Trivia
====================================
Mark Gatiss' appearance makes him one of a select few to have both written for and acted in the show, and the first of the revived series to do so. Gatiss' involvement with the Doctor Who franchise dates back to writing for the Virgin New Adventures novel series in the early 1990s, as well as appearing in and writing several independent spin-off video productions. Gatiss also appears in Victory of the Daleks, an episode he also wrote.
Gatiss is Steve Moffat's partner in the Sherlock BBC Series as well as appearing as Mycroft Holmes in that series. He also played Robert Louis Stevenson in Moffat's Jekyll.
The name 'Lazarus' is a reference to the Biblical man who was resurrected from the dead, similar to being given youth back. The comparison is made explicit when he escapes the ambulance and the Doctor says, "Lazarus, back from the dead."
The capsule of Lazarus's Genetic Manipulation Device is actually the redecorated descent capsule from The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit.
Dr Lazarus (Mark Gatiss) says he once lived above a butcher's shop as a child. In his role as Hilary Briss in the BBC series The League of Gentlemen, Gatiss is well known for playing a butcher.
