When writing ''[[The Gallifrey Chronicles (novel)|The Gallifrey Chronicles]]'' he noted, "It seems absolutely bizarre to say it at this point but the BBC were keeping their options open.

[[Nimon]]s . . . that bit in ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'' where [[Bessie]]'s got a remote control . . . I remember it all!' and I understand that impulse, but . . . well, we know he got his memories back.
