- Kevin is given the award for Biggest Complete Idiot. He was the Head of the BBC Archives and Boiler Room from 1963 to 1975. He shouts "You've seen the programme, now see the bonfire!" in reference to Compact, Doctor Who and Adam Adament.
- The early programmes weren't live but the costumes were. One caveman says they must "flea" from the Tribe of Gum while the First Doctor sprays Anti Bug.
- Due to a mix-up at the BBC corral The Gunfighters, originally meant for Crackerjack, became for a Doctor Who production.
- The editor of Target tells his writers to write 128 pages and then just stop.
- M.C. Cyber and the Cyberaps sing a song with the lyrics "Fed-up of gold, fed-up of the Doc, he leaves us cold. We prefer Spock!" A man gives the opinion the incidental music needs to be a little more incidental.
- Early regenerations caused problems TV Comic artists because they had Tom Baker's head, Jon Pertwee's body in a Patrick Troughton story with William Hartnell's grandchildren.
- The most asked question of a Time Lord is "Didn't you prefer being Tom Baker?".
- An immeasurable number of children were lost due to the anti-neutralising effect of Anti-Dalek Neutralisers.
