** The episode was to end with an ominous scene in the Cyberiad featuring Cybermen from throughout their televised history, including the "Oldest Cyberman" (resembling those seen in "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS4E2TheTenthPlanet The Tenth Planet]]") who would hint at a broader plot to snare the Doctor. This element would eventually be dropped, while Gaiman also struggled to find a way to better involve the Doctor in the action. He finally came up with the idea of engaging the Doctor and the Cyber-Planner in a duel set inside the Time Lord's mind, affording Creator/MattSmith the opportunity to give a very different onscreen performance.
