How about previous-buffer?

Thank you, I've just tried it, but it doesn't take you to the previous helpful buffer - it just jumped to a previously used buffer (an edited file in this instance).

Unlike the built-in help-mode, helpful doesn't re-use the same buffer for new queries, so to "go back" you must use regular buffer switching commands.
