==Trivia==
===General===
*The battle loops back to the beginning at the end and stops after the Tenth Doctor's first line, when he turns off the camera with his sonic screwdriver to end the loop.
**According to an AMA with Lloyd, the time loop was originally going to be ten minutes long, but it would have made it impossible to finish and upload the video.
*After the Tenth Doctor uses his sonic screwdriver, the music stops immediately and doesn't play during the credits.
*This is the first time Peter has done the [[heroin joke]] in the [[Behind the Scenes|behind the scenes]] video rather than Lloyd.
*On August 22, 2016, "Doctor Doctor, I swallowed a bone. Are you choking? No, I really did!" was written in the description of the video. This is a reference to the "Doctor Doctor" joke.
**The line in question is the one during the Tenth Doctor's regeneration and the mysterious voice behind him.
*At 1:14-1:26, the screen in the TARDIS is playing ''Minecraft''.
**This is an episode of "Shadow of Israphel", a famous series from YouTubers The Yogscast as confirmed by member Martyn Littlewood on Twitter.<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Gi9-UZKYo4</ref>

===Continuity===
*This is the second time a rapper speaks directly to the [[announcer]].
*This is the second battle where both of the title rappers are fictional.
*This is the third battle to feature two versions of [[Doctor Who|the same character]], following [[Gandalf vs Dumbledore]] and [[Michael Jackson vs Elvis Presley]].
**This is also the second battle to have two actors playing the same person, after Michael Jackson vs Elvis Presley.
*This is the third battle in which a significant section of [[Doctor Who|a rapper]]'s line(s) did not have subtitles, after [[John Lennon vs Bill O'Reilly]] and [[Nice Peter vs EpicLLOYD]].
*Unlike the previous battles starting with [[Steve Jobs vs Bill Gates]], this did not have a [[Epic Dance Battles of History|dance battle]].
**It is possible that a dance battle was filmed as George Watsky is seen in front of the white screen with the Dalek in the behind the scenes video.
*This is the first time two guest stars from previous battles reappear.
**[[Zach Sherwin]] ([[Albert Einstein]]) as [[Doc Brown]]
**[[George Watsky]] ([[William Shakespeare]]) as the Fourth Doctor.

===References===
*The opening of this battle is a reference to the title sequence of the 2005 ''Doctor Who'' television series.
*The voices saying "Doctor", which can be heard during the Doctor's regeneration, mirror the portrayal of the Fifth Doctor's regeneration in "The Caves of Androzani". In the serial, the heads of the Doctor's companions appear around him as he lies on the ground in pain, and encourage him to stay strong during the process of his regeneration.
**The second voice heard during the Doctor's regeneration sounds similar to the Doctor's robotic dog companion K-9.
*[[Marty McFly]]'s guitar solo during Doc Brown's second verse is a reference to his performance of Johnny B. Goode at the Enchantment Under the Sea dance in the first two ''Back to the Future'' movies.

===Errors===
*At 1:13, when the Fourth Doctor is laying on the ground, he does not have a hat on. When he stands up in the next shot, however, he does.
*At 1:35, Doc Brown's hand gets cut off.
