Tom Baker to perform the monologue, with King admitting that "the whole band are big fans of Dr Who and Tom Baker, so we thought he'd be ideal. Tom heard the track and immediately agreed to perform on it". The track was intended as an interlude between two sides of the album, as if it was a vinyl record, but Chad later stated he regretted putting it on the album. The original idea was to package the CD version of the album in a 12" gatefold sleeve to replicate the vinyl experience, but was abandoned due to possible issues with getting it stocked by retailers.

And I didn't want to make another disillusioned, really dark record", and that "anyone who gets Little Kix knows it's a good album" Draper refused to tour or promote the album.
