- Ass Pull: Even with the subsequent explanation that the Slitheen are telepathically linked, the effect of the electrocution being transmitted to all of them doesn't really make sense.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: Jackie banters about how the Doctor and Rose should be knighted and wonders whether or not the Doctor even eats normal food.
- Narm: Harriet Jones:"Noooooooo!!! Take MEEEE! Take MEEEE FIIIIRSSST!"
- Never Live It Down: This two-parter has some serious political satire, and emotional drama for the lead characters, but it is remembered primarily as "the one with farting aliens".
- Special Effect Failure: At the beginning of the last scene, the Doctor exits the TARDIS in a shot where the prop's real interior can be seen, complete with light from outside shining through one of the windows.
