Episode Quotes
 
Fortune Teller: I see, a man, the most remarkable man. How did you meet him?
Donna: You're supposed to tell me.
Fortune Teller: I see the future, tell me the past. When did your lives cross?
Donna: It's sort of complicated. I ended up in his spaceship on my wedding day. Long story.
 
Sylvia: Oh, I know why you want a job with HC Clements, lady. 'Cause you think you'll meet a man with lots of money and your whole life will change. Well, let me tell you, sweetheart, city executives don't need temps except for practice.
Donna: Yeah, well, they haven't met me.
 
Fortune Teller: Turn right and never meet that man. Turn right and change the world!
 
Wilfred: Sweetheart, come on. You're not gonna make the world any better by shouting at it.
Donna: I can try.
 
Rose: Just remember: when you get to the junction, change the car's direction by one minute past ten.
Donna: How do I do that?
Rose: That's up to you.
Donna: Well, I just have to run up to myself and have a good argument.
Rose: I'd like to see that!
 
Rose: Good luck.
Donna: I'm ready.
Rose: One minute past ten.
Donna: 'Cause I understand now. You said I was gonna die, but you mean this whole world is gonna blink out of existence. But that's not dying, 'cause a better world is gonna take its place – the Doctor's world. And I'm still alive. That's right, isn't it? I don't die. If I change things, then I don't die. That's… that's right, isn't it?
Rose: I'm sorry.
Donna: But I can't die! I've got a future! With the Doctor! You told me!

The results of the Doctor's absence are seen as the events of The Runaway Bride, Smith and Jones, Voyage of the Damned, Partners in Crime and The Sontaran Stratagem/The Poison Sky unfold differently to what we saw in the actual episodes.
 
The Doctor mentions the Trickster's Brigade. The Trickster's Brigade has previously appeared in The Sarah Jane Smith Adventures in the episode Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane? when they attempted to alter Sarah Jane's timeline.
 
For the first time characters unique to the crossover series are mentioned: Ianto Jones and Gwen Cooper are mentioned (Torchwood), as are Marie and Luke from The Sarah Jane Smith Adventures.
 
The Cloister Bells, a warning of imminent universe-spanning danger, are heard for the first time since Trial of a Time Lord in the original series.
