William Russell later appeared in An Adventure in Space and Time as Harry the security guard, and in the same story Jamie Glover (son of Julian Glover and Isla Blair) played Russell himself.

Synopsis

Ian Chesterton is going to tell you a story of something that happened over 30 years ago.

An older Sir Ian

Plot

Ian Chesterton is participating in a video that will tell people just how the events of him meeting Richard the Lionheart went.

He recalls his adventures with the First Doctor and tells us he is absolutely certain that the Doctor is still travelling in time and space, knowing about regeneration possibly due to meeting the Doctor's seventh incarnation earlier in his life.

He told us how the Doctor was old when he was young. He later went on to say that he kept a knight statue within his study room as a reminder of the adventure. He tells us if he told people everything that they'd think he was mad.

He went on to say if he actually wanted people to think he was really mad then he could tell people his name was Sir Ian Chesterton as he was knighted over "700 years ago".

Chesterton makes us aware of how the adventure ended and went back to his book cabinet and began to read. Ian will never forget... the Doctor.
