Continuity
- An ambiguous operation known as Operation: Goldenrod is mentioned in Another Life, Slow Decay and Border Princes, although this novel gives more information about the incident. At the time it happened, Suzie Costello was still part of the team. The Operation involved a piece of hugely complex alien technology that reconfigured itself every once in a while. During sexual congress in its presence, people melted together. The Torchwood archives have an entire room dedicated to it.
- Cannibalism also features in the episode "Countrycide" and the novel Another Life.
- Jack makes a reference to his missing two years in the novel, claiming that some areas of his past are a bit vague. He claims he may have been a sailor at one time in his life, but this is presumably a joke.
- Rhys first mentions Lucy going on a diet in the novel Another Life.
- PC Jimmy Mitchell also appears in Another Life.
