* During the height of Michael Jackson's popularity in the 1980s, American film studio Paramount Pictures expressed interest in producing a theatrical Doctor Who film that starred Jackson as the Doctor, riding the coattails of the success of Jackson's film ; these plans fell through sometime around 1988. Had this idea gone through, Jackson would've become the first non-white actor to portray the Doctor outside of parodies, as well as the first non-British one.
* Rose sarcastically referring to Lady Cassandra with Jackson's name is supposedly a reference to the singers infamous drastic change of appearance due to continuous plastic surgery procedures.
* It was also rumoured that the unreleased song "Sex Life" recorded by Michael Jackson in 1981 was going to be shown in the 2nd episode of the 12th doctor's series.
