1. Alastair? Alastair?
Copy !req
2. - Hmm?
- What about this one?
Copy !req
3. Oh, fine, if you like it, Doris.
Copy !req
4. Oh, show some enthusiasm.
Copy !req
5. It will look great by one of our
azalea beds, what do you think?
Copy !req
6. Yes, I'll plant it when we get home.
Copy !req
7. - Oh, thank you.
- The exercise will do me good.
Copy !req
8. Now, where's
that salesman got to?
Copy !req
9. Typical lack of efficiency.
Copy !req
10. Back in your soldier days, you just
had to give an order and stand back.
Copy !req
11. Of course.
Copy !req
12. Sergeant Benton, tree
planting party, at the double!
Copy !req
13. Sir!
Copy !req
14. - You don't regret it, do you?
- What, giving up teaching?
Copy !req
15. No, leaving United Nations
Intelligence Taskforce.
Copy !req
16. No, my blood and thunder
days are long passed.
Copy !req
17. Come in, Salamander 6-0. Over.
Copy !req
18. Come in, Salamander 6-0. Over.
Copy !req
19. Salamander 6-0, reading you. Over.
Copy !req
20. Stand by, 6-0.
Copy !req
21. Brigadier, I've made contact
with Lieutenant Richards.
Copy !req
22. 6-0, the Brigadier is coming now.
Copy !req
23. Salamander 6-0, please
clarify your situation. Over.
Copy !req
24. Salamander 6-0, you're
breaking up. Over.
Copy !req
25. Salamander, do you copy?
Copy !req
26. Get that vehicle on the road, ASAP!
Copy !req
27. - They've gone.
- Must be the storm.
Copy !req
28. I don't like this weather.
Copy !req
29. At last he is revealed to us.
Copy !req
30. Professor, why is it dark in here?
Copy !req
31. - Quiet, Ace, I'm working.
- Oh, is that why it's dark?
Copy !req
32. Yes.
Copy !req
33. What's that noise?
Copy !req
34. - A cry in the dark.
- A distress signal?
Copy !req
35. A cry for help, perhaps a summoning.
Copy !req
36. - Where's it coming from?
- Earth.
Copy !req
37. Rippling out through the cosmos
forward in time,
Copy !req
38. - backwards in time and sideways...
- Sideways in time?
Copy !req
39. Yes, sideways in time.
Copy !req
40. Across the boundaries that
divide one universe from another.
Copy !req
41. Weird.
Copy !req
42. This cry, who's it for?
Copy !req
43. For? I don't know.
Copy !req
44. Well, perhaps if we went there...
Where's it coming from again?
Copy !req
45. Earth! A few years in your future.
Copy !req
46. It's giving me the creeps.
Copy !req
47. What does it mean?
Copy !req
48. We'll know in a moment.
Once I've deciphered it.
Copy !req
49. Merlin...
Copy !req
50. Wherever it is it's coming from,
I don't think we want to go there.
Copy !req
51. Too late. We've already arrived.
Copy !req
52. Salamander 6-0, this is Seabird
1, are you receiving me? Over.
Copy !req
53. Brigadier.
Copy !req
54. - What now?
- Hitchhikers.
Copy !req
55. Oh, shame.
Copy !req
56. Don't stop then, I don't care!
Copy !req
57. I don't think this will stop either.
Copy !req
58. Don't be such a pessimist, Professor.
Copy !req
59. Where are you heading?
Copy !req
60. - Northeast.
- Right, climb aboard.
Copy !req
61. Come to see the dig, have you?
Copy !req
62. - Ah! Archaeological dig?
- Yes, actually...
Copy !req
63. Oh, sorry, haven't introduced
myself. I'm Peter Warmsly.
Copy !req
64. I'm site manager for the
Carbury Trust Conservation Area.
Copy !req
65. I'm Ace, and this is the Doctor.
Copy !req
66. The dig, as a matter
of fact, is a hobby.
Copy !req
67. - A battlefield.
- What battlefield?
Copy !req
68. I hate that sound, don't you?
Copy !req
69. Sometimes at night I lie there
listening, thinking it might be...
Copy !req
70. The beginning of something terrible.
Copy !req
71. What was that?
Copy !req
72. The military use the
area as a firing range.
Copy !req
73. Never understood why.
Copy !req
74. Blowing the occasional chunk out
of the earth keeps them amused.
Copy !req
75. It didn't sound like a shell.
Copy !req
76. Oh, very good. Why not drive
the missile into the lake?
Copy !req
77. Professor?
Copy !req
78. Yes, the transmission is
definitely coming from over there.
Copy !req
79. Professor.
Copy !req
80. It's a missile convoy.
Copy !req
81. A nuclear missile convoy.
Copy !req
82. How do you know?
Copy !req
83. It has a graveyard stench.
Copy !req
84. Warmsly is the name and I
demand to see somebody in charge
Copy !req
85. What was that?
Copy !req
86. - A flying jet?
- Not this far south.
Copy !req
87. Raise Division, get them
to check flight paths.
Copy !req
88. Sorry, sir, but we
cannot get a signal out.
Copy !req
89. Well, see what you can do, Zbrigniev.
All this noise is making me nervous.
Copy !req
90. There's a Mr Warmsly who wants
to speak to an officer, sir.
Copy !req
91. Brigadier!
Copy !req
92. There's a Mr Warmsly who wants
to speak to somebody in charge.
Copy !req
93. You talk to him, Zbrigniev,
I've got enough troubles.
Copy !req
94. Didn't sound like a shell.
Copy !req
95. - More like a couple of rockets.
- Yes.
Copy !req
96. What we need is something to help us.
Copy !req
97. Wait a minute.
Copy !req
98. Ah. Yes, of course.
Copy !req
99. I never thought I'd need these again.
Copy !req
100. This should remove a few obstacles.
Copy !req
101. - Who's Elizabeth Shaw?
- Hmm?
Copy !req
102. - I don't even look like her.
- Oh, never mind.
Copy !req
103. Just think like a physicist.
Copy !req
104. - Now, what seems to be the problem?
- Excuse me?
Copy !req
105. Well, you've had an explosion
in your electronics, haven't you?
Copy !req
106. - An electro-magnetic pulse
effect. -Make yourself at home.
Copy !req
107. - Caused by?
- A nuclear explosion usually.
Copy !req
108. I think I would have
noticed a nuclear explosion.
Copy !req
109. Yes, well, they are conspicuous.
Copy !req
110. Well, if there was no nuke, where
did the energy pulse come from?
Copy !req
111. Exactly.
Copy !req
112. All systems failures were the result
of a minor technical difficulty.
Copy !req
113. I don't know where you got these
from, but I intend to find out.
Copy !req
114. - Show these two out.
- I'd just like to say three things.
Copy !req
115. - What?
- Yeti, Autons, Daleks.
Copy !req
116. Cybermen and Silurians!
Copy !req
117. - That was five things.
- She didn't even notice.
Copy !req
118. Among all the varied
wonders of the universe,
Copy !req
119. there's nothing so firmly
clamped shut as the military mind.
Copy !req
120. Well done, Zbrigniev.
Copy !req
121. Two civilians waltz up with a
pair of antiquated pass cards
Copy !req
122. and you let them in, why?
Copy !req
123. Sir.
Copy !req
124. - You know something, what is it?
- Off the record, sir.
Copy !req
125. Off the record.
Copy !req
126. When I served under Lethbridge-Stewart,
Copy !req
127. we had a scientific
adviser called the Doctor.
Copy !req
128. The man outside?
Copy !req
129. - No, sir. But...
- But?
Copy !req
130. He changed his
appearance, several times.
Copy !req
131. - A disguise.
- No, sir.
Copy !req
132. The word was he changed his
whole physical appearance.
Copy !req
133. His whole appearance.
Copy !req
134. And his personality.
Copy !req
135. How could he be the same man if his
appearance and personality have changed?
Copy !req
136. I don't know, sir.
Copy !req
137. What do you know, Zbrigniev?
Copy !req
138. Just that whenever
this Doctor turns up...
Copy !req
139. - Yes?
- ... all hell breaks loose.
Copy !req
140. Alastair, telephone for you.
Copy !req
141. Who is it?
Copy !req
142. Hello, can you tell me who's speaking?
Copy !req
143. Okay, fine, thank you. Geneva.
Copy !req
144. Oh. Probably just
another peace conference.
Copy !req
145. Tell them I've retired.
Copy !req
146. Tell them I've decided to fade away.
Copy !req
147. No, I'm terribly sorry,
I'm afraid he's unavailable.
Copy !req
148. Okay, yes, I will.
Copy !req
149. Thank you, bye-bye.
Copy !req
150. Alastair, that was
the Secretary-General.
Copy !req
151. Doris, I don't care if it was
the King. I'm still retired.
Copy !req
152. He said something about
the Doctor being back.
Copy !req
153. Alastair, who is the Doctor?
Copy !req
154. We could have walked
to the hotel, you know.
Copy !req
155. No problem. I thought you might
like to see Vortigern's Lake.
Copy !req
156. Vortigern? That's an interesting name.
Copy !req
157. Yeah, fascinating.
Copy !req
158. - What's your name, by the way?
- Brigadier Winifred Bambera.
Copy !req
159. Winifred?
Copy !req
160. There are many secrets in names.
Vortigern is old British for High King.
Copy !req
161. Your convoy's stranded by
the lake of the High King.
Copy !req
162. - Can I help you?
- Yes, I'd like to book a room.
Copy !req
163. One for myself and one
for my young friend here.
Copy !req
164. Yes, sir. Long journey?
Copy !req
165. Um, quite a distance, as it happens.
Copy !req
166. - Then you'll be having a drink, sir?
- Yes, please.
Copy !req
167. Why not? What do you have?
Copy !req
168. What we have, sir, is possibly
the finest beer in the area,
Copy !req
169. even if I do say so myself,
perhaps the best in the country.
Copy !req
170. - Really?
- Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
171. He makes it himself in a converted
barn at the end of the garden.
Copy !req
172. It's in the CAMRA guide.
They call it Arthur's Ale.
Copy !req
173. - Vodka and coke, Pat.
- Glass of water, please. Ace?
Copy !req
174. - Oh, vodka and...
- Ace?
Copy !req
175. Lemonade, please.
Copy !req
176. - Good choice.
- Lemonade?
Copy !req
177. Anything but the beer!
Copy !req
178. Hello, I'm the Doctor.
Copy !req
179. - And this is my friend.
- Ace.
Copy !req
180. There we are, sir. £5, please.
Copy !req
181. - How much?
- Well, remember we are in the future.
Copy !req
182. Here, £5 piece.
Copy !req
183. Thank you, sir.
Copy !req
184. Do you mind? It's a very
valuable piece of coinage.
Copy !req
185. Be on maximum alert.
If the Doctor is involved,
Copy !req
186. look out for a police
telephone box. Over.
Copy !req
187. Look out for what?
Copy !req
188. Oh, shame.
Copy !req
189. So you've met Peter?
Copy !req
190. Mmm. Very knowledgeable fellow.
Copy !req
191. Hmm. It's one way of putting it.
He's got this thing about King Arthur.
Copy !req
192. Digs things up out of
the ground by the lake.
Copy !req
193. Well, he is an archaeologist.
Copy !req
194. Can't see it myself, all
that patient scraping about.
Copy !req
195. You know, I get the urge to bung
half a kilo of TNT down the hole
Copy !req
196. - and bring it all up in one go.
- Now you're talking!
Copy !req
197. The point of archaeology is
to carefully recover the past,
Copy !req
198. - not disintegrate it.
- Wouldn't make much difference.
Copy !req
199. The only half decent thing Peter's
ever found is that scabbard.
Copy !req
200. You could use something
with more brisance.
Copy !req
201. More brisance than
trinitrotoluene? Like what?
Copy !req
202. How remarkable.
Copy !req
203. - Tell you outside.
- Why outside?
Copy !req
204. He gets upset when I
talk about explosives.
Copy !req
205. - Interesting, isn't it?
- Yes.
Copy !req
206. I wish I could see what it looks like.
Copy !req
207. I can feel its presence sometimes.
Copy !req
208. Touch it.
Copy !req
209. My! It's hot.
Copy !req
210. No, now it's cold.
Copy !req
211. Every so often I get the
strangest feeling about it.
Copy !req
212. What kind of feeling?
Copy !req
213. Ooh, that it's waiting for something.
Copy !req
214. Stupid, really.
Copy !req
215. Waiting for something, or someone.
Copy !req
216. There is the enemy. Kill him.
Copy !req
217. I'm surprised it still fits.
Copy !req
218. I should have thrown it
out while I had the chance.
Copy !req
219. And that, too.
Copy !req
220. You could have said no.
Copy !req
221. I could have, Doris,
but I still have my duty.
Copy !req
222. This isn't duty, you want
to go. I mean, do I...
Copy !req
223. All this means so little to you.
Copy !req
224. - I will be coming back.
- You don't need to go.
Copy !req
225. You don't need to go on
playing soldier any more.
Copy !req
226. I'm not playing.
Copy !req
227. Elizabeth!
Copy !req
228. Ah, I need to use your telephone,
the one in my car isn't working.
Copy !req
229. Yes, call. External.
Copy !req
230. Sedgewick, Carbury Trust.
Copy !req
231. Mr Warmsly, just the person.
Copy !req
232. There's a convoy just off the road by
the lake with a nuclear missile in it.
Copy !req
233. Yes. No... Off!
Copy !req
234. - This scabbard...
- The line's dead.
Copy !req
235. This scabbard.
Copy !req
236. - Where did you find it?
- Here, locally. Why?
Copy !req
237. Where?
Copy !req
238. For the scabbard's worth...
Copy !req
239. ten of the sword.
Copy !req
240. Said Merlin.
Copy !req
241. Yeah. Careful with it. Yeah.
Copy !req
242. It was found here, at
the dig, by the lake.
Copy !req
243. - What period?
- Does it matter?
Copy !req
244. Eighth century, AD.
Copy !req
245. No, no, no. It's been waiting
around longer than that.
Copy !req
246. Waiting for what?
Copy !req
247. Waiting for me.
Copy !req
248. Alastair, I found this.
You'd forgotten it.
Copy !req
249. Oh, thank you.
Copy !req
250. - You will be careful?
- Of course.
Copy !req
251. I've always been careful.
Copy !req
252. Don't worry, I'll sort
this out and then come home.
Copy !req
253. Well, it was obvious I was never
gonna be the world's greatest artist.
Copy !req
254. Anyway, Mrs Parkinson, the art
teacher, asked me what it is, right.
Copy !req
255. So I told her it was a
lump of school Plasticine.
Copy !req
256. Well, I couldn't tell
her what it really was!
Copy !req
257. The homemade gelignite!
Copy !req
258. So, we're in the school corridor by now,
Copy !req
259. and Mrs Parkinson asks me to put
what she thinks is school Plasticine,
Copy !req
260. - back in the art room.
- So what did you do?
Copy !req
261. I tossed it over my shoulder, like that.
Copy !req
262. Landed right in the middle of class 1
C's prize-winning pottery pig collection.
Copy !req
263. And boom!
Copy !req
264. Boom!
Copy !req
265. It's hit the brewery!
Copy !req
266. - We better get the Doctor.
- Good idea.
Copy !req
267. - Did you see it?
Yeah.
Copy !req
268. - And?
- It looked like a bloke.
Copy !req
269. - A bloke, flying through the air?
- And then through a wall!
Copy !req
270. - You two, stay here.
- Oh, be serious, Professor!
Copy !req
271. - What's going on?
- Well, you better ask the Professor.
Copy !req
272. - What's going on?
- Shh.
Copy !req
273. - Doctor?
- Yes.
Copy !req
274. I can't see anything.
Copy !req
275. What was that?
Copy !req
276. not prevail.
Copy !req
277. Is it an android?
Copy !req
278. No. It's a human.
Copy !req
279. Merlin.
Copy !req
280. Against all hope.
Copy !req
281. You got it wrong,
mate, this is the Doctor.
Copy !req
282. Oh, he has many names, but
in my reckoning, he is Merlin.
Copy !req
283. You recognise my face, then?
Copy !req
284. No, not your aspect, but
your manner that betrays you.
Copy !req
285. Do you not ride the ship of time?
Copy !req
286. Does it not deceive the senses
being larger within than without?
Copy !req
287. Merlin, cease these
games and tell me truly,
Copy !req
288. is this the time?
Copy !req
289. - Time for what?
- Thou does not know, truly?
Copy !req
290. Do you think he'd be
asking if he did, tinhead?
Copy !req
291. Why, the answer to Excalibur's
call. The time of restitution.
Copy !req
292. The time when Arthur rises
to lead the Britons to war.
Copy !req
293. Vortigern's Lake, of course!
Copy !req
294. - Can you walk?
- Can someone answer a simple question?
Copy !req
295. What's wrong, Doctor?
Copy !req
296. Can someone tell me what
on earth is going on?
Copy !req
297. Well, if my hunch is right, the
Earth could be at the centre of a war
Copy !req
298. that doesn't even
belong to this dimension!
Copy !req
299. Freeze! Everyone stand nice and easy.
Copy !req
300. Listen, Winifred, we've got
to be somewhere urgently,
Copy !req
301. so please get out of the way.
Copy !req
302. You're under arrest! You
and your freaky friends.
Copy !req
303. Who are you calling freaky?
Copy !req
304. I can sort this out. Look,
if I can just explain...
Copy !req
305. Kill them! Kill Them now!
Copy !req
