Trivia
====================================
Though it apparently was not used in the episode, in Doctor Who Confidential a cut segment from the scene in which the Silurians are marching the Doctor and Nasreen to the court hall appears. In the dialogue, Nasreen expresses that she does not want to be executed "down here". The Doctor commiserates, saying that the "last time I was executed it really put a blight on the day." There are several possible events to which this could be a reference, but as this scene did not appear on screen it should not affect continuity.
The Doctor uses the phrase, "squeaky bum time", originally coined by Sir Alex Ferguson in 2003. Ferguson is the manager of football club Manchester United. Before Matt Smith became an actor, he planned to become a professional footballer and is still a fan of the sport, perhaps why the line was included.
It is revealed that the Doctor's TARDIS is at least at the centre of the explosion that started the cracks, as the Doctor fishes a piece of TARDIS out of the crack, which is burnt and destroyed. It is also a foreshadowing of The Pandorica Opens /The Big Bang.
The Silurian Council Chamber is a redress of the Temple of Peace, which had previously been used as the Platform One meeting room set from TV: The End of the World, the Senate building seen in Gridlock, the temple of the Sibylline Sisterhood in The Fires of Pompeii and the Mona Lisa chamber at the art gallery from the Sarah Jane Adventures episode Mona Lisa's Revenge.
