* SpecialEffectFailure: Well the giant rubber snake actually looks considerably better than the one from "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS19E3Kinda Kinda]]", but it's still not great, particularly when it dies and a torrent of blancmange flows from its mouth. Much like Kinda, the Season 20 Collection Blu-ray has the option of replacing it with a better-looking CGI snake.

* WTHCostumingDepartment: Creator/SarahSutton and Creator/JanetFielding disliked their costumes, with Sutton going so far as to say it made her look fat. Creator/PeterDavison says on the DVDCommentary that it looks worse than Creator/ColinBaker's costume.
