[[Sylvester McCoy]] reprised his role as the [[Seventh Doctor]] thus this story served as an extension of his time as the incumbent Doctor. [[Sophie Aldred]] also reprised her role as [[Ace]]. [[John Leeson]] provided the voice of [[K9]] for the first time since ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]''. Notably this was the first on screen story since ''[[Survival (TV story)|Survival]]'' and thus the first on screen story released during the "wilderness years". This TARDIS team would feature again in the next proper televised story ''[[Dimensions in Time (TV story)|Dimensions in Time]]''.

Despite an apparently fourth-wall-breaking setup, the story would contextualise this as the Doctor taking part on an in-universe quiz show. It was further placed in regular ''Doctor Who'' continuity by the short story ''[[Storm in a Tikka (short story)|Storm in a Tikka]]''. The latter links it to ''[[Dimensions in Time (TV story)|Dimensions in Time]]'', also aired during McCoy's time as the incumbent Doctor, which had the TARDIS team of Ace and K9 also.
