The episode resembles Tooth and Claw in several ways. Martha tries to fit into the Elizabethan past by speaking in 'period' clichés (as Rose attempted to do in Scotland, using stereotyped Scottish phrases). Irritated in each case, the Doctor implores, "No, don't do that". He also reprises his title as 'Sir Doctor of TARDIS'. In addition, at the end of each respective episode, it becomes clear that The Doctor is seen as an enemy by each of the reigning queens (Victoria and Elizabeth I).
How he has made an enemy of Elizabeth I has not yet been revealed, although it may be a reference to the feature The End Of Time in which he claims "Got married. Good Queen Bess. That was a mistake. And let me tell you, her nickname is no longer... hmm... Anyway....."
