The Sixth Doctor investigates the mysterious bar known only as "Bianca's".

• The Doctor comments about his recent experiences in The Trial of a Time Lord and elements of that story are reflected in this audio.
• The "ask a glass of water" quote that the Doctor attributes to his friend "Douglas" is from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, written by former Doctor Who script editor, Douglas Adams.
• The concept of a Time Ram was introduced in the classic series TV story The Time Monster.
• Sylvester McCoy has a brief, uncredited cameo as the Seventh Doctor at the end of the story.
