3The Doctor and Rose find themselves in Coldstar, an orbital freezer store which is under attack from pirates. But the pirates defrosting the place as a show of power means that it's soon also under attack from something else...

5* AccidentalMisnaming: Brona mistakenly calls Lorna "Laura" at one point.
6* ContinuityNod:
7** When Lord Hasskar describes how the Ice Warriors adapt a planet to be more like Mars, the Doctor adds that [[Recap/DoctorWhoS6E5TheSeedsOfDeath they'll do it even when the planet is already occupied]]. (In this case, it wasn't.)
8** The Doctor mentions that, even further in the future, [[Recap/DoctorWhoS9E2TheCurseOfPeladon Ice Warriors and humans with both be part of a Galactic Federation]].
9* CycleOfVengeance: Lord Hasskar wants revenge on the humans of Enyo, even though the ones he fought died centuries ago. In turn, the Enyoans of his time period attacked a perfectly peaceful Martian colony because they remembered the wars with ''other'' Ice Warriors.
10* FantasticGhetto: The Ice Warrior refugees and their descendents live in these. Most humans barely even know they're there, but Lorna does, because they still need their bins emptied.
11* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: The humans were the agressors in the war between Enyo and Bellona.
12* NotNowKiddo: Lorna keeps trying to explain that there are Ice Warriors now living on Enyo, but neither Hasskar nor the Doctor will listen.
13* RecoilBoost: Rose, Lorna and Callum Volta manage to escape the Coldstar in an industrial wheelie bin, propelled by the welding torches on the Voltas' robotic "wreckers".
14* ReligiousAndMythologicalThemeNaming: As the Doctor points out, Enyo and Bellona are both names of the Consort of Mars in Roman mythology.
15* RevengeBeforeReason: Lord Hasskar is totally consumed by vengeance, at one point saying that it doesn't even matter if he wins, as long as his enemy loses.
16* SpacePirates: The Voltas, mother and son. Brona claims that her family have been space pirates for generations, and her ship was originally her grandmother's.
