The Great Queen Spider was taken from "Planet of the Spiders", a 1974 serial of Doctor Who, and is later referenced in the 2017 Role-playing video game South Park: The Fractured but Whole. Accuracy The episode's suggestion that the Vatican enforces stricter bans on priests engaging in heterosexual sex has been disproven. In February 2019, the Vatican acknowledged that the Catholic Church had secretly enacted rules to protect clergy who not only violated their vow of celibacy, regardless of the gender of their sexual partner, but who also fathered children by doing so as well.
