* RealLifeRelative: Caitlin Blackwood, the actress who plays young Amelia, is Creator/KarenGillan's cousin, although the two had never met before this episode was filmed. The 2 sides of the family had actually become estranged and Caitlin was cast largely on her remarkable likeness to Karen with no one having any idea that it was actually a genuine family resemblance. It was only when the pair began talking at rehearsal that they realised the truth.

** Creator/DavidTennant was approached to do one more series as the [[Characters/DoctorWhoTenthDoctor Tenth Doctor]] and, after a meeting with Creator/StevenMoffat where Moffat explained some of his ideas for the show, he briefly thought about reconsidering his decision to leave with Russell T Davies. While he ultimately stuck to his original decision, he stated that he would've gladly stayed on with the knowledge that Creator/StevenMoffat was going to be the new executive producer. Had this happened, this episode would have started with Amy Pond meeting an injured Tenth Doctor, only for Amy to meet him years later unscathed. The season finale would have revealed a TimeyWimeyBall showing that she had met Ten at the end of his life, ''[[http://www.doctorwhotv.co.uk/what-if-tennant-had-stayed-for-series-5-63702.htm on the brink of regeneration.]]''
