The documentary opened with Colin Baker enthusing about the idea of The Ultimate Foe as "precisely the sort of Doctor Who [he'd] always wanted to do" because of its surreal and paradoxical content. There followed a discussion of the writing problems that plagued the story, given that Robert Holmes had died having only completed episode 13 and Eric Saward was fighting with John Nathan-Turner to protect Holmes' original ending. Pip and Jane Baker offered their recollections of how they came to write episode 14. Clough, Jayston, Baker and Tony Selby told a few stories about actor Geoffrey Hughes.
