I once made the mistake of commenting on the similarity between this and Remembrance on Outpost Gallifrey and why anyone didn't remark up on this at the time. I activated a very angry Jon Blum, who went on to explain (angrily) that the Production Office was struggling for scripts and it was all quite last minute. In later years I'd learned that Kevin Clarke, on being invited to pitch his idea to Cartmel and JNT, arrived at the office with zero ideas, until in a moment of improvisation said "Well, the thing about the Doctor is... that he's God" (or words to that effect).
A glorious summer's day jaunt of a story, set in November. Bonus Brigadier cameo too.
I haven't watched this for maybe 25 years. Silver hubris.
Isn't the American called Mrs Hackensack? Which was a sort of craze at the time. "I'm checking out my roots." "Tis wise with crops at this time of year." That was always a line that stuck in my head. And there was a Shakespeare reference. "a palpable hit."
I think too, and this will be a JNT thing, that it was mostly filmed around Arundel. I think Lady Peinforte's house is in Bramber and was used a few times.
Pretty sure Cartmel was the jazz obsessive.
"Nice rocket technology, Doctor"

Sadly the last acting role for Anton Diffring before his death too.
