Notes
- This is a rare 'Historical' Doctor Who adventure in the manner of the numerous serials of the TV series' William Hartnell era (such as The Aztecs and The Smugglers), but only Black Orchid subsequent to the 1960s – meaning that the characters interact with history (and historical characters) but there are no science-fiction elements (e.g. aliens) beyond the presence of themselves and the TARDIS.
- Francesa Hunt is the sister of India Fisher, and the part of Georgina Marlow was created especially for her when Fisher indicated that Hunt wanted to act in a Doctor Who play.
