Matthew chuckles at the schoolboy who claims to have invented the quotation "The past is another country." This is actually a common misquotation of the opening line of L.P. Hartley's 1953 novel 'The Go-Between': "The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there."
Here future Doctor Who actor Paul McGann plays a character impersonating a doctor. In 2017 Jodie Whittaker, who at the time was also a future Doctor Who actor, would play a character impersonating a doctor in Trust Me (2017).
John Collee wrote the screenplay based on his own 1987 novel "A Paper Mask."
"Schoolboy: [discovers Matthew taking notes of Dr. Hennessey's class photos hanging in school hall] What are you doing? Matthew Harris: I used to be a pupil here. Schoolboy: I don't believe you. I could report you, you know! Matthew Harris: I could probably break your neck. Schoolboy: [pauses briefly] Yes, I expect you could. Why are you writing that down? Matthew Harris: Old time's sake. Schoolboy: The past is another country. Matthew Harris: Who said that? Schoolboy: I said it. I made it up, actually. [Matthew smiles] Schoolboy: What's funny? Matthew Harris: Why did you think I wasn't a pupil here? Schoolboy: Well... your clothes are rather cheap."
