The documentary explores the changes in cast that occurred between [[The Dalek Invasion of Earth]] and The Rescue, with [[Susan Foreman]]'s departure and [[Vicki Pallister]]'s introduction. [[Carole Ann Ford]] was unhappy that her character did little more than scream; she also feared that she would be typecast in that demeanour. Two actors were considered for the role of Vick: Denise Upson and [[Maureen O'Brien]]. Maureen was chosen.
