* {{Narm}}: In the stage show, as shown in the 2006 live DVD. Most of the background film being synchronised with the music works really well, but the "dancing heatray" during ''Horsell Common'' looks a bit silly.
** This is taken UpToEleven in the ''New Generation'' stage show where not only is the heat ray seen "dancing" multiple times, but there are also two occasions where it thrashes around as if it was having an epileptic seizure. Luckily, they appear to have toned it back down a bit when they updated the film (again) for the Final Arena Tour.
