* GeorgeLucasAlteredVersion: The 2023 television broadcast of ''Adventure'' replaces Creator/MattSmith’s cameo with newly-filmed footage of Creator/NcutiGatwa’s Fifteenth Doctor. Additionally, scnes based around the filming of "An Unearthly Child" had to be edited due to the ongoing rights dispute with the original writer's son, Stef Coburn which has also prevented the serial itself from appearing on streaming services.

* RealitySubtext: Creator/WilliamHartnell was keen to take the role as The Doctor because he was becoming sick of being handed nothing but "Criminals and perishing Sergent Majors" to play. Prior to this docudrama, Creator/DavidBradley is primarily known as a GrumpyOldMan in two [[Film/HarryPotter hugely]] [[Series/GameOfThrones popular]] works. In short, Bradley is PlayingAgainstType as a character actor doing exactly the same.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Creator/MarkGatiss wanted to recreate the closing moments of "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS3E4TheDaleksMasterPlan The Daleks' Master Plan]]" episode 12, and Creator/JeanMarsh had agreed to appear as the older Sara Kingdom, but the budget wouldn't allow it. At the BFI, Mark Gatiss commented that he almost said 'sod it, close the door, let's [[TheRemake record]] [[MissingEpisode Marco Polo]]'. And there were apparently many scenes cut from the final film. Among them was Gatiss himself as Creator/JonPertwee. And apparently Creator/StevenMoffat (Series/DoctorWho show-runner) as ''Creator/TomBaker''.

* IAmNotShazam: Played straight. ''Everyone,'' even people on the show, even Creator/WilliamHartnell himself refer to the character of The Doctor as "Doctor Who." [[note]]This is [[JustifiedTrope historically accurate]] -- the character was listed in the credits first as "Dr. Who", then "Doctor Who", all the way up until 1981, only being changed to the proper title of "the Doctor" at PromotedFanboy Creator/PeterDavison's request (the "Doctor Who" listing in the credits was briefly brought back in 2005, only to again be changed to "the Doctor" at the request of Creator/DavidTennant). Even then, staff and press releases still use the improper "Doctor Who" moniker to this day to avoid any ambiguity, as "the Doctor" could refer to any bevy of fictional physicians and scientists.[[/note]]
