Day 569: The Visitation Part 4

At the end of this story, the Doctor inadvertently starts a large fire in the centre of 1600's London. The implication being, given that it occurred on a street called Pudding Lane, that this is the Great Fire of London of 1666. It's a nice little thing to add to the story, and harkens back to the time where Doctor Who was used to both educate and entertain, giving facts about science and history whilst telling fun adventure stories. In addition to this, it's a fun joke to add, implying that this historical event was started by aliens and not by a mistake made by a baker, although it does have the unfortunate implication that the Doctor is responsible for all of the destruction that occurred due to the fire. At any rate, it's a nice little way to end this relatively simple little story.
