* DoctorWhomage: Trevithick and his show ''Nightshade'' has more than a few similarities to ''Doctor Who'' and the actors who played the main character. Most notably, he's a crotchety old man with a soft spot for a science fiction show he worked on decades ago, like Creator/WilliamHartnell. He also bears a strong resemblance to one of the Doctor's direct antecedents, [[Franchise/{{Quatermass}} Bernard Quatermass]].

Added DiffLines:
Memory and nostalgia has been something the Doctor rarely thinks about. However, when he lands in Crook Marsham in the late 60's, he and Ace discover that the town is being terrorised by an unknown force, as the citizens have been falling prey to their old memories. With the help of the locals, including a retired sci-fi actor, the Doctor attempts to discover why people's memories are coming back to haunt them. And he's not immune to it...
