The villains try to convince the main characters they are who they're pretending to be, with varying levels of success.

There are several moments where a seemingly-human character's limbs bend in impossible ways (too many joints, or joints bending the wrong way).

Body horror from the 20 minute mark onwards for a majority of the episode. Includes limb extension and growth, increase in size of characters, eye growth, jaw extension, teeth growth into fangs, the transformation of a leg to have two sets of knee joints (akin to a bird's leg) and a character bending backwards and then stretching their head through their legs, then crawling quickly.

Not in the sense of eyes being damaged, but in the sense of a transformation involving disturbing changes in body proportions including eyes.

It looks briefly as if one of the main characters is going to die at the climax, but there is a last-moment rescue.

Bernard Cribbins, who plays Wilf, makes an appearance as a wheelchair user in the final scene, he did use a wheelchair in real life at that time as he was himself an elderly man and has unfortunately passed away since.

With the stipulation that there is a separate question covering suicide carried through to completion, the answer to this question is no.

It's implied by cameras being set in vents and portholes but it isn't actually shown if they were being watched or not, it's more atmospheric

Not directly referenced but there is one line where David Tennant’s native Scottish accent comes out a bit which was a bit of a fourth wall break for me

The doctor does grab Wilf’s wheelchair suddenly but it was to move him out of danger of a plane crash, if it wasn’t to move him out of danger it would be considered assault.

Donna doesn’t know the pronouns of a person and says “he? She? They?” The doctor corrects her that the person used she/her pronouns (idk how he knows this it’s never really brought up and they person is dead so it’s not like they could ask) and they move on
