Notable Features:
- 'The Lodger' was specifically adapted from the Gareth Roberts-written comic strip of the same name in Doctor Who Magazine in 2006, where the Tenth Doctor moves in with Mickey Smith.
- This episode features the first TARDIS not owned by The Doctor from Series 1 in 2005.
- The fact that Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor plays football and very well in this episode is entirely coincidental. In the original comic strip David Tennant's Doctor also played football and also very well.
