  • The Viyrans claim to have encountered the Doctor several times and altered his memory at least once. The Fifth Doctor had his memories altered by the Viyrans in Mission of the Viyrans, when he last visited Gralista Social.
  • Charley Pollard finally parts company with the Doctor (from her perspective) in this story. She has been a continuing companion in the Big Finish stories, starting with the Eighth Doctor in the 2001 story Storm Warning.

    • Critical reception

    Doctor Who Magazine reviewer Matt Michael praised the performances of Colin Baker and India Fisher, but found the story to not have enough of the Charley and Mila plot.
