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