Production

 * During the introduction to the serial in Part 1, Michael revealed that part of the inspiration to doing his own interpretation of "Human Nature" came from the fan-made charity book, "Forgotten Lives", in which a drawing of "the first Doctor who loved Joan Redern" is depicted. The drawing led Michael to wonder if certain events in the Doctor's history "repeat within the Doctor's life, that they do experience these things over and over again."

 * Dean Latimer's name is a combination of the comparative character from the novel and TV versions of Human Nature, Timothy Dean. and Timothy Latimer.
