=== Tropes ===
 
* [[Artistic License Physics]]: Parodied; the Doctor manages to disarm the Karkus by pointing out that his weapon of choice, the "Anti-Molecular Ray Disintegrator" would never work or exist in real-life. Unfortunately that doesn't stop the Karkus from trying to beat the crap out of the Doctor and Zoe.
* [[Best Known for Thethe Fanservice]]: [http://community.livejournal.com/ihasatardis/621849.html Zoe on the revolving TARDIS console]. From the DVD, we learn that one attempt to film this sequence was brought to a halt by a [[Wardrobe Malfunction]].
** Amusingly, Wendy Padbury apparently considered it a good costume - easy to move in, comfortable, etc.
* [[Bottle Episode]]: The first episode, which was added at the last minute after the previous serial was shortened.
* [[Male Gaze]]: See [[Best Known for Thethe Fanservice]].
* [[Massive Multiplayer Crossover]]
* [[The Master (trope)|The Master]]: ''Not'' the Time Lord, but just an ordinary writer from the 1920s.
* [[Mind Screw]]: The first episode. To an extent, the following four as well.
* [[My Car Hates Me|My TARDIS Hates Me]]: The Doctor had to use the emergency unit to escape from the lava flow because the TARDIS's normal engines chose that moment to break down.
* [[No Budget]]: For the first episode, which is why it's a [[Bottle Episode]].
Line 34:
* [[Unicorn]]: Jamie dreams of one, and they later encounter it for real. It's one of the wild and violent sort.
* [[Waif Fu]]: Zoe versus the Karkus.
* [[What Happened to Thethe Mouse?]]: What happened to the Master of the Land?
