In perhaps their most ambitious outing the CIA put Six on course to save his Second self and thus secure his own existence. The now significantly aged Two is on an assignment to dissuade Dastari from his experiments in time-travel but isn't having much luck. Working with the Sontaran Stike and the Androgum Chessene the bio-geneticist abducts the younger of the two Doctors and takes him to a villa in Seville. Nice holiday if you can get it you might think. But he's about to be turned into an Androgum himself, setting in motion a race for Six to rescue him and put everything right. Turns out the one with the Beatle barnet was right about Dastari's genetic meddling being unethical. Chessene's been raised from idiotic to nearly a genius, though she can't contain her baser instincts. This is about the only thing she's got in common with her dimwitted lackey Shockeye, as the station's cook is obsessed with scoffing whatever he can get his hands on. And there are a number of interesting pieces for budding Season 6B theorists to ponder. Number one surely being how both the Second Doctor and Jamie have managed to age so much between 'The War Games' and now. There's a case for saying that the CIA offered him the chance to at least delay his enforced regeneration into his Third incarnation if he agrees to become their agent. Having agreed to do this he's allowed a companion to accompany him, so he gets Jamie McCrimmon back- albeit with his memories altered. He believes Victoria to be away studying graphology, a state of events implanted into his mind by the Agency. His TARDIS interior and console are different from those the Doctor knew so well from 'The Power Of The Daleks' to 'The War Games' and he's been given a Stattenheim remote control. It allows him to as the name implies remotely control his beloved police box and it and the overhaul of its insides are said to be rewards from the Agency for his success in his earlier 'World Game' mission with Serena. It's all fantastic fun and a nice swansong for Pat as the Doctor- he sadly died just two years after the broadcast of this story.
