MISTAKES/GOOFS

BOOM: When The Doctor and Martha are in Martha's apartment for the second time, a boom mic is visible in front of the police box, just above the 'Public Call' wording.
CONT: In the final sequence in the cathedral, Lazarus is crouched on the floor covered by a blanket. In different shots, the position of the blanket constantly changes from being over his shoulders to halfway down his body.

TRIVIA

Mr. Saxon Reference: Throughout the episode, Mr. Saxon is brought up by Professor Lazarus, as one of his confidants and supporters of the experiment. Also, Francine Jones begs Martha not to go with the Doctor, that she's heard terrible things about him from "Mr. Saxon himself".
An old head-cast of Vincent Price (I) was tracked down and used by 'Neil Gorton' to add an aged and wrinkled look to the prosthetics Mark Gatiss wore when playing the elderly Dr Lazarus.
When The Doctor mentions, "It shouldn't take that long to reverse the polarity. I must be out of practice", it is a reference to Jon Pertwee, who played the Third incarnation of The Doctor, whose very frequent solution to problems was to yell (and then do) "Reverse the Polarity!"
