Behind the Scenes

Since actor Bernard Horsfall played both Lemuel Gulliver and a nameless Time Lord in The Mind Robber and The War Games, Marc Platt decided to explain that the same person appeared in all three stories. No on-screen link exists between the three roles, other than the same actor playing all three characters.
