A Victorian Interlude (short story) was a Brief Encounter short story published in Doctor Who Magazine. It featured Henry Gordon Jago and George Litefoot in their first appearance since they debuted in 1977's The Talons of Weng-Chiang.
Summary
Gordon Henry Jago and Professor Litefoot meet in a public house to nervously discuss their latest adventure; they have acquired a gatling gun with which to exterminate the remaining giant rats in London's sewers. Both of them face the task with trepidation and wish that the Doctor was once again with them to face the dangers ahead, but realise that, in his absence, someone must deal with the creatures. On their way out, Litefoot bumps into a young man in cricketing gear, apologises, and departs.
