Publisher's summary
After years as a companion to the Second Doctor, Jamie McCrimmon was returned to his own world and his own time, and his memories of his travels were erased, until now.

A visitor from beyond the stars needs to explore Jamie’s past, and discover what went wrong. What happened in the year 1688, when the TARDIS landed in London, and the Doctor, Jamie and Zoe were welcomed into the court of King James II.

It was the year of the Glorious Revolution. And the birth of a whole new history…

Cast

 * Jamie McCrimmon - Frazer Hines
 * The Visitor / King James II - Andrew Fettes

Continuity

 * The Time Lord mentions Jamie's visit to the Moon (DW: The Moonbase) and his encounters with the Daleks (DW: The Evil of the Daleks, CC: Fear of the Daleks), the Cybermen (DW: The Moonbase, DW: The Tomb of the Cybermen, DW: The Wheel in Space, DW: The Invasion), the Macra (DW: The Macra Terror) and the Krotons (DW: The Krotons). Once his memories are restored, Jamie goes on to mention the Ice Warriors (DW: The Ice Warriors, DW: The Seeds of Death), the Quarks (DW: The Dominators) and the War Games (DW: The War Games).
 * James II mentions to the Doctor, Jamie and Zoe that the English Catholics were falsely accused of having started the Great Fire of London in 1666 during the reign of his elder brother Charles II, who was a Protestant. In actuality, it was started when a Terileptil weapon overloaded in a bakery on Pudding Lane. The Doctor's fifth incarnation played a major role in causing the fire. (DW: The Visitation) Ironically, the Fourth Doctor, arriving shortly before his future self's departure, was wrongly accused of starting the fire only hours later. (DW: Pyramids of Mars, ST: The Republican's Story) His involvement in the fire remained a source of embarrassment for the Doctor in his sixth incarnation. (BFA: Point of Entry, BFA: The Marian Conspiracy, BFA: Doctor Who and the Pirates) Furthermore, during the Doctor's first incarnation, the TARDIS had materialised in London, specifically outside the burning house of George Mortimer, shortly after the Great Fire began. The First Doctor proceeded to rescue George, his wife Helen and their children Ida and Alan and took them on a trip to the Andromeda Galaxy in the far future. It is possible that, for a brief period after the First Doctor's arrival in 1666, that there were three separate incarnations of the Doctor co-existing in the same timeframe and in close promixity to one another. (DWAN: Doctor Who and the Invasion from Space)
 * While arguing with the Doctor about altering history, Jamie refers to Professor Zaroff (DW: The Underwater Menace), Ramón Salamander (DW: The Underwater Menance) and Tobias Vaughn (DW: The Invasion).
 * After being returned to his own time by the Time Lords (DW: The War Games), Jamie married Kirsty McLaren (DW: The Highlanders). They had at least eight children and numerous grandchildren by 1788.
 * The First Doctor previously met James II's paternal grandfather, King James I, in 1605 and 1609 (MA: The Plotters, MA: The Empire of Glass) whereas the First and Second Doctor's former companion Polly Wright unwittingly helped his father King Charles I to escape from Roundhead captivity in December 1648 (PDA: The Roundheads).
 * The Nemesis statue entered orbit around Earth on 23 November 1688, several weeks after the events of this story, as it did on that date once every 25 years from 1638 to 1988. It is possible that the passage of the Nemesis statue may have heralded the outbreak of the Glorious Revolution. (DW: Silver Nemesis)
 * Jamie previously disguised himself as a woman in BFA: Prison in Space.
 * During his fifth incarnation, the Doctor and his companions Nyssa and Tegan Jovanka visited a replica of the Palace of Whitehall in the city of Lupara on Luparis, which had been created by the Hexagora from their records of 16th century London. (BFA: Hexagora)
 * While fleeing from a Terravore on a police speedboat on the River Thames, the Sixth Doctor told his companion Evelyn Smythe that he had once passed under the original London Bridge with King James II in a boat. (BFA: The Crimes of Thomas Brewster)
