Notes
Sophie Okonedo plays “Liz 10”. She was previously the companion in the Wilderness Years special, “Scream of the Shalka“.- Liz 10 appears again later this season in “The Pandorica Opens“.
- I believe this is the only episode where we hear Amy Pond’s middle name – Jessica.
- David Ajala plays Peter here. He’s more well known for roles in Supergirl & Star Trek: Discovery.

Interesting story about the whole of the UK being cramped together on "Starship UK". The Doctor lands and gets involved in local political intrigue. What I like most here is Matt's pic.twitter.com/SVYevzjNa4

performance - we get an early example of the rage of the Doctor - not every Dr actor pulls this off well. I wish this was longer, as it seemed to end quickly. Lots of foreshadowing. pic.twitter.com/4IoRW6LlF7
