Episode Quotes
Elton Pope: When you're a kid, they tell you it's all... grow up. Get a job. Get married. Get a house. Have a kid, and that's it. But the truth is, the world is so much stranger than that. It's so much darker. And so much madder. And so much better.
Elton Pope: Turns out I've had the most terrible things happen. And the most brilliant things. And sometimes, well, I can't tell the difference. They're all the same thing. They're... they're just me. You know, Stephen King said once, he said, "salvation and damnation are the same thing." And I never knew what he meant. But I do now.
Elton Pope: We forget because we must.

Trivia
- "Love and Monsters" contains references to the season-wide story arcs of the first four series; the Abzorbaloff got his files on the Doctor from the Torchwood Archive (series 2), but the files on Rose have been corrupted by the Bad Wolf Virus (series 1). The newspaper the Abzorbaloff reads contains a reference to Mr. Saxon leading the election (series 3). Finally, the Abzorbaloff is from Clom, one of the missing planets from series 4.
- Mr. Saxon reference: just before Elton sees the Absorbaloff's true form, he is reading a paper with a headline reading "Saxon leads polls with 64 per cent." Albeit subtle, this is the first reference to the series 3 "Mr Saxon" arc keyword; prior to the series 3 debut, a "Vote Saxon" poster would also appear in "Torchwood" (2006) {Captain Jack Harkness (#1.12)}.
- Bad Wolf Reference: Mr Kennedy gives the LINDA members a picture Rose from Torchwood archives but there isn't any other information because of the "Bad Wolf Virus"
- The very first scene of the episode, when Elton sees the TARDIS near the warehouses, was originally supposed to be shot at the dockside. However, due to a large shipment of steel cables, that location that fell through at the last minute.
- The Hoix (the alien seen chasing and being chased by the Doctor and Rose at the beginning of the episode) was improvised out of bits and pieces the designers had lying around because they were originally only supposed to create the Abzorbaloff, the primary monster in the episode. The director's only request was "lots of drool". Additionally, the Hoix was not named until after filming they needed a name for the credits.
