* HarsherInHindsight: In the light of the Tenth Doctor story "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS30E2TheFiresOfPompeii The Fires of Pompeii]]", the Seventh's line about the volcano being nothing to do with him comes over a lot differently.

He ''knows'' he can't save them, because he's tried and failed before.

He is under a lot of pressure, though.though, and in fairness loses access to the TARDIS for most of the story so that even if he ''did'' think of it, he couldn't do anything about it.
