During the 1991/1992 series', Television South (TVS), the company who made the programme, was notified they had lost their ITV franchise and would cease broadcasting at the end of 1992.
Scottish Television took over arrangements for the winter Saturday morning, when J. Nigel Pickard transferred to Scottish Television from TVS. TVS entered into an agreement with Scottish and Warner Bros. to create a new show, What's Up Doc?, like Motormouth, also broadcast from the Maidstone Studios.
