Quotes
====================================
"What do you mean, shift? Since when did ghosts have shifts? Since when did shifts have ghosts? What's going on?" ~ The Tenth Doctor
The Doctor: Who you gonna call?
Rose: Ghostbusters!
The Doctor: I ain't afraid of no ghosts.
"And he'll keep on changing. And in forty years time, fifty, they'll be this woman, this strange woman walking through the marketplace. On some planet a billion miles from Earth. But she's not Rose Tyler. Not anymore. She's not even human." ~ Jackie Tyler
"The space between dimensions. There's all sorts of realities around us—different dimensions. Billions of parallel universes all stacked up against each other. The Void is in between, containing absolutely nothing. Imagine that—no light, no dark, no up, no down. No life. No time. Without end. My people called it The Void, the Eternals called it The Howling. But some people call it Hell." ~ The Tenth Doctor
"So you find the breach, probe it, the sphere comes through. Six hundred feet above London. Bam! It leaves a hole in the fabric of reality. And that hole, you think, "Oh, should we leave it alone? Should we back off? Should we play it safe?" 'Nah!' you think, 'Let's make it bigger!'" ~ The Tenth Doctor
"Please, when Torchwood comes to write my complete history, don't tell people I traveled through time and space with her mother." ~ The Tenth Doctor
"The name's Mickey. Mickey Smith. Defending the Earth." ~ Mickey

Trivia
====================================
Adeola Oshodi is played by Freema Agyeman, who went on next season to play companion Martha Jones (implied to be Adeola's cousin).
The scene where the cybermen come through the plastic is very much like the waking scene from Tomb of the Cybermen.
Camille Coduri (Jackie Tyler) was born on the same day Episode 1 of TV: The Tenth Planet - the episode that introduced the Cybermen - was first broadcast.
Graeme Harper's penchant for including a distorted image of a main character is present in this story. Though not included in every single story he's directed for BBC Wales, it's seen often enough to be considered something of a directorial "signature". Similar distortion is achieved through the use of other magnifying glasses in The Unicorn and the Wasp and Utopia, a curved window in Journey's End, and with mirrors in Turn Left. This time, it's the Doctor that gets "the Harper treatment".
Murray Gold's theme to the Torchwood television series debuts in this episode as incidental music.
When Rose emerges from the Tardis after Torchwood moves it, the Egyptian Sarcophagus it's parked next to is from the original series adventure Pyramids of Mars (season 13), used as the Osirian Time-Space Tunnel conduit.
