Ace, in a [[tree]], then aids the audience and Cedric with a clue as she stares into the distance with [[paper]] rolled to be a [[telescope]] ish thing. She says if someone stranded on a [[desert island]] saw a [[ship]] on the [[horizon]] would they see the ship itself or the top of the [[mast]] first. The paper then teleports from Ace’s hand into Cedric’s. Cedric then unrolls the paper to see a [[drawing]] of the horizon with a boat present. He says it’s as he thought. The Doctor then says he’s got all the clues can he solve the challenge. Cedric then pulls out a cylindrical shaped Earth say it’s that size. This is followed by a wrong answer buzzer sound. He realises he's wrong and doesn't understand why. The Doctor says it's a perfect challenge for his audience to figure why Cedric was wrong. | Ace, in a [[tree]], then aids the audience and Cedric with a clue as she stares into the distance with [[paper]] rolled to be a [[telescope]] ish thing.

Cedric is then in [[Cedric's spaceship|his spaceship]] flashing a torch at a model of the Earth while repeating "[[day time]]" and "[[night time]]" then address the audience as ladies, gentlemen and aliens. He then spins the Earth model. The Doctor gets dizzy watching Cedric spin the model. He then asks the other challengers to provide a clue. Ace says to think about how [[the Sun]] moves during the day. K9 says to think about how the stars move at night. As a map of the stars appears the Doctor asks the audience if they can solve the challenge. ''The Ultimate Challenge'' then cuts to a commercial break. | ||
The first commercial break features an advert for a [[Travel agents (Search Out Space)|travel agents]]. The shop window is full of notices. An [[Astronaut (Search Out Space)|astronaut]], a human and a [[Wolf (Search Out Space)|wolf]] type creature point to a spinning shelf of [[Postcard|postcards]] in the advert. We then get a voiceover by Cedric in an American accent who advertises holidays on [[Mercury]]. [[Ace]] says from their they ship the holidaymakers to [[Venus]]. Cedric then mentions a trip to rocky [[Mars]]. Ace then mentions a trip to [[Jupiter]]. Cedric follows with a mention of [[Saturn]]. | The first commercial break features an advert for a [[Travel agents (Search Out Space)|travel agents]]. The shop window is full of notices.

The Doctor is at a snowscape which he describes as a [[Christmas]] scene. He then encounters a [[polar bear]] and wishes him a nice morning. He then cues the [[snow]] and [[wind|winds]] while complaining that the temperature is now -5 degrees. The Doctor then reads the third challenge. The [[Game of But]]. Someone has to come up with a theory and someone else has to come up with a but. The Doctor says the challenge is between Cedric, Ace and K9. What makes summers hot and winters cold? he asks. | The Doctor is at a snowscape which he describes as a [[Christmas]] scene. He then encounters a [[polar bear]] and wishes him a nice morning.

Cedric is then in his | Cedric is then in his spaceship, now steaming with heat, conducting another experiment. He again states he's not from Earth, but he thinks he knows the answer. He then starts touching a model of the Earth and says that it travels around [[the Sun]]. He then theorises in the [[winter]] the Earth must be further away from the Sun and in the [[summer]] it must be closer by. Ace, sat in a [[dinghy]] in an Australian lake, then tells the audience Cedric is wrong. K9 states there's always another possibility. K9 theorises, while looking at the TARDIS monitors that perhaps in the winter the sun gives out less heat. Ace, putting on an Australian accent, suggests if that were true the whole Earth would have winter at the same time. K9 then does an experiment with some targets outside and suggests in winter the heat is more thinly spread. Ace then experiments with an Earth globe. | ||
The Doctor interrupts them to conduct his own demonstration. The Doctor walks on a dotted circle, around a yellow ball, spinning his umbrella demonstrating the Earth spinning around the Sun. A model Earth spins as he does this. The Doctor repeats his actions and then jumps onto his red platform and shouts that it's time for a commercial break while pointing into the corner. | The Doctor interrupts them to conduct his own demonstration.
