* BroadStrokes: Most of the classic companions who return in this episode have their post-TARDIS histories treated as blank slates, with many details of their lives given in the ExpandedUniverse ignored, including details officially given by Creator/RussellTDavies. Ace's "[[Recap/TheSarahJaneAdventuresS4E5E6DeathOfTheDoctor A Charitable Earth]]" foundation is never mentioned, Tegan is single rather than [[Recap/TheSarahJaneAdventuresSpecialFarewellSarahJane married to Nyssa]], Mel is inexplicably back on Earth instead of [[Recap/DoctorWhoS24E4Dragonfire traveling with Sabalom Glitz]][[note]]This was ultimately explained [[Recap/DoctorWho60thASTheGiggle three episodes later]][[/note]], and Ian is shown to be an elderly man, as opposed to the implication that his and Barbara's travels in the TARDIS [[Recap/TheSarahJaneAdventuresS4E5E6DeathOfTheDoctor somehow rendered them ageless]], though that last one was mentioned to just be a rumour.

* ArtisticLicenseGunSafety: Cybermen aren't very good at checking what's behind their target. When the Fugitive Doctor shows up in the Czar's palace, the Cybermen surround her and start firing... in a circle. Since she's an hologram, they all end up shooting themselves.
