=== Tropes ===
* [[Alien Kudzu]]
* [[Break Out the Museum Piece]]: The rocket. Later, a motor car, though we don't get to see that.
Line 21 ⟶ 22:
* [[Dirty Coward]]: Fewsham
* [[The Dog Bites Back]]: Even a [[Dirty Coward]] can be pushed too far.
* [[Doomed New Clothes]]: A behind-the-scenes example. Wendy Padbury liked her second costume (the leather trouser suit) so much that she bought it -- andit—and BBC bureaucracy required her to pay before the start of filming. Then, in the scene where Zoe has to crawl through a tunnel, the paint on the set turned out to be still wet.
* [[Emotionless Girl]]: Gia Kelly.
* [[Engaging ChevronsPadding]]: The rocket launch, with a full one-minute countdown.
* [[Hair Decorations]]: Gia seems to think she's cuter with something that looks like a [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/File:GiaKelly.jpg coffee cup] attached to her hair.
* [[Mishmash Museum]]: Displays about [[Leonardo da Vinci]], [[Yuri Gagarin]], and [[Teleporters and Transporters]].
