    • Continuity

  • Ace and Hex discovered that the Doctor was missing at the start of Protect and Survive.
  • Fenric and the Haemovores first appeared in the 1989 Seventh Doctor television story, The Curse of Fenric.
  • In her first television story, 1987's Dragonfire, Ace explained that she first left Earth in the 1980s, during a botched chemistry experiment. In The Curse of Fenric, Fenric revealed that he had transported her in a Time Storm.
  • The Doctor is reminded of his description of Ace's home, spoken during Dragonfire, "It's an idyllic place, Perivale. Lush green meadows, village blacksmith."
  • Fenric claimed he had a backup companion in mind for the Doctor, a Welsh girl on a motorcycle. This is a reference to Ray, in the 1987 television story, Delta and the Bannermen. This is an obscure joke, as that character was, at one point, being considered as a new companion, before it was decided to introduce Ace.
  • The Doctor claims he had first suspected Fenric's return in the 2009 audio story, The Magic Mousetrap.
  • The Truth Sayer was explained in Project: Nirvana.
  • Peggy and Albert were introduced in Protect and Survive.
  • Weyland claims to have directly influenced the creation of The Forge, and manipulated the lives of all of its personnel.
  • Hex was shot in The Angel of Scutari. He was returned to health in the next story, Project: Destiny, seemingly at the hands of The Forge.
