Line 992:
** River's relationship with the Doctor, a woman who falls in love with a time traveller and meets him in the wrong order throughout her life is a pretty obvious shout-out to ''[[The Time Traveler's Wife]]''.
** The name of Bowie Base One in "The Waters of Mars" is a shoutout to [[David Bowie]]'s song ''Life On Mars''. {{spoiler|It later also works as a shoutout to ''Space Oddity'' with astronauts stranded and knowing that they are about to die}}. In the same episode, there's a shout out to ''[[28 Days Later]]'' with a character becoming infected just by looking up and a single drop falling on to their eye from above.
** In "The Runaway Bride", the Racnoss Webstar bears a striking resemblance to the Cylon Basestar of the reimagined ''[[Battlestar Galactica
** The Toclafane bear an uncanny resemblance to the spheres from ''[[Phantasm (Film)|Phantasm]]'', right down to {{spoiler|being powered by the brains of the creator's human victims}}. Bonus points for the similarity between [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUizt6kMgbQ this] and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3ieQxm_M2I this].
** In "Flesh and Stone", the ship is referred to as "[[Star Trek: The Next Generation|Galaxy-class]]".
