- TriviaThe Doctor asks the Silurian scientist if he has any celery. This refers to the habit of the Fifth Doctor, who always wore a sprig of celery. The celery was a cure for several poisons that affect Time Lords.
- GoofsAccording to The Doctor in "Flesh and Stone", Amy can remember the clerics and the Weeping Angels who fall into the space/time crack because she's a time traveler. Yet in this episode she forgets Rory after he's absorbed by the crack, which is explained as Rory was from Amy's personal life and the Clerics and Angels weren't. The Doctor explained this as he tried to keep Rory in Amy's mind, trying to help her remember him.
- Quotes
The Doctor: I'm sorry, I didn't know. You have to believe me. They're better than this.
Ambrose: This is our planet!
The Doctor: We had a chance here.
Ambrose: Leave us alone!
The Doctor: In future, when you talk about this, you tell people that there was a chance but you were so much less than the best of humanity.

I'd have to praise the little guy that played Elliot, possibly the most interesting character of the lot. Kid did a great job. I'd also like to praise Nia Roberts, little dubious in Part 1, but she was very good in this better scripted episode.
Second best bit, Nasreen and Amy discussing the future of Earth and Silurians with the Silurian leader. A great scene, really well played out. However they saved the best til last, the crack in the wall rears its ugly head once again, and the worst thing happens... It makes the opening of Part 1 seem relevant.
Silurian culture is very interesting, I praise Chris Chibnall for creating an interesting Silurian Society, there are different factions, different ideas and infighting.
I wasn't entirely in love with Part 1, I was fairly bored for most of it, and same for the best part of this one too. Watching it I keep thinking 'we've been here before, nothing original on show. The action scenes are pretty good, but overall it's just unsatisfying, it was too long over two episodes. 6/10
