* ArtisticLicenseHistory: Bill remarks that, in 1814, she would have to deal with slavery. While that would be true if the TARDIS landed in ''America'' in 1814, chattel slavery (as opposed to serfdom) was never legal in Britain and the courts had ruled against the practice decades earlier, in the Somerset case. Encounters with slave ''owners'' were still a possibility, as British-owned colonial outposts still engaged in chattel slavery, but Bill herself being thought a slave was not. This could be a [[JustifiedTrope justified]] misconception, however, as Bill is not familiar with the time period, but the Doctor does seem to concur with her (or at least seeks to assuage her concerns). The actual episode never has any slaves or slavery in it, unless the river creature's bondage qualifies.

This winds up undermining the episode, because he's so blatant about it that it's hard to take the Doctor's reaction to him seriously. This is the same Doctor that [[Recap/DoctorWhos34E2IntoTheDalek risked his life to save a dying Dalek]], now punching some idiot over a racial slur, then breaking his own ThouShaltNotKill rule, because intolerance is now apparently the only evil that he can't stand.
