Trivia: When everyone is walking through the hotel corridors shortly after the Doctor, Amy and Rory arrive, there is a brief scene where a PE teacher exits a room and starts berating the Doctor. Though never stated, it's implied that this is Rory's room. In The Doctor's Wife, when Amy and Rory are trapped on the TARDIS and are being taunted by House, he tells House that he had a PE teacher just like him.
Trivia: Steven Moffat was so busy on different projects, and the shooting of Series 6 was enough of a troubled production, that he only had time to write one draft of this episode, which is what was shot.
