- TriviaColin Baker named this as his favourite episode of the series, highlighting the "Everybody Lives" scene as his favourite moment.
- GoofsIn the preceding episode ('The Empty Child') the Doctor states that "mauve is the universally recognised colour for danger" and that red (the colour human beings most associate with alarm or danger) is, by everyone else's standards, "camp". However, when the Doctor attempts to open/enter the Chula ambulance ship in 'The Doctor Dances', the alarm that is triggered shows a blinking red light.
- Quotes
Captain Jack Harkness: The last time I was sentenced to death, I ordered four hyper-vodkas for my breakfast. All a bit of a blur after that... I woke up in bed with both of my executioners. Lovely couple, they stayed in touch! Can't say that about most executioners.

The Doctor Dances
A gripping second part to this war time two parter, with some lovely moments along the way.
It's a shame that this first series of the reboot is often forgotten, overshadowed by the user friendly David Tennant years, because it did have some good episodes like this.
