This story replaced a scipt by Stephen Fry which was originally intended to air in this slot and be set in a haunted house but he didn't have time for rewrites

Though Tennant didn't really carry the torch as featured in this episode, Matt Smith actually did. Though not as the Doctor, unfortunately.

The Doctor's prediction about Papua New Guinea in the shot-put wasn't accurate, since PNG didn't win a single medal.

Over ten thousand people signed a petition to get Tennant to carry the torch dressed as the Doctor. It didn't happen.

What are the others? I can't think of any off the top of my head. Perhaps The Girl Who Waited, though older Amy is an arguable case.

It would have been awesome though and made the episode just that little better.
