At House of Lords questions, the matter of any unpublished documents about the death of Tsar Nicholas II and his family is raised.

Ted Willis (playing himself) then meets with the Viscount Tremayne of Trevellick.

As a young man, Tremayne was summoned by King George V and Lloyd George to mount an expedition to rescue the Imperial Family of Russia.
