Borusa promises the Master a new regeneration cycle if he can pull this off (remember that the Time Lords can do that; it [[ChekhovsGun becomes important]] [[Recap/DoctorWho2013CSTheTimeOfTheDoctor much later]]). And the Master seems all too happy to help out, both to finally have a Time Lord body again and because "a cosmos without the Doctor scarcely bears thinking about." He takes a teleport recall device with him to keep in touch with the Time Lords. Hmm...

This is a rarity for ''Series/DoctorWho'' twofold over. First, it's a [[TheNthDoctor multi-Doctor]] adventure, which had only been done once before ("[[Recap/DoctorWhoS10E1TheThreeDoctors The Three Doctors]]") and has only been done four times since then ("[[Recap/DoctorWhoS22E4TheTwoDoctors The Two Doctors]]", "[[Recap/DoctorWho2007CiNSTimeCrash Time Crash]]", "[[Recap/DoctorWho50thASTheDayOfTheDoctor The Day of the Doctor]]" and "[[Recap/DoctorWho2017CSTwiceUponATime Twice Upon a Time]]"[[note]] and, depending on your definition of "multi-Doctor story", [[Recap/DoctorWho2022CENThePowerOfTheDoctor "The Power of the Doctor"]] and [[Recap/DoctorWho60thASTheGiggle "The Giggle"]][[/note]]) in the TV show proper. Second, this was also the [[MilestoneCelebration 20th anniversary special]] for ''Doctor Who'', aired during ''Series/ChildrenInNeed'' night on November 25, 1983 ([[ShortRunInPeru though US broadcasting was two days before, on the actual anniversary date of November 23]]).

"The Giggle" is a multi-Doctor story by some definitions, as 14 and 15 show up.

* OffTheShelfFX: Par for the course for ''Doctor Who''. The "recall device" looks like a bicycle bell stuffed with electronic trickery. On the commentary, Terrance Dicks even snarks, "A Time Lord bicycle bell! Ding-ding!".
** Creator/DavidTennant, in his commentary, refers to it as "The Master's yoyo". Also, the Raston Robot is an "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS19E6Earthshock Earthshock]]" android costume painted silver.
