# This was like a winter moon

0:00:020:00:05

# That lights the traveller's way

0:00:050:00:10

# Her smile was like a summer bloom

0:00:100:00:14

# That bursts then fades away

0:00:140:00:19

# My love is night

0:00:190:00:22

# My love is day, my love

0:00:220:00:26

# She is my world. #

0:00:260:00:29

Such sweet music shows your blood to be afire.

0:00:290:00:33

Why wait we on stale custom for consummation?

0:00:330:00:35

Oh yes, tonight's the night!

0:00:350:00:38

Would you enter, bold sir?

0:00:430:00:46

Oh, I would!

0:00:460:00:47

Lilith, this cannot be the home of one so beautiful?

0:00:530:00:57

Forgive me, this is foul.

0:00:570:00:59

Sssh, sad words suit not upon a lover's tongue.

0:00:590:01:04

Oh, your kiss transformed me!

0:01:100:01:13

A suitor should meet his beloved's parents -

0:01:130:01:16

Mother Doomfinger!

0:01:160:01:18

HE WHIMPERS

0:01:180:01:21

And Mother Bloodtide!

0:01:210:01:23

WITCH CACKLES

0:01:230:01:25

WIGGINS SCREAMS

0:01:270:01:29

Soon, at the Hour of Woven Words,

0:01:350:01:39

we shall rise again,

0:01:390:01:40

and this fleeting Earth will perish!

0:01:400:01:44

SHE CACKLES

0:01:440:01:47

But how do you travel in time, what makes it go?

0:02:260:02:30

Oh, take the fun and the mystery out of everything. It just does!

0:02:300:02:33

Hold on tight!

0:02:330:02:34

-Blimey! D'you have to pass a test to fly this thing?

-Yes, and I failed.

0:02:370:02:42

Now, make the most of it, I promised you one trip and one trip only.

0:02:420:02:45

Outside this door...

0:02:450:02:47

brave new world.

0:02:470:02:49

Where are we?

0:02:490:02:51

Take a look...

0:02:510:02:52

After you.

0:02:520:02:55

Oh, you're kidding me.

0:03:020:03:04

You're so kidding me. Oh, my God. We did it!

0:03:040:03:08

We travelled in time.

0:03:080:03:10

Where are we?

0:03:110:03:13

-No, sorry, gotta get used to this, whole new language. WHEN are we?

-Mind out!

0:03:130:03:18

Gardez-loo!

0:03:180:03:20

Somewhere before the invention of the toilet. Sorry about that.

0:03:200:03:23

I've seen worse, I've worked late night-shift in A&E.

0:03:230:03:27

But, are we safe? I mean, can we move around and stuff?

0:03:270:03:30

Course we can, why'd you ask?

0:03:300:03:32

In those films, you step on a butterfly, you change the future of the human race.

0:03:320:03:36

Tell you what then, don't step on any butterflies. What have butterflies ever done to you?

0:03:360:03:41

What if, I dunno, what if I kill my grandfather?

0:03:410:03:45

-Are you planning to?

-No!

-Well then.

0:03:450:03:49

This is London?

0:03:490:03:50

Think so, round about, em, ooh, 1599.

0:03:500:03:55

Oh, but hold on, am I all right?

0:03:550:03:58

-I'm not going to get carted off as a slave, am I?

-Why?

-I'm not exactly white, in case you haven't noticed?

0:03:580:04:03

I'm not even human, Walk about like you own the place, works for me. Besides, you'd be surprised...

0:04:030:04:08

Elizabethan England, it's not so different from your time.

0:04:080:04:12

Look over there

0:04:120:04:13

they've got recycling.

0:04:130:04:15

-Water cooler moment.

-And the Earth will be consumed by flame!

0:04:180:04:22

And, global warming.

0:04:220:04:24

Oh yes, and entertainment, popular entertainment for the masses. If I'm right,

0:04:240:04:31

we're just down the river, by Southwark, right next to...

0:04:310:04:37

Ah yes!

0:04:370:04:38

..the Globe Theatre,

0:04:380:04:40

brand new, just opened!

0:04:400:04:42

Though strictly speaking, it's not a globe, it's a tetradecagon, 14 sides, containing the man himself.

0:04:420:04:49

Whoa, you don't mean...?

0:04:490:04:51

-Is Shakespeare in there!?

-Oh, yes.

0:04:510:04:54

-Miss Jones, will you accompany me to the theatre?

-Mr Smith, I will!

0:04:540:04:58

-When you get home, you can tell everyone you've seen Shakespeare!

-And then I could get sectioned!

0:04:580:05:04

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:05:040:05:09

That's amazing! Just amazing! It's worth putting up with the smell!

0:05:240:05:29

And those are men dressed up as women, yeah?

0:05:300:05:33

London never changes.

0:05:330:05:35

Where's Shakespeare? I want to see Shakespeare! Author, author!

0:05:360:05:40

-Do people shout that, do they shout "author"?

-Author!

0:05:400:05:43

Author!

0:05:430:05:45

AUDIENCE: Author, author, author!

0:05:450:05:49

SHOUTS OF "AUTHOR" CONTINUE

0:05:490:05:51

Well, they do know.

0:05:510:05:52

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:05:580:06:01

He's a bit different to his portraits!

0:06:110:06:15

Genius! He's a genius, THE genius, the most human human there's ever been.

0:06:340:06:39

And now we're gonna hear him speak! Always, he chooses the best words, new, beautiful, brilliant words...

0:06:390:06:46

Shut your big fat mouths!

0:06:460:06:49

LAUGHTER

0:06:490:06:51

-Oh, well!

-You should never meet your heroes.

0:06:530:06:56

You've got excellent taste, I'll give you that! Oh, that's a wig!

0:06:560:06:59

Wind the craft of ancient harm,

0:07:010:07:05

the time approaches for our charm.

0:07:050:07:08

But I know what you're all saying, Love's Labours Lost, that's a funny ending, isn't it? It just stops!

0:07:080:07:15

-Will the boys get the girls? Well, don't get your hose in a tangle. You'll find out soon! AUDIENCE:

-When?

0:07:150:07:20

When? When?

0:07:200:07:21

All in good time, you don't rush a genius.

0:07:220:07:25

When?

0:07:300:07:32

Tomorrow night! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:07:340:07:38

The premiere of my brand new play!

0:07:380:07:41

A sequel, no less!

0:07:410:07:43

And I call it, Love's Labours Won!

0:07:430:07:46

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:07:460:07:48

I'm not an expert but I've never heard of Love's Labours Won.

0:07:520:07:57

Exactly. The lost play. It doesn't exist, only in rumours.

0:07:570:08:01

It's mentioned in lists of his plays, but it never, ever turns up. And no-one knows why.

0:08:010:08:06

Have you got a mini-disc or something?

0:08:060:08:08

We can tape it! We can flog it, sell it when we get home, make a mint.

0:08:080:08:12

-No!

-That would be bad?

0:08:120:08:15

-Yeah, yeah!

-But how come it disappeared in the first place?

0:08:150:08:18

Well... I was just gonna give you a quick little trip in the Tardis,

0:08:180:08:25

but I suppose we could stay a bit longer.

0:08:250:08:27

Here you go, Will! Drink up! There's enough beer in this lodging house to sink the Spanish!

0:08:410:08:47

Dolly Bailey, you've saved my life!

0:08:470:08:50

I'll do more than that, later tonight!

0:08:500:08:52

And you girl, hurry up with the tasks, the talk of gentlemen is best not overheard!

0:08:530:08:57

-Yes, ma'am. Sorry.

-But you must be mad, Will!

0:08:570:08:59

Love's Labours Won? We're not ready! It's supposed to be next week! What made you say that?

0:08:590:09:04

-It's not finished!

-Just the final scene to go, you'll get it by morning.

0:09:040:09:08

Hello! Excuse me, not interrupting, am I? Mr Shakespeare, isn't it?

0:09:080:09:12

Oh no. No, no, no, who let you in?

0:09:120:09:15

No autographs. You can't be sketched with me. Don't ask where I get my ideas. Thanks for the interest.

0:09:150:09:21

Now be a good boy and shove...

0:09:210:09:23

Hey nonny, nonny...

0:09:240:09:27

Sit right down here next to me. You two, get sewing on them costumes, off you go.

0:09:270:09:31

Come on, lads, I think our William's found his new muse.

0:09:310:09:35

Sweet lady.

0:09:350:09:36

Such unusual clothes, so...

0:09:380:09:42

-fitted.

-Um...Verily, forsooth. Egads.

0:09:420:09:46

No, no, don't do that.

0:09:460:09:49

Don't.

0:09:490:09:50

I'm Sir Doctor of Tardis and this is my companion, Miss Martha Jones.

0:09:500:09:55

-Interesting. That bit of paper, it's blank.

-Oh, that's...

0:09:550:09:59

very clever.

0:09:590:10:00

That proves it. Absolute genius.

0:10:000:10:03

No, it says right there, Sir Doctor, Martha Jones, it says so.

0:10:030:10:06

-And I say, it's blank.

-Psychic paper. Um...long story, oh I hate starting from scratch.

-"Psychic"?

0:10:060:10:13

Never heard that before, and words are my trade. who are you?

0:10:130:10:16

-More to the point, who's your delicious blackamoor lady?

-What did you say?

0:10:160:10:20

Whoops. Isn't that a word we use nowadays?

0:10:200:10:23

An Ethiop girl, a swarth, a Queen of Afric?

0:10:230:10:26

Can't believe I'm hearing this.

0:10:260:10:27

It's political correctness gone mad. Em, Martha's from a far-off land. Freedonia.

0:10:270:10:32

Excuse me! Hold hard a moment!

0:10:320:10:34

This is abominable behaviour, a new play, with no warning!

0:10:340:10:39

I demand to see a script, Mr Shakespeare.

0:10:390:10:41

As Master of the Revels, every new script must be registered at my office and examined by me,

0:10:410:10:48

-before it can be performed!

-Tomorrow first thing, I'll send it round.

0:10:480:10:52

I don't work to your schedule, you work to mine! The script, now!

0:10:520:10:55

-I can't!

-Then tomorrow's performance is cancelled.

0:10:550:10:59

-It's all go around here!

-I am returning to my Office for a banning order!

0:10:590:11:02

If it's the last thing I do - Love's Labours Won will never be played!

0:11:020:11:09

Sorry, sir, begging your pardon, sir. Mind you don't hurt that handsome head of yours, sir...

0:11:110:11:17

Hold hard, wanton woman!

0:11:170:11:18

I shall return later.

0:11:190:11:22

Oh, my mothers!

0:11:300:11:32

There's one seeks to stop the performance tomorrow!

0:11:320:11:35

-But it must be tomorrow.

-Love's Labours Won must be performed!

0:11:370:11:41

Fear not!

0:11:410:11:43

Chant with me.

0:11:430:11:45

ALL: Water damps the fiercest flame, drowns down girls and boys the same!

0:11:450:11:52

Well then, mystery solved! That's Love's Labours Won over and done with.

0:12:020:12:07

Thought it might be something more, you know, more mysterious?

0:12:070:12:10

GROANING AND WOMAN'S SCREAMS

0:12:100:12:13

Help me! >

0:12:130:12:15

CONTINUED SCREAMING

0:12:150:12:20

-It's that Lynley bloke.

-What's wrong with him?

0:12:290:12:32

-Leave it to me, I'm a doctor.

-So am I, near enough.

0:12:320:12:37

WITCHES: Now to halt the vital part, stab the flesh...

0:12:380:12:42

And stop the heart!

0:12:420:12:44

Eternal sleep is thine.

0:12:460:12:49

Get the heart going, Mr Lynley, come on, can you hear me?

0:12:530:12:57

You're gonna be all right.

0:12:570:13:01

What the hell is that?!

0:13:010:13:03

I've never seen a death like it. His lungs are full of water, he drowned.

0:13:030:13:06

I dunno, like a...blow to the heart? An invisible blow.

0:13:090:13:13

Good mistress, this poor fellow has died from a sudden imbalance of the humours.

0:13:150:13:19

-A natural, if unfortunate demise. Call a constable, have him taken away.

-Yes, sir.

-I'll do it, ma'am.

0:13:190:13:24

And why are you telling them that?

0:13:270:13:29

They're still in the Dark Ages. If I tell them the truth they'll think it was witchcraft.

0:13:290:13:33

OK, what was it then?

0:13:330:13:35

Witchcraft.

0:13:350:13:38

The potion is prepared, now take it.

0:13:380:13:43

Magic words for the playwright's fevered mind.

0:13:430:13:47

Shakespeare will release us!

0:13:470:13:49

The mind of a genius will unlock the Tide of Blood!

0:13:490:13:53

Upon this night, the work is done,

0:13:540:13:57

a muse to pen Love's Labours Won!

0:13:570:14:00

I've got you a room, Sir Doctor, you and Miss Jones are just across the landing.

0:14:120:14:17

Poor Lynley. So many strange events.

0:14:170:14:20

Not least of all, this land of Freedonia, where a woman can be a doctor?

0:14:200:14:24

Where a woman can do what she likes.

0:14:240:14:26

And you, Sir Doctor. How can a man so young have eyes so old?

0:14:260:14:30

I do a lot of reading.

0:14:300:14:33

A trite reply, yeah, that's what I do.

0:14:330:14:37

And you, you look at him like you're surprised he exists.

0:14:370:14:42

He's as much of a puzzle to you as he is to me.

0:14:420:14:45

I think we should say goodnight.

0:14:450:14:47

I must to work, I have a play to complete.

0:14:500:14:55

But I'll get my answers tomorrow, Doctor,

0:14:550:14:58

and I'll discover more about you, and why this constant performance of yours.

0:14:580:15:03

-All the world's a stage.

-Hmm.

0:15:030:15:06

I might use that. Good night, Doctor.

0:15:060:15:09

Nighty night, Shakespeare.

0:15:090:15:12

It's not exactly five star, is it?

0:15:200:15:22

Oh, it'll do, I've seen worse.

0:15:220:15:25

I haven't even got a toothbrush.

0:15:250:15:26

Oh, contains Venusian spearmint.

0:15:280:15:31

-So, who's going where? I mean, there's only one bed.

-We'll manage!

0:15:310:15:35

Come on...

0:15:350:15:37

So, magic and stuff, that's a surprise. It's all a bit Harry Potter.

0:15:400:15:44

Wait till you read book seven. Oh, I cried.

0:15:440:15:49

But is it real? I mean, witches, Black magic and all that, it's real?

0:15:490:15:52

-Of course it isn't(!)

-How am I supposed to know?

0:15:520:15:55

I've only just started believing in time travel.

0:15:550:15:58

It looks like witchcraft. But it isn't, it can't be...

0:15:580:16:01

You gonna stand there all night?

0:16:010:16:03

Budge up a bit then.

0:16:090:16:10

Sorry. Not much room. Us two here.

0:16:110:16:15

Same bed. Tongues will wag.

0:16:150:16:17

There's psychic energy, but a human couldn't channel it,

0:16:170:16:20

not without a generator the size of Taunton, and we'd have spotted that. No.

0:16:200:16:24

There's something I'm missing, Martha.

0:16:270:16:29

Something really close...

0:16:310:16:33

staring me right in the face, and I can't see it.

0:16:340:16:37

Rose would know.

0:16:410:16:42

That friend of mine, Rose, right now, she'd say exactly the right thing.

0:16:440:16:49

Still, can't be helped, you're a novice. Never mind!

0:16:510:16:54

I'll take you back home tomorrow.

0:16:540:16:57

Great!

0:16:570:16:58

EERIE WHISPERING

0:17:370:17:43

Bind the mind and take the man,

0:17:490:17:53

speed the words

0:17:530:17:56

to writer's hand!

0:17:560:17:59

Will!

0:18:390:18:41

I've finished cleaning, just in time for your special treat... Oh aye, I'm not the first then!

0:18:410:18:47

I'll take that, to aid my flight and you shall speak no more, this night.

0:18:490:18:54

What...?

0:19:010:19:03

What was that?

0:19:030:19:06

-DISTANT CACKLING

-Her heart gave out.

0:19:080:19:10

-She died of fright.

-Doctor...

0:19:110:19:14

What did you see?

0:19:140:19:16

A witch.

0:19:160:19:18

COCKEREL CROWS

0:19:190:19:21

Oh, sweet Dolly Bailey.

0:19:240:19:26

She sat out three bouts of the plague in this place. We all ran like rats.

0:19:260:19:31

But what could have scared her so? She had such enormous spirit.

0:19:310:19:34

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

0:19:340:19:37

-I might use that.

-You can't, it's someone else's.

0:19:370:19:40

But the thing is, Lynley drowned on dry land, Dolly died of fright, and they were both connected to you.

0:19:400:19:46

-You're accusing me?

-No, but I saw a witch -

0:19:460:19:49

big as you like,

0:19:490:19:51

-flying, cackling away - and you've written about witches.

-I have? When was that?

0:19:510:19:55

Not...quite yet.

0:19:550:19:57

-Peter Streete spoke of witches.

-Who's Peter Streete?

-Our builder.

0:19:570:20:00

-He sketched the plans to the Globe.

-The architect.

0:20:000:20:03

Hold on, the architect! The Globe! Come on!

0:20:030:20:06

The columns there, right, and 14 sides...

0:20:070:20:12

I've always wondered but I've never asked, Will, why 14 sides?

0:20:120:20:15

It was the shape Peter Streete thought best, that's all.

0:20:150:20:18

-He said it carried the sound well.

-But 14?Why does that ring a bell?

0:20:180:20:21

-14?

-There's 14 lines in a sonnet.

-So there is.

0:20:210:20:25

Good point! Words, and shapes, following the same design.

0:20:250:20:28

14 lines, 14 sides, 14 facets.

0:20:280:20:31

Oh, my head! Tetradecagon! Think! Words, letters, numbers, lines...

0:20:310:20:35

-But this is just a theatre.

-Yes, but a theatre's magic, isn't it?

0:20:350:20:38

You should know! Stand on this stage.

0:20:380:20:41

Say the right words, with the right emphasis, at the right time. Oh, you can make men weep.

0:20:410:20:46

Or cry with joy. Change them...

0:20:460:20:51

Yu can change people's minds, just with words in this place!

0:20:510:20:56

-And if you exaggerate that...

-It's like your police box. Small wooden box, but with all that power inside.

0:20:570:21:03

Oh! Oh, Martha Jones, I like you! Tell you what though,

0:21:030:21:07

-Peter would know, can I talk to him?

-You won't get an answer.

0:21:070:21:10

-A month after finishing this place, lost his mind.

-Why, what happened?

0:21:100:21:14

He started raving about witches, hearing voices, babbling.

0:21:140:21:17

-His mind was addled.

-Where is he now?

-Bedlam.

-What's Bedlam?

-Bethlem Hospital, the madhouse.

0:21:170:21:21

-We've gotta go there, right now, come on!

-I'm coming with you! I want to witness this at first hand. Ralph,

0:21:210:21:27

the last scene, as promised, copy it, hand it round, learn it, speak it.

0:21:270:21:31

Back before curtain-up, and remember, kid, project, eyes and teeth, you never know the Queen might turn up!

0:21:310:21:37

As if! She never does.

0:21:370:21:40

So tell me of Freedonia - where women can be doctors, writers, actors?

0:21:400:21:45

-This country's ruled by a woman.

-She's Royal, that's God's business.

0:21:450:21:48

Though you are a Royal beauty.

0:21:480:21:50

Whoa, Nelly. I know for a fact you've got a wife in the country.

0:21:500:21:54

-But Martha, this is town.

-Come on!

0:21:540:21:56

-We can all have a good flirt later!

-Is that a promise, Doctor?

0:21:560:21:59

Oh, 57 academics just punched the air, now move!

0:22:000:22:04

Love's Labours Won. I don't think much of sequels, they're never as good as the original.

0:22:070:22:12

Have you seen this bit? He must've been dozing off!

0:22:120:22:14

-I don't even know what it means.

-That goes for most of his stuff.

0:22:140:22:17

Ah, but at least it's my speech!

0:22:170:22:20

I get centre stage!

0:22:200:22:22

"The light of Shadmoch's hollow moon, doth shine on to a point in space,

0:22:240:22:29

"betwixt Dravidian shores..."

0:22:290:22:31

HOWLING WIND

0:22:310:22:34

What was that?

0:22:340:22:36

"..Dravidian shores and linear five, nine three o one six."

0:22:360:22:42

A spirit stirs the ether!

0:22:420:22:44

Too soon! Too soon!

0:22:460:22:48

Naught to fear, my mothers,

0:22:480:22:52

it is merely a rehearsal of what's to come.

0:22:520:22:55

"And strikes the fulsome grove of Rexel Four..."

0:22:560:23:00

By all the saints!

0:23:030:23:05

It's a spirit!

0:23:050:23:07

-CREATURE SHRIEKS

-It's a vile shade.

0:23:070:23:10

I think we should never speak of this again,

0:23:170:23:20

else we'll end up in Bedlam ourselves.

0:23:200:23:23

MOANS, WAILS AND CLATTER OF SHACKLES

0:23:240:23:29

Does my Lord Doctor wish some entertainment while he waits?

0:23:290:23:33

I can whip these mad men, they'll put on a good show for you.

0:23:340:23:37

-Bandog and Bedlam!

-No. I don't.

0:23:370:23:40

Wait here, my lords while I...

0:23:400:23:43

make him decent for the lady.

0:23:430:23:45

So, you call this a hospital?! Where patients are whipped to entertain the gentry.

0:23:450:23:49

-And you put your friend in here?

-Oh, it's all so different in Freedonia.

0:23:490:23:53

But you're clever! D'you honestly think this place does any good?

0:23:530:23:56

I've been mad, I've lost my mind. The fear of this place set me right again, it serves its purpose.

0:23:560:24:01

-Mad in what way?

-You lost your son.

0:24:010:24:03

My only boy.

0:24:030:24:05

The Black Death took him. I wasn't even there.

0:24:050:24:08

I didn't know, I'm sorry.

0:24:080:24:09

It made me question everything. The futility of this fleeting existence. To be or not to be...

0:24:090:24:15

Ooh...

0:24:150:24:16

that's quite good.

0:24:160:24:18

You should write that down.

0:24:180:24:20

Maybe not, bit pretentious.

0:24:200:24:21

This way, my lord.

0:24:210:24:23

WAILING

0:24:250:24:30

-They can be dangerous. Don't know their own strength.

-It helps if you don't whip them. Now, get out.

0:24:390:24:44

Peter...

0:24:490:24:51

Peter Streete?

0:24:510:24:53

He's the same as he was.

0:24:530:24:56

You'll get nothing out of him.

0:24:560:24:58

Peter?

0:24:590:25:01

What is this? I must see.

0:25:060:25:10

That stranger!

0:25:160:25:17

He was at the inn with Shakespeare.

0:25:170:25:21

I thought then, he smelt of something new.

0:25:210:25:23

Now he visits the madhouse - the architect!

0:25:230:25:27

Peter, I'm the Doctor.

0:25:350:25:36

Go into the past.

0:25:380:25:41

One year ago.

0:25:410:25:43

Let your mind go back. Back, to when everything was fine and shining.

0:25:430:25:48

Everything that happened in this year since, happened to somebody else.

0:25:480:25:53

It was just a story,

0:25:530:25:57

a winter's tale.

0:25:570:25:59

Let go...

0:25:590:26:01

That's it.

0:26:010:26:03

That's it.

0:26:030:26:05

Just let go...

0:26:050:26:06

Tell me the story, Peter.

0:26:110:26:13

Tell me about the witches.

0:26:130:26:16

Who is this Doctor?

0:26:160:26:17

Why does he come now, at our time of glory?

0:26:170:26:21

Doomfinger! Transport yourself!

0:26:210:26:24

Doom the Doctor,

0:26:240:26:26

doom his hide!

0:26:260:26:28

Hide...

0:26:280:26:30

The witches...spoke to Peter.

0:26:310:26:34

In the night, they whispered.

0:26:340:26:37

Whispered...

0:26:370:26:38

Got Peter to build the Globe to their design. THEIR design.

0:26:430:26:47

The 14 walls.

0:26:470:26:49

Always 14.

0:26:490:26:53

When the work was done...

0:26:530:26:55

..they snapped poor Peter's wits...

0:26:570:27:01

But where did Peter see the witches? Where in the city?

0:27:010:27:04

Peter, tell me.

0:27:040:27:07

You've got to tell me, where were they?

0:27:070:27:09

Allhallows Street...

0:27:120:27:14

-Too many words...

-What the hell? Just one touch of the heart.

0:27:140:27:19

NO!

0:27:200:27:22

WITCH WAILS

0:27:240:27:26

A witch, I'm seeing a witch!

0:27:260:27:28

Who would be next, mmm?

0:27:280:27:30

Just one touch...

0:27:300:27:34

WITCHES CACKLE

0:27:340:27:36

I'll stop your frantic hearts.

0:27:360:27:40

Poor fragile mortals.

0:27:400:27:43

-Let us out!

-That's not gonna work, the whole building's shouting that!

0:27:430:27:46

Who would die first? Mmm?

0:27:460:27:49

-Well, if you're looking for volunteers.

-No don't!

-Doctor, can you stop her?

0:27:490:27:54

-No mortal has power over me.

-Oh, but there's a power in words.

0:27:540:27:57

-If I can find the right one, if I could just know you...

-None on Earth has knowledge of us.

0:27:570:28:03

Then it's a good thing I'm here. Now, think. Humanoid, female, uses shapes and words to channel energy.

0:28:030:28:08

Ah! 14!

0:28:080:28:09

That's it! 14! The 14 stars of the Rexel Planetary Configuration!

0:28:090:28:14

Creature, I name you...Carrionite!

0:28:140:28:18

CREATURE SCREAMS

0:28:180:28:22

What did you do?

0:28:230:28:26

I named her. The power of a name. That's old magic.

0:28:260:28:30

But there's no such thing as magic!

0:28:300:28:32

It's a different sort of science. You chose mathematics.

0:28:320:28:35

The right numbers, the right equation, can split the atom. Carrionites use words.

0:28:350:28:39

Use them for what?

0:28:390:28:40

The end of the world.

0:28:420:28:44

CARRIONITE GASPS

0:28:450:28:49

He knows us!

0:28:490:28:52

He spoke our name!

0:28:520:28:54

Then he will know death!

0:28:540:28:57

He will perish at my hand!

0:28:570:28:59

-BELL TOLLS

-My mothers, the time approaches, you must away to the Globe, go!

0:28:590:29:05

I will join you, as soon as this Doctor screams his last!

0:29:050:29:10

The Carrionites disappeared way back at the dawn of the universe.

0:29:100:29:14

-Nobody was sure if they were real or legend.

-I'm going for real.

-But what do they want?

0:29:140:29:18

A new empire on Earth.

0:29:180:29:21

-A world of bones and blood and witchcraft.

-But how?

0:29:210:29:25

I'm looking at the man with the words.

0:29:250:29:29

Me? But I've done nothing.

0:29:290:29:31

Hold on, what were you doing last night, when that Carrionite was in the room?

0:29:310:29:35

Finishing the play.

0:29:350:29:36

What happens on the last page?

0:29:370:29:39

The boys get the girls, they have a bit of a dance, it's all as funny and thought-provoking as usual.

0:29:390:29:44

Except those last few line.

0:29:450:29:47

Funny thing is, I don't actually remember writing them.

0:29:470:29:51

That's it!

0:29:510:29:54

They used you!

0:29:540:29:56

They gave you the final words, like a spell, like a code! Love's Labour's Won, it's a weapon!

0:29:560:30:01

The right words, spoken in the right place, with the shape of the Globe as an energy-converter!

0:30:010:30:06

The play's the thing! And yes, you can have that!

0:30:060:30:08

FANFARE PLAYS

0:30:100:30:14

We left the lovers of Navarre by cruel chance sep'rated,

0:30:170:30:21

none to claim his heart, their labours lost, now will they find Love's Labours Won?

0:30:210:30:27

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:30:270:30:29

Allhallows Street, there it is. Martha, we'll track them down, Will, get to the Globe.

0:30:340:30:38

Whatever you do, stop that play!

0:30:380:30:40

I'll do it! All these years I've been the cleverest man around. Next to you, I know nothing!

0:30:400:30:45

-Oh, don't complain(!)

-I'm not, it's marvellous! Good luck, Doctor!

0:30:450:30:48

-Good luck, Shakespeare! Once more unto the breach!

-I like that...

0:30:480:30:52

Wait a minute, that's one of mine!

0:30:520:30:54

Oh, just shift!

0:30:540:30:57

The eye should have contentment where it rests.

0:30:570:30:59

This spun-out year I watch on...

0:30:590:31:02

Patience, my sisters, patience...

0:31:020:31:06

-And mewling poor, drooped men in stench'd...

-Stop the play!

0:31:060:31:09

I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen, but stop! This performance must end, immediately.

0:31:090:31:15

Oh, everyone's a critic.

0:31:150:31:16

-The wordsmith!

-Fear not!

0:31:160:31:19

I have the doll!

0:31:190:31:20

I'm sorry, you'll get a refund, but this play must not be performed.

0:31:200:31:26

-Is he drunk or what?

-Get him out of the way!

0:31:290:31:32

You must forgive, our irksome Will,

0:31:360:31:39

he's been on the beer and feeling ill.

0:31:390:31:42

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:31:420:31:46

There is naught can stop us now!

0:31:480:31:51

Allhallows Street.

0:31:530:31:55

But which house?

0:31:550:31:57

Thing is though, am I missing something here?

0:31:570:32:00

The world didn't end in 1599, it just didn't. Look at me, I'm living proof.

0:32:000:32:04

Oh, how to explain the mechanics of the Infinite Temporal Flux? I know!

0:32:040:32:07

-Back to the Future! It's like Back to the Future!

-The film?

0:32:070:32:11

No, the novelisation, yes the film! Marty McFly goes back and changes history...

0:32:110:32:15

And he starts fading away! Oh, my God, am I gonna fade?

0:32:150:32:19

You and the entire future of the human race - it ends, right now,

0:32:190:32:23

in 1599, if we don't stop it.

0:32:230:32:25

But which house?

0:32:250:32:27

Make that "witch" house.

0:32:320:32:36

I take it we're expected?

0:32:470:32:49

Oh, I think death has been waiting for you a very long time.

0:32:490:32:53

Right then! It's my turn.

0:32:530:32:55

I know how to do this.

0:32:550:32:57

I name thee, Carrionite!

0:32:570:33:00

Argh! Huh...

0:33:000:33:02

What was wrong? The finger?

0:33:020:33:04

The power of a name works only once.

0:33:040:33:06

Observe.

0:33:060:33:07

I gaze upon this bag of bones, and now I name thee Martha Jones!

0:33:070:33:12

What have you done?

0:33:120:33:13

Only sleeping, alas. It's curious,

0:33:150:33:18

the name has less impact, she's somehow out of her time.

0:33:180:33:22

And as for you, Sir Doctor...

0:33:220:33:25

Fascinating.

0:33:260:33:27

There is no name.

0:33:290:33:30

Why would a man hide his title in such despair?

0:33:300:33:34

Oh! But look!

0:33:360:33:38

-There's still one word with a power that aches...

-The naming won't work on me.

0:33:380:33:42

But your heart grows cold, the north wind blows

0:33:420:33:46

and carries down, the distant...

0:33:460:33:48

Rose.

0:33:480:33:50

Oh, big mistake

0:33:500:33:53

cos that name keeps me fighting.

0:33:530:33:55

The Carrionites vanished, where did you go?

0:33:550:33:58

The Eternals found the right word to banish us into Deep Darkness.

0:33:580:34:02

-Then how did you escape?

-New words, new and glittering.

0:34:020:34:06

From a mind like no other.

0:34:060:34:08

Shakespeare?

0:34:080:34:11

His son perished!

0:34:110:34:13

The grief of a genius -

0:34:130:34:16

grief without measure,

0:34:160:34:18

madness enough to allow us entrance.

0:34:180:34:21

-How many of you?

-Just the three. But the play tonight shall restore the rest.

0:34:210:34:26

Then the human race will be purged, as pestilence.

0:34:260:34:30

And from this world, we will lead the universe back into the old ways of blood and magic.

0:34:300:34:36

Mmm, busy schedule. But first...

0:34:360:34:40

you've got to get past me.

0:34:400:34:42

Oh, that should be a pleasure...

0:34:420:34:44

considering my enemy has such a handsome shape.

0:34:450:34:49

Now that's one form of magic that's definitely not going to work on me.

0:34:490:34:54

-Oh, we'll see.

-SNIP!

0:34:540:34:56

What was that for, what did you do?

0:34:560:34:58

A souvenir.

0:34:580:35:00

Well, give it back!

0:35:000:35:01

Well, that's just cheating.

0:35:050:35:07

Behold, Doctor.

0:35:070:35:09

Men, to Carrionites, are nothing

0:35:090:35:11

but puppets.

0:35:110:35:13

Now, you might call that magic, I'd call that a DNA Replication Module.

0:35:140:35:19

What use is your science now?

0:35:190:35:21

Oh, my God, Doctor! Don't worry, I've got you.

0:35:270:35:31

Hold on, mister.

0:35:340:35:36

Two hearts?!

0:35:360:35:38

You're making a habit of this.

0:35:380:35:40

Ow!

0:35:400:35:42

I've only got one heart working, how do you people cope?

0:35:420:35:47

I gotta get the other one started, hit me! Hit me on the chest. Argh!

0:35:470:35:51

Other side! Argh! On the back, on the back.

0:35:510:35:55

Left a bit. Argh!

0:35:560:35:59

Lovely. There we go! Ba-da-boom! Well what are you standing there for? Come on, the Globe!

0:35:590:36:05

The Doctor?

0:36:070:36:10

-Dead.

-The ladies have prepared a show.

0:36:100:36:13

Maria means to present Isis descending from the dewy orb of Heav'n.

0:36:130:36:17

Ah, here comes Costard.

0:36:170:36:19

CHEERS

0:36:190:36:21

Masters!

0:36:230:36:26

AUDIENCE WHISTLES

0:36:260:36:27

-We're going the wrong way!

-No, we're not!

0:36:270:36:31

We're going the wrong way!

0:36:310:36:33

Behold the swinish sight of woman's love!

0:36:360:36:38

Pish, it's out of season to be heavy disposed.

0:36:380:36:42

It is now, my mothers!

0:36:420:36:44

The final words, to activate the tetradecagon!

0:36:440:36:46

Betwixt Dravidian shores and linear five, nine, three, o, one, six, seven, point, o, two

0:36:460:36:53

and strikes the fulsome grove of Rexel Four. Co-radiating crystal activate!

0:36:530:36:59

The portal opens! It begins!

0:36:590:37:03

THEY CACKLE

0:37:030:37:05

PEOPLE SCREAM

0:37:050:37:08

I told thee so! I told thee!

0:37:080:37:10

Stage door!

0:37:130:37:14

Stop the play! I think that was it. Yes, I said, "Stop the play!"

0:37:330:37:37

-I hit my head.

-Yeah, don't rub it, you'll go bald.

0:37:370:37:39

I think that's my cue.

0:37:390:37:42

CARRIONITES: Now begins the Millennium of Blood!

0:37:430:37:48

The Doctor, he lives!

0:37:510:37:53

Then watch this world become a blasted heath!

0:37:530:37:57

They come! They come!

0:37:570:37:59

-Come on, Will! History needs you!

-But what can I do?

-Reverse it!

-How am I supposed to do that?

0:38:320:38:37

The shape of the Globe gives words power, you're the wordsmith -

0:38:370:38:40

the one, true genius, the only man clever enough to do it.

0:38:400:38:43

-What words? I have none.

-You're William Shakespeare!

0:38:430:38:46

-But these Carrionite phrases, they need such precision.

-Trust yourself.

0:38:460:38:51

With you the words just come like magic!

0:38:510:38:54

The right sound, the right shape, the right rhythm, words that last forever.

0:38:540:38:58

That's what you do, Will, you choose perfect words, do it! Improvise!

0:38:580:39:03

Close up this din of hateful dire decay!

0:39:090:39:13

Decomposition of your witches' plot.

0:39:130:39:15

You thieve my brains, consider me your toy

0:39:150:39:18

my doting Doctor tells me I am not!

0:39:180:39:21

No! Words of power!

0:39:210:39:24

Foul Carrionite spectres cease your show between the points...

0:39:240:39:30

Seven, six, one, three, nine, o...

0:39:300:39:32

Sev'n, six, one, three, nine, o..

0:39:320:39:34

And banished like a tinker's cuss, I say to thee...

0:39:340:39:39

Expelliamus!

0:39:410:39:44

-Expelliamus!

-Expelliamus!

-Good old JK!

0:39:440:39:48

CARRIONITES SHRIEK

0:39:480:39:52

The Deep Darkness... They are consumed! No...!

0:39:520:39:57

Love's Labours Won!

0:40:110:40:13

There it goes!

0:40:130:40:14

CARRIONITES SCREAM

0:40:140:40:18

AUDIENCE GASPS

0:40:230:40:26

RIPPLE OF APPLAUSE

0:40:290:40:32

CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

0:40:360:40:41

They think it was all special effects.

0:40:460:40:48

Your effect is special indeed.

0:40:480:40:51

That's not your best line.

0:40:510:40:53

WHISTLES AND WHOOPS

0:40:530:40:57

And I say, a heart for a hart, a dear for a deer.

0:41:230:41:28

-I don't get it.

-Then give me a joke from Freedonia.

0:41:280:41:31

OK. Shakespeare walks into a pub

0:41:310:41:34

and the landlord says, "Oi, mate, you're barred."

0:41:340:41:39

Oh, that's brilliant! Doesn't make sense, mind you, but never mind that, come here.

0:41:390:41:43

I've only just met you.

0:41:430:41:45

The Doctor might never kiss you. Why not entertain a man who will?

0:41:450:41:48

I don't know how to tell you this, oh, great genius, but your breath doesn't half stink.

0:41:500:41:55

Good props store, back there.

0:41:550:41:58

Not sure about this, though,

0:41:580:42:00

reminds me of a Sycorax.

0:42:000:42:02

Sycorax? Nice word. I'll have that off you as well.

0:42:020:42:05

-I should be on 10%. How's your head?

-Still aching.

-'Ere...

0:42:050:42:09

I got you this...

0:42:090:42:11

Neck brace.

0:42:110:42:12

Wear that for a few days, till it's better. Although,

0:42:120:42:16

-you might want to keep it, suits you.

-What about the play?

0:42:160:42:19

Gone. I looked all over, every single copy of Love's Labours Won, went up in the sky.

0:42:190:42:23

-My lost masterpiece.

-You could write it up again.

0:42:230:42:27

Yeah, better not, Will.

0:42:270:42:29

There's still power in those words, maybe it'd best stay forgotten.

0:42:290:42:32

Oh, but I've got new ideas!

0:42:320:42:34

Perhaps it's time I wrote about fathers and sons.

0:42:340:42:37

In memory of my boy. My precious Hamnet.

0:42:370:42:39

-Hamnet?

-That's him.

-Ham...net?

-What's wrong with that?

-Anyway,

0:42:390:42:43

time we were off. I've got a nice attic in the Tardis, where this lot can scream for all eternity.

0:42:430:42:49

-I've gotta take Martha back to Freedonia.

-You mean travel on through time and space?

0:42:490:42:54

-You what?

-You're from another world, like the Carrionites. Martha's from the future.

0:42:540:42:58

It's not that hard to work out.

0:42:580:43:00

-That's incredible. You are incredible!

-We're alike in many ways, Doctor.

0:43:000:43:05

Martha, let me say goodbye to you with a new verse.

0:43:050:43:09

A sonnet for my Dark Lady.

0:43:090:43:12

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?

0:43:140:43:16

Thou art more lovely and more temperate...

0:43:160:43:20

Will! You'll never believe it! She's here! She's turned up!

0:43:200:43:24

We're the talk of the town. She heard about last night, she wants us to perform it again!

0:43:240:43:29

-Who?

-Her Majesty, she's here.

0:43:290:43:31

FANFARE PLAYS

0:43:310:43:33

Queen Elizabeth the First!

0:43:350:43:36

Doctor!

0:43:360:43:38

-What?

-My sworn enemy!

0:43:380:43:41

-What?

-Off with his head!

-What?!

0:43:410:43:44

-Never mind what, run! See you, Will! And thanks!

-Stop that pernicious Doctor!

0:43:440:43:49

Stop, in the name of the Queen!

0:43:540:43:56

-What have you done to upset her?

-I don't know. I haven't met her yet!

0:43:560:43:59

That's time travel for you! Still, can't wait to find out...

0:43:590:44:03

that's something to look forward to!

0:44:030:44:05

Oh...

0:44:050:44:07

We're in the middle of New New York...

0:44:120:44:14

He has arrived.

0:44:140:44:16

You've got to let her go!

0:44:200:44:21

-Doctor!

-No!

0:44:210:44:24

-I need to talk to the police.

-HORNS BEEP

0:44:240:44:27

-You want happy?

-Bucket of anger.

-How much do you want forgetting?

0:44:270:44:31

Well dressed for a hitch-hiker.

0:44:310:44:32

They say people go missing on the motorway.

0:44:320:44:35

Some cars just vanish, never to be seen again.

0:44:350:44:38

Is there something living down there?

0:44:380:44:40

What the hell are they?

0:44:400:44:42
