ThePiratesOfPenzance'', ''Theatre/TheMikado'', and ''Theatre/HMSPinafore'', complete with Creator/ColinBaker singing "[[MajorGeneralSong I Am the Very Model of a Gallifreyan Buccaneer]]".

Added DiffLines:
* LeastRhymableWord: Episode three is done in the style of a Creator/GilbertAndSullivan homage. The Doctor references the Major-General's song from ''Theatre/ThePiratesOfPenzance'' with "I Am The Very Model of a Gallifreyan Buccaneer", using the phrases "Rassilonian legatee" and "Remember me to Gallifrey" (pronounced here as "Gal-i-free").
