Worldbuilding

to be added

Notes

• The story heavily implies that Archibald is in fact the biological father of Gordon (presumably due to an affair between Archibald and Gordon's mother Lillian McDougal). This was done to resolve a dispute between the BBC and the Haisman estate over Archibald's relationship to the Brigadier, given that Alistair had already been established as the Brig's grandfather.
• The title of the story is a quotation from William Shakespeare's play The Tempest.

Continuity

• Archibald lives in Cromer. (TV: Twice Upon a Time)
