  • The title of this episode could be a wink towards the American TV series Alias Smith and Jones, which was a Western program that aired on ABC from 1971 to 1973.
  • Francine make reference to the TV show Quizmania. This was a British interactive game show that aired on ITV from 2005 to 2007.
  • The Tenth Doctor makes reference to the Battle of Canary Wharf. Martha Jones comments that her cousin, Adeola, was killed at the Battle of Canary Wharf. This was an armed conflict between the forces of the Daleks, the Cybermen and Torchwood. The battle climaxed with the destruction of Torchwood One as chronicled in the season two finale, "Doomsday".
  • The Tenth Doctor makes reference to Emmeline Pankhurst in this episode. Emmeline Pankhurst was a British political activist and suffragette, who was active in the early 1900s. Apparently she once stole The Doctor's sonic screwdriver.
