One of the teasers suggested that there are two Fifth Doctor references in this story, one deliberate, one maybe not.  Well, Androzani Major is quite blatant, but I haven't been able to work out what the other one is.  The only thing I can think of is forest beings who can't speak being reminiscent of the Kinda, but that seems a bit random.  Any thoughts?

If there was one, I missed it. I got the reference to Caves, and the other to The End Of The World, but nothing else.

Unless of course they meant that it was the same reference mentioned more than once, maybe? Androzani Major/Minor got a couple references each.

There was also the reference to The Fires of Pompeii (if you can even call it that). In that episode the Doctor squirts at the soothesayers (on of which was Gillan) with a water pistol, and in this she squirts the Doctor with one. Might be me making silly guesses, but it's what it made me think.

Oh, might it be this? From Four To Doomsday?

The Androzani and Cheem stuff was the only stuff I picked up on. I've not seen anything else mentioned elsewhere, but PPs idea from Four To Doomsday would fit I guess.

Oh yes, that might make sense.  Four to Doomsday isn't a story I know very well.

I totally missed the Cheem reference. I only just read it in the quotes thread

I've never seen it and know nothing about it but I suddenly feel inclined to dig this out Tongue
