** The planet Midnight, a planet made of beautiful gems and amazing sights, but deadly to anyone who touched its sunlight. Naturally, humanity built a resort there. And naturally for the Doctor, things go horribly wrong...

** The planet Kooken's Pleasure Pit, located in the Lyran Commonwealth, is pretty much devoted to sexual tourism. At least the big cities -- because people actually want to ''live'' there without being harrassed, anything outside the cities are red zones off-limits to non-residents and tend to be a bit tamer.
** And before Kooken's, there existed Dustball, a casino and "pleasure" world. The Commonwealth set up Kooken's as a "pleasure planet" mostly to try and break the grip of the Malthus crime syndicate that ran Dustball.
