Writers Notes: "I was reading a story online about high tech houses of the future, sort of like how it was in those adverts in the fifties or sixties about technical suburban homes and thinking that what if something like that happened in a Doctor Who and incorperating those kinds of ideas into a fifteen/ twenty-minute story.
Once that clicked into place the whole story clicked in to place and it was very fun and interesting to write.
I think this episode is a black comedy, there are some nice comical bits in it and there are also some very creepy bits in it and the balance I think is about right when it comes to having a volume of light and dark. For a season opener, it's very good and gets the series off to a great start". - Jaime Harrison.
