ALL LAUGH

0:00:130:00:15

Six bedrooms?

0:00:160:00:17

I've got audio equipment. so some extra space would be good.

0:00:170:00:21

I'd quite like underfloor heating.

0:00:210:00:23

-This is bedroom five...

-It hasn't got a door...?

0:00:300:00:33

..and bedroom six is through there.

0:00:330:00:36

As you can see,

0:00:380:00:40

this offers more space.

Oh, wow!

0:01:070:01:08

Oh, mate, check out the tower.

0:01:100:01:11

I'm afraid the tower is unsafe.

0:01:110:01:13

Bill, look at it!

0:01:150:01:16

Yeah, but why's it so cheap?

0:01:180:01:20

This place is great!

0:01:200:01:22

The rooms are HUGE!

0:01:220:01:23

Can I move in tonight? My halls are kicking me out.

0:01:230:01:26

Yes. Yes, of course.

0:01:260:01:28

0:04:110:04:13

That's all you've got?

0:04:150:04:16

-I thought you'd have loads.

-Thanks for helping, yeah?

0:04:180:04:21

You should hire this out.

0:04:250:04:27

Like a removal service...

0:04:280:04:30

Removals? Bill, I'm a Time Lord...

0:04:300:04:33

-"Time Lord"? What's that? Your job?

-No!

0:04:330:04:35

It's, er, my people, my species.

0:04:350:04:39

Doesn't sound like a species.

0:04:390:04:41

Sounds posh, like, "Yes, my lord!" Doff my cap.

0:04:410:04:44

Oh, well, that's why I gave it up. Ran away.

0:04:440:04:46

-SHE SCOFFS

-"Time Lords"(!) That's hilarious!

0:04:460:04:49

-Do you wear robes and big hats?

-No, big collars mostly.

0:04:490:04:53

-Do you want the postcode?

-Sorry?

-To find the house?

0:04:550:04:57

Bill, the TARDIS uses multi-dimensional

0:04:590:05:01

space-time coordinates.

0:05:010:05:04

So, you know where it is?

0:05:040:05:05

OK, right, put the postcode in here.

0:05:060:05:08

Saw the bedroom. Do you sleep here?

0:05:100:05:13

If I need to.

0:05:130:05:14

-Done?

-Yeah.

-No!

-Unless we've regenerated or had a big lunch.

-"Regenerated"?

0:05:210:05:25

Oh, the questions, the questions, the questions...!

0:05:270:05:30

Just remember "Time Lords". That's enough for now.

0:05:400:05:42

Oh, I'll use the TARDIS. Take it all to your room.

0:05:420:05:45

Firstly, I don't know which one my room is,

0:05:450:05:47

and, secondly, that's weird and I want to make a good impression.

0:05:470:05:51

It's cool, I'll just, um...

0:05:510:05:53

get everything out of the TARDIS and then you can go.

0:05:530:05:55

Thanks for the lift, though!

0:05:550:05:57

Renting.

0:06:060:06:07

I thought you were students?

0:06:070:06:09

Yeah, I was like, "What's the catch?"

0:06:090:06:11

but, actually, it's fine, just a bit draughty.

Interesting. I'll help you in.

0:06:300:06:33

No, no, no - it's fine! You really don't have to!

0:06:330:06:36

-Really not a problem!

-No! Wait! Honestly, um...if you just...

0:06:360:06:39

If you just go and do history or whatever...

0:06:430:06:44

Hey! Where have you been? I thought...

0:06:440:06:46

Oh, you're the Doctor.

0:06:460:06:47

-Yes, hi, can I get past?

-He's just helping with the move.

0:06:470:06:51

-Helping?

-He's just my...

-Friend.

-..grandad.

0:06:510:06:54

Wait, I don't look old enough to...

0:06:540:06:56

..to hold that box for very long.

0:06:560:06:59

Yeah!

0:06:590:07:00

How exciting is this?!

0:07:020:07:04

Oh, wow!

0:07:040:07:05

Doctor! Legend!

0:07:050:07:07

He's my grandad.

0:07:080:07:09

Aw! Come on!

0:07:090:07:11

Father, at least. Please!

0:07:110:07:12

All right, grand-FATHER.

0:07:120:07:14

You really can go now, though.

0:07:170:07:19

Thanks for the help. Job done!

0:07:210:07:23

OK.

0:07:250:07:26

Bye.

0:07:260:07:27

Bye.

0:07:300:07:31

He's your grandad? That's awesome!

0:07:340:07:36

Mine went greypacking on the Great Wall Of China with his boyfriend,

0:07:360:07:39

but they got arrested for trying to steal a bit.

0:07:390:07:41

-Bit of what?

-The wall.

0:07:410:07:43

OK...!

0:07:430:07:45

-You want a hand?

-Uh, yeah.

0:07:450:07:48

Thanks.

0:07:510:07:52

I keep thinking there's going to be one of those bookcases

0:07:570:07:59

that you pull special books and it's a secret passage!

0:07:590:08:02

-Yeah.

-Spooky!

PAVEL'S RECORD SKIPS >

0:08:100:08:12

Met Pavel on my first day.

0:08:150:08:17

Often does this.

0:08:170:08:18

Sits in his room for days. Says it gets him in the zone.

0:08:180:08:22

All these lot are empty.

0:08:230:08:24

Yeah, this is nice.

0:08:280:08:30

I picked my room before I'd even seen up here.

0:08:300:08:33

I thought you wanted the tower?

0:08:330:08:35

Yeah, I wish. Can't find a way in.

0:08:350:08:37

There's a freshers' party in the park tonight.

0:08:390:08:41

This lot aren't interested, but it could be fun.

0:08:410:08:44

WIND WHISTLES

0:08:440:08:45

Or not! But either way, I was saying we should throw our own party.

0:08:460:08:51

0:08:510:08:53

Freestyle! Boom!

SHE LAUGHS

0:08:550:08:57

Yeah, sounds good.

0:08:570:08:58

-See you later, then.

-Sure.

0:09:040:09:06

Here you go, Mum. My own place.

0:09:440:09:47

-Like something bad's going to happen.

-Have to get a landline.

0:10:140:10:16

"Landline"! What is this? Scotland?

0:10:160:10:19

Actually, I was unpacking just now and heard this...tapping,

0:10:190:10:24

-little footsteps, like, in the room above?

-What?!

0:10:240:10:27

Oo-oo-oo-ooh!

0:10:270:10:29

Maybe it's a little doll that's come to life.

0:10:290:10:31

Or a massive, freaky spider.

0:10:310:10:34

-Probably just a mouse.

-Yeah, we know! Just messing with her.

0:10:340:10:38

"Mice"? If there's mice, I'm leaving.

0:10:460:10:48

-Paul, go and have a look.

-Why me?

-You're physically the biggest.

0:10:490:10:53

And the most expendable.

0:10:530:10:54

CLUNK! >

0:10:540:10:56

It's in the kitchen.

-I thought...

0:11:370:11:39

He'd gone home! Me, too!

0:11:390:11:41

Isn't any what?

0:11:410:11:42

Central heating.

0:11:420:11:44

I've been looking around. Inside and out.

0:11:440:11:46

Very interesting. Lots of wood.

0:11:460:11:48

Why are you still here?

0:11:480:11:49

Do you know what that is?

0:11:510:11:53

That's an oil-burning heater.

0:11:530:11:55

You might need it.

0:11:550:11:56

There's no washing machine either. The hob is from the '30s.

0:11:560:11:59

-Thanks very much.

-The power sockets will not take your devices.

0:11:590:12:03

-Oh! I thought it was just my room.

-No, no, no. They're out of date.

0:12:030:12:06

What's that...smell?

0:12:080:12:10

-Is that Chinese food? I love Chinese!

-Doctor...!

0:12:120:12:15

There might be a few old things, but it just needs updating.

0:12:170:12:21

It's not like there's some massive mystery going on.

0:12:210:12:24

Did you hear the trees creaking outside when we arrived?

0:12:240:12:26

Yeah. It was the wind.

0:12:260:12:28

There wasn't any wind.

0:12:280:12:30

You should find another house.

0:12:320:12:34

Mm, I don't think so.

0:12:340:12:36

The rooms are really big.

0:12:360:12:37

Exactly, it's still the best place for the money.

0:12:370:12:40

-I'll just call the landlord, sort it out.

-You can't. No reception.

0:12:400:12:43

OK, so I'll go down the hill...

0:12:430:12:45

Oh!

0:12:450:12:46

Hi.

0:12:460:12:47

Didn't hear you come in.

0:12:500:12:52

For a man such as myself, discretion is second nature.

0:12:530:12:55

So, a gathering. You're all here... No, except one.

0:12:550:13:00

- Pavel's upstairs. - And one in addition.

0:13:000:13:03

-He's the Doctor.

-Doctor...?

0:13:030:13:05

-BILL STAMMERS

-Yeah, he's my...grandfather.

0:13:050:13:08

-You're assisting with the relocation?

-That's right, yeah.

0:13:080:13:11

It's a heartbreaking experience, to leave one's charge behind.

0:13:110:13:14

All alone in the big, wide world.

0:13:140:13:16

Indeed. Yes.

0:13:160:13:17

-You got children?

-I...

0:13:190:13:20

Yes, a daughter.

0:13:200:13:22

But I'm most fortunate. She's still under my protection.

0:13:220:13:25

So long as that's the case, I'm most content.

0:13:250:13:28

So, I was calling to see if everything was satisfactory?

0:13:280:13:31

Actually, there are a few things...

0:13:310:13:33

-Yes, I see. Go on.

-No central heating?

0:13:330:13:35

-The power sockets are wrong.

-A landline.

-Some new furniture.

0:13:350:13:38

-There's no mobile reception.

-And some curtains. Carpets?

0:13:380:13:40

-Have you got a cat?

-CRUNCH!

0:13:400:13:43

HE MUNCHES

0:13:450:13:48

A cat?

0:13:500:13:51

Yeah, um, Harry said that he heard some noise upstairs,

0:13:540:13:57

like walking around?

0:13:570:14:00

No cats.

0:14:000:14:02

No pets.

0:14:020:14:03

You understand I won't be able to do any of this tonight?

0:14:030:14:06

But as soon as possible. Yes. Knock on wood.

0:14:060:14:09

-Do what I can.

-WOOD CREAKS

0:14:090:14:11

That's another thing, the house is really creaky.

0:14:110:14:13

Everything you touch, it's like, "Eeeeuuuurrr!"

0:14:130:14:16

It's unavoidable, my dear.

0:14:160:14:17

-How do you get into the tower?

-You don't!

0:14:170:14:20

The tower is specifically excluded from the terms of our agreement.

0:14:220:14:25

Oh, right, well...

0:14:270:14:28

Thank you. No tower. Got it.

0:14:280:14:31

Right.

0:14:310:14:32

-Are you staying here tonight?

-Yes.

0:14:370:14:40

-No, he's not.

-I'm not sure.

-There's no reason to.

0:14:400:14:43

-I probably will.

-There isn't a bed, so...

0:14:430:14:46

All right.

0:14:460:14:47

Sorry, excuse me. Sorry, sorry, sorry...

0:14:480:14:50

Who, um...

0:14:520:14:53

Who's the Prime Minister?

0:14:530:14:55

I beg your pardon?

0:14:560:14:58

Margaret Thatcher? Harriet Jones? Wilson? Eden?

0:14:580:15:01

HE CHUCKLES

0:15:010:15:03

I think it's better to leave your granddaughter with her friends.

0:15:030:15:06

They seem respectable, and I'll keep an eye, of course.

0:15:060:15:10

TUNING FORK PINGS

0:15:140:15:16

I'll attend to your requirements in the morning.

0:15:160:15:18

In the meantime, sleep well.

0:15:180:15:20

TUNING FORK SINGS

0:15:200:15:22

I take it back. You're fine.

0:15:290:15:31

HE'S weird.

0:15:310:15:33

Oh! The washing machine!

THUNDER RUMBLES

0:15:380:15:40

He's not there.

0:15:460:15:48

SCRITCHING

0:15:480:15:49

-That's it!

-SCRITCHING

0:15:510:15:53

That's the noise I heard.

0:15:530:15:55

Fascinating...

0:15:550:15:57

SCRITCHING NEARBY

0:15:570:15:59

HE THUDS

0:16:030:16:05

It's just pipes. I'm going to bed.

0:16:050:16:07

-Yeah. Might go up, as well.

-Me, too - locking my door though!

0:16:070:16:11

Grandfather?

0:16:110:16:12

Hello! Yeah.

0:16:150:16:17

Perhaps you should leave now?

0:16:170:16:19

SHE CREAKS

0:31:450:31:48

What?

0:31:500:31:52

You've got something...just...

0:31:520:31:55

just there.

0:31:550:31:57

I'm a celebrity, get me out of here, yeah?

0:31:580:32:01

Bill...

SCRITCHING

0:32:030:32:06

THUD!

0:32:060:32:08

Cockroaches. Had them on my gap year in Morocco.

0:32:080:32:11

No problem! Let's go.

0:32:110:32:12

Shireen.

0:32:120:32:14

-SHE GASPS

-Oh, no! Oh, no!

0:32:140:32:17

It's in my foot!

0:32:170:32:19

LOUD SCRITCHING

0:32:190:32:21

Shireen!

0:32:210:32:23

SHE SCREAMS

0:32:230:32:24

HUMMING

0:32:240:32:26

I...I don't understand...she's...

0:32:270:32:29

It's upsetting, I understand.

0:32:290:32:33

But Father says we have to survive...

0:32:330:32:36

Eliza, do not fear this man,

0:32:420:32:45

he says he might be able to make you well.

0:32:450:32:48

Bill, how are you?

0:32:490:32:51

Yeah, yeah, I'm OK. Shireen...

0:32:530:32:56

-The lice?

-Yeah.

0:32:560:32:58

Harry, too. Um, in brief - he's her dad.

0:32:580:32:59

He's been keeping her alive with the bugs for about 70 years.

0:32:590:33:02

Your friends are the food. I said that I could...help.

0:33:020:33:05

Now, you must be Eliza. How are you feeling? Rotten?

0:33:090:33:13

I am quite well.

0:33:130:33:15

-Administer your treatment, Doctor.

-What's the medical history here?

0:33:150:33:19

-What happened? Eliza, you were very ill?

-Yes.

-yes?

0:33:190:33:22

The doctors had, um, given up on you,

0:33:230:33:28

but then, one day, your father brings you a present...

0:33:280:33:30

Where did you find them? On the roof? In the garden?

0:33:300:33:33

'You find the insects. You bring them into the house

0:33:350:33:38

'because you want to show them to her.

0:33:380:33:41

'Presumably, just to... just to amuse her.'

0:33:410:33:45

-You couldn't have known what they were...

-Can you help her or not?

0:33:460:33:49

I am helping! This is me helping!

0:33:490:33:51

How did you find out their unique abilities?

0:33:510:33:55

Did you bring them in here?

0:33:550:33:56

You brought them in here, right, but what activated them?

0:33:560:33:59

-You use a tuning fork now, but...

-Pavel had that record on, a violin?

0:33:590:34:02

High-pitched sounds. Yes.

'The music wakes them. They set to work, and in the morning,'

0:34:240:34:28

you find her revitalised,

0:34:280:34:30

just...slightly wooden.

0:34:300:34:33

-You realise there's a way she can survive...

-Enough!

0:34:360:34:39

No, wait, Doctor - that doesn't make sense.

0:34:430:34:44

Can you not interrupt? I'm doing my thing here.

0:34:440:34:46

But why would he pick up insects from the garden

0:34:460:34:48

-and bring them in to see his ill daughter?

-Everyone loves insects.

0:34:480:34:51

-I don't!

-They're fascinating!

0:34:510:34:53

OK.

0:34:530:34:54

Secondly, he's not wood.

0:34:540:34:57

He's just like us.

0:34:580:35:00

He's...

0:35:000:35:01

Yes...

0:35:010:35:02

So, if he's her father, and she was preserved 70 years ago...

You... Oh!

No flies on you, Bill.

0:35:120:35:14

And no bugs in you.

0:35:140:35:16

I do not understand.

0:35:160:35:18

I forget, you see, your human lifespan -

0:35:180:35:21

it's not long, is it?

0:35:210:35:22

Do not let them trouble you...

0:35:220:35:25

What do you remember of the past, Eliza?

0:35:250:35:27

My...father...

0:35:270:35:30

He knows what's best.

0:35:300:35:33

Yes, the lice preserve the appearance and the voice,

0:35:330:35:35

but not so much the memories.

0:35:350:35:37

-He's not your father. Am I right?

-No! Stop talking!

0:35:370:35:42

Father, what's the matter?

0:35:420:35:44

I don't understand...

0:35:440:35:46

Your father would've had better things to do

0:35:460:35:49

than playing with insects in the garden.

0:35:490:35:53

But he isn't your father.

0:35:530:35:56

When you were ill, he was sent out of the house, by the doctors

0:35:560:35:59

who are failing to save his MOTHER!

0:35:590:36:02

His...mother...?

0:36:020:36:05

'Eliza, he's your son.

0:36:070:36:09

'Your loving son.'

'When you saw what the creatures had done,

0:36:460:36:48

'you understood, didn't you?

0:36:480:36:51

'The lice could keep your mother alive,

0:36:510:36:54

'if you protected them,

0:36:540:36:56

'tamed them, fed them.'

0:36:560:36:59

If you could save the one

0:36:590:37:01

who brought you into this world - wouldn't you?!

0:37:010:37:03

-HE SOBS

-Your silence is a confirmation.

0:37:070:37:10

I did what you told me because I thought you knew best.

0:37:120:37:17

But I...

0:37:180:37:20

-I am your mother?

-Yes...

0:37:200:37:22

And you...

0:37:220:37:23

All these children you've taken!

0:37:260:37:29

You told me it was necessary!

0:37:300:37:32

-That we had no choice.

-That's right, it was.

0:37:320:37:35

It meant we could stay together. Don't you understand? We were happy!

0:37:350:37:39

I kept our lives a secret.

0:37:390:37:43

And a secret we must remain.

0:37:430:37:47

You have brought her nothing but misery and confusion!

0:37:520:37:56

You will be taken, like the others!

0:38:060:38:09

-That was it, no plan. Info dump, then busk.

-Well, start busking!

0:38:090:38:12

Eliza, people have died and will continue to die

0:38:120:38:15

-unless you stop all this right now.

-How can I stop it?!

0:38:150:38:18

You're the parent.

0:38:180:38:20

You're in charge!

0:38:200:38:21

0:38:340:38:36

I control you!

0:38:360:38:37

No.

0:38:390:38:40

It's me.

0:38:410:38:43

I control them.

0:38:440:38:46

Eliza, finish them now, take them, or you'll die!

0:38:470:38:50

They'll destroy you!

0:38:500:38:52

What's the point in surviving if you never see anyone,

0:38:520:38:55

if you hide yourself away from the world?

0:38:550:38:58

When did you last open the shutters?

0:39:200:39:21

My son...

0:39:230:39:25

Leave my side at last.

0:39:270:39:29

Go and see the world.

0:39:300:39:32

No! I don't want to!

0:39:320:39:34

0:41:300:41:33

-I see what?

-Well, you don't have to go to outer space to find monsters.

0:41:330:41:39

There's plenty of things that want to kill you right here on Earth.

0:41:390:41:42

-Actually, I'm not that hungry.

-Well, I am.

-Obviously!

0:41:450:41:49

OK. You can take the rest of the night off.

0:41:510:41:54

Go on, go do whatever it is you do.

0:41:540:41:55
