This story was beset with numerous production problems and even political considerations ([[Margaret Thatcher]] had called an election when production began, and the reference to two superpowers in the story would be seen as a reference to the Cold War). ([[DOC]]: ''[[The Depths (documentary)|The Depths]]'') Editing removed many, but some remained in production. | This story was beset with numerous production problems and even political considerations ([[Margaret Thatcher]] had called an election when production began, and the reference to two superpowers in the story would be seen as a reference to the Cold War).
