"The story is set in (I think) 2018, in Australia."

Not just in Australia, but in the European area too. How did they manage to film in so many exotic locations on such a shoestring budget? Amazing... 

Of course in 2018, it won't be the political madman Salamander that we have to worry about, but the political madman Trump. Sometimes, reality is even scarier than fiction. 

And of course, it's one of the few times that Australia manages to get a mention in DOCTOR WHO. Therefore, I'll simply make the most of the opportunity and enjoy it.

I studied the map on show in the story and to be honest, I've struggled to find those locations in real life. However, as the serial in still set in the future, I can only assume that those locations don't exist yet.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it! 

"Does this mean that a future Doctor will have the face of Trump?"

You don't need to look "across the pond" to find a country that recognizes Boxing Day, although it's a statutory holiday, it is otherwise meaningless.
