Trivia / Doctor Who S28 E2 "Tooth and Claw"

Go To


  • California Doubling: Treowen House in Dingestow, Wales was used for Torchwood House in the Scottish Highlands. Exterior shots were filmed at Craig-y-Nos Castle, Swansea Valley.
  • Completely Different Title:
    • The French title is "Un loup-garou royal" (A Royal Werewolf).
    • The Japanese title is "The Queen and the Werewolf".
  • Deleted Scenes: The scene of Queen Victoria banishing the Doctor and Rose was originally followed by a cut portion which had the pair solemnly addressing each other by their newly-bestowed titles of "Sir Doctor" and "Dame Rose", before breaking into laughter and sprinting away together from Torchwood House.
  • What Could Have Been: Initially, the Doctor and Rose were both supposed to fake Scottish accents, and then forget to use them when the action started. Billie Piper's terrible Scottish accent put an end to that.
    • Queen Victoria was supposed to be killed by the Werewolf, which would cause the alternate universe found in “Doomsday”. This was dropped for being too confusing for casual viewers.
    • Davies originally outsourced the story to a freelance writer, who ignored his suggestions and made a story where Queen Victoria was possessed by an alien insect. It was disregarded by the production.
  • Working Title: "Queen Victoria".
  • You Look Familiar: Pauline Collins was last seen on the show sporting a Liverpool accent and snogging Jamie.
