1. Doctor! Doctor! Look out!Copy !req
2. Where's he gone? Have you seen him?
There he is. Stop! No!Copy !req
3. Watch out!Copy !req
4. There! There!Copy !req
5. That's what it did.
It went ROAR!Copy !req
6. And if you think that was the
most exciting day of my life,
wait till you hear the rest.Copy !req
7. Oh, boy!Copy !req
8. So there I was, with
that thing going ROAR!Copy !req
9. Here boy, eat the food. Come on.Copy !req
10. Look at the lovely food.
Isn't that nice? Yes, it is!Copy !req
11. Get out of here, quickly!Copy !req
12. Who would like a porkie choppie,
then? I said, "RUN!"Copy !req
13. Wrong one! You've made it worse!Copy !req
14. You said, "Blue!" I said NOT blue!Copy !req
15. Hold on.Copy !req
16. Ahhh!Copy !req
17. Aaagh! Aaagh!Copy !req
18. Hold on.Copy !req
19. Don't I know you?Copy !req
20. You can't imagine it.
The Doctor's machine.Copy !req
21. The most beautiful sound
in the world.Copy !req
22. That wasn't the first time I met
the Doctor and it certainly
wasn't the last. Oh, no!Copy !req
23. I just put that bit at the beginning
because it's a brilliant opening.Copy !req
24. This is the story of me and my
encounters with alien life forms.Copy !req
25. But be warned!Copy !req
26. Because it is gonna get sca-a-ary.Copy !req
27. I need a remote control zoom.Copy !req
28. I'm having to do that
with the lean, sca-a-a-ary.Copy !req
29. But look, don't worry, cos it's not
just me sitting here talking. Oh, no.Copy !req
30. That's Ursula on camera. Hello!Copy !req
31. My good friend, Ursula Blake.
On my brand new camera.Copy !req
32. That was my family home, down there.Copy !req
33. I did try,
but there's two women live there now.Copy !req
34. They're a bit severe.Copy !req
35. Never mind,
but that's where it all started.Copy !req
36. Cos that's
when I first met the Doctor.Copy !req
37. What was it, I must've been
three or four years old.Copy !req
38. Middle of the night
I went downstairsCopy !req
39. and there was this... man.Copy !req
40. What happened?Copy !req
41. Elton? Tell me. Why was he there?Copy !req
42. I dunno. Still don't know.Copy !req
43. All those years ago.Copy !req
44. OK! First things first.Copy !req
45. My name is Elton,
not to be confused with...Copy !req
46. I left school. I got a job,
transport manager for Rita Logistics,Copy !req
47. modest little haulage company,
perfectly normal life, and then...Copy !req
48. it all went mad!Copy !req
49. Two years ago, I was in town.Copy !req
50. I was stocking up,
nothing special, all the usual stuff.Copy !req
51. When all of a sudden...Copy !req
52. Shop window dummies!Copy !req
53. Come to life!Copy !req
54. I survived... Obviously.Copy !req
55. Twelve months later,
I'm back in town,Copy !req
56. looking for a new suit,
when I hear this plane overhead.Copy !req
57. But it wasn't over yet!
Cos then, Christmas Day...Copy !req
58. I'm in bed, fast asleep, nice
and cosy, when all of a sudden...Copy !req
59. Like, ptscccchhhh!Copy !req
60. I'm stuck in bed cos there's glass
everywhere and I was barefoot.Copy !req
61. I had to invent this rudimentary
pulley system just to reach my boots
and by the time I'd done that...Copy !req
62. that's when it all started happening.Copy !req
63. That's how I met Ursula.
His name is the Doctor.
That's how I met Victor Kennedy.Copy !req
64. You stupid man!Copy !req
65. That's how I met Jackie Tyler.
You don't meet many Elton's.Copy !req
66. And that's how I
finally met the Doctor...Copy !req
67. and realised the truth.Copy !req
68. I should say,Copy !req
69. this isn't my whole life -
it's not all spaceships and stuff.Copy !req
70. Cos I'm into all sorts of things.Copy !req
71. I like football.Copy !req
72. I like a drink. I like Spain.Copy !req
73. And if there's one thing I really,
really love,Copy !req
74. then it's Jeff Lynne
and the Electric Light Orchestra.Copy !req
75. Cos you can't beat a bit of ELO.Copy !req
76. So!Copy !req
77. Great big spaceship hanging over
London, imagine the theories!Copy !req
78. The internet went into meltdown!Copy !req
79. But I kept on digging.Copy !req
80. Something was going on.Copy !req
81. Oh, yes! And then one day,
on some obscure little blogCopy !req
82. by someone called Ursula Blake,
it was like a chance in a million.Copy !req
83. 'It was him. It was that man
again, but the photo was new,
it was taken on Christmas Day.Copy !req
84. 'But Christmas just gone
and he looked exactly the same.'
His name is the Doctor.Copy !req
85. Doctor what? That's all anyone knows.Copy !req
86. But Christmas Day, I was
taking photos all over the place.Copy !req
87. I went mad with it all, spaceships
and lasers and everything.Copy !req
88. We all went to Trafalgar Square
that night, cos everyone was
celebrating, just being alive.Copy !req
89. I snapped him in passing,
that's all. He was just some bloke.Copy !req
90. I didn't realise he was significant,
until Mr Skinner pointed it out.Copy !req
91. Who's Mr Skinner?Copy !req
92. Oh, there's a few of us.Copy !req
93. The inner sanctum.
All studying this Doctor.Copy !req
94. I've seen him,
the Doctor, I swear to you.Copy !req
95. I saw him when I was a kid. He was
in my house and he was downstairs.Copy !req
96. Don't tell me. He looked exactly
the same then as he does now. Yes!Copy !req
97. Yes!Copy !req
98. Oh, my God, you believe me!Copy !req
99. 'So that's how I met Ursula.
All thanks to the Doctor.Copy !req
100. 'Turns out we read all the same sites
and she only lived half a mile away.Copy !req
101. She was like a proper mate.
Poor Ursula.'Copy !req
102. But like she said, there was this
little community, the select few,Copy !req
103. all with their stories of the Doctor.Copy !req
104. 'This little gang used to meet up,
underneath the old library
on Maccateer Street.Copy !req
105. 'Mr Skinner, first name Colin,
but we always called him Mr Skinner.Copy !req
106. 'I don't know why, we just did.'
To me, the Doctor isn't a man,Copy !req
107. he's more a collection
of archetypes...Copy !req
108. 'Then there was Bridget.' All
these different Doctors come and go,Copy !req
109. but the single constant factor
is this faux-police box. It keeps
cropping up, throughout history.Copy !req
110. 'She lived way up north but she
travelled down just for the meetings.Copy !req
111. 'Then there was Bliss...'
What I'm trying to do,Copy !req
112. is sum up the Doctor,
what he means to us.Copy !req
113. 'She was ever so sweet, Bliss.Copy !req
114. '"Bless Bliss," we used to say.'
What he could represent
and what he should representCopy !req
115. and what he...Copy !req
116. never won't represent, sort of
thing. We should have a name.Copy !req
117. You know, as a group.Copy !req
118. Names are very important.Copy !req
119. What we need is a good, strong name,
like a team, something like...Copy !req
120. London Investigation
'n' Detective Agency.Copy !req
121. LINDA for short. Say it again?Copy !req
122. London Investigation
'n' Detective Agency.Copy !req
123. 'N'? Fish 'n' chips!Copy !req
124. Rock 'n' roll! Chakademus 'n' Pliers!Copy !req
125. LINDA! Oh, I like it, it's not too
solemn! I like the 'N'!Copy !req
126. We're the men from LINDA!
And the women! LINDA united!Copy !req
127. Did you think of that on the spot?
No, I've wanted to use it for years.Copy !req
128. I give you, LINDA!
LINDA!Copy !req
129. So we'd all meet up, every week.Copy !req
130. We'd talk about the Doctor for a bit,Copy !req
131. but after a while,
Bridget started cooking.Copy !req
132. Oh, my God, that's gorgeous!Copy !req
133. No, really. Wow!
Oh, rest of you, get your hands off!Copy !req
134. 'Next thing you know,
Mr Skinner started his readings,
cos he was writing his own novel.'Copy !req
135. "That's the last time you ride the
Ghost Train, Johnny Franzetta, now
say your prayers!"Copy !req
136. To be continued.Copy !req
137. No-o-o-o! 'Time went on, we got to
know each other better and better.'Copy !req
138. I only started all this because
my daughter disappeared.Copy !req
139. But it wasn't aliens
that took her away.Copy !req
140. It was just drugs.Copy !req
141. I come down to London every week
and I just keep looking for her.Copy !req
142. Oh, Bridget...Copy !req
143. 'Then it turned out that
Bridget could play the pianoCopy !req
144. and I confessed my love of ELO.
Next thing you know, musical LINDA!Copy !req
145. Just for fun.Copy !req
146. Your go.Copy !req
147. Grooves! Your go.Copy !req
148. Now, careful, mind the cables.Copy !req
149. 'And that's when it all changed.Copy !req
150. 'That Tuesday night in March.Copy !req
151. 'That's when he arrived.'Copy !req
152. Lights. 'That's when we met Victor
Kennedy and the Golden Age was gone.'Copy !req
153. So, we meet at last.Copy !req
154. "LINDA". Pleased to meet you, sir.
I'm sorry, was the music too loud?Copy !req
155. No, no, no, I don't shake hands.Copy !req
156. Back, back.
I suffer from a skin complaint.Copy !req
157. Ex-ee-ma. Oh, you mean Eczema.Copy !req
158. Oh, this is worse, much worse,
I blister to the touch. Back,
back, all of you further, further.Copy !req
159. Thank you.Copy !req
160. Sorry, don't mind me asking,
but who are you?Copy !req
161. I am your salvation.Copy !req
162. That's the Doctor.
That's really him.Copy !req
163. You've forgotten
your purpose in life.Copy !req
164. You with your band and your
cakes and your blubbing and
all the while he still exists.Copy !req
165. The Doctor. Look at him. Just look!Copy !req
166. Move back! Move back all of you.Copy !req
167. Wait for this bit. The picture
cuts out but the sound continues.Copy !req
168. Listen. Just listen. Listen
to the sound of the universe.Copy !req
169. That's...Copy !req
170. What is it? What's wrong? Leave him!Copy !req
171. You've heard it before, haven't you?Copy !req
172. When? When was it? Where?
Where were you?Copy !req
173. I'd forgotten...Copy !req
174. till now.Copy !req
175. But it was that night.Copy !req
176. What night?Copy !req
177. I was just a kid.Copy !req
178. That's why I went downstairs.Copy !req
179. It woke me up.Copy !req
180. That noise...Copy !req
181. But what is it?Copy !req
182. What does it mean?
That is the sound of his spaceship.Copy !req
183. Right then! Homework!
Using the Torchwood files,Copy !req
184. we can look at the old databases
in a completely new light.Copy !req
185. We are able to build up a more
detailed profile of the Doctor.
I've allocated tasks to each of you.Copy !req
186. I'd like you to... Careful!
Watch the ex-ee-ma!Copy !req
187. I would like you to
complete your targets.Copy !req
188. We'll meet back here this time
next week, one step closer
to catching the Doctor.Copy !req
189. Well, don't just sit there! Move!Copy !req
190. Um, Bliss. It is Bliss, isn't it?Copy !req
191. Yes. Could I have a word
with you in private, please?Copy !req
192. Course you can, yeah. Thank you.Copy !req
193. Goodbye, goodbye.Copy !req
194. Better get to work. Lots to do.Copy !req
195. I never thought of it as work. It's
what we always wanted, though -Copy !req
196. to find the Doctor. Yeah, I suppose.Copy !req
197. All of a sudden, without
anyone saying so,
we were working for Victor Kennedy.Copy !req
198. 'And we had to admit, he was right,
his methods were much more rigorous.Copy !req
199. 'It felt like we were getting closer
and closer to the Doctor.'Copy !req
200. Mr Kennedy? Yes.Copy !req
201. We were wondering... No sign of
Bliss, do you know where she is?Copy !req
202. Yes. Didn't she tell you? She's
getting married.
She left a message.Copy !req
203. It'll never last. Stupid girl.
Come on, back to work!Copy !req
204. But we did get lucky once.
A police box, newly-arrived...Copy !req
205. It says newly arrived
today in Woolwich.Copy !req
206. Well, don't just stand there!
Move! Move! Go! Go!Copy !req
207. But don't get excited.
That's where you came in.Copy !req
208. Woolwich, police box,
red bucket, blue bucket,Copy !req
209. me so stupid, etc...Copy !req
210. Useless! I just froze!Copy !req
211. You met him and you froze?
You stupid man!Copy !req
212. You can't hit me cos you don't
touch, you said so. I can use this!Copy !req
213. Use that cane on him and you'll
get one hell of a smack off me!Copy !req
214. And then a good kick. Is that
completely understood, Mr Kennedy?Copy !req
215. Duly noted.Copy !req
216. Ursula Blake,Copy !req
217. most likely to fight back.Copy !req
218. Right then! We'll change tack.
We'll approach this sideways.Copy !req
219. If we're to discover the
truth about the Doctor,Copy !req
220. then we should try to find... her.Copy !req
221. When it comes to the Doctor's
companion, the Torchwood
files are strangely lacking.Copy !req
222. It seems the evidence
has been corrupted,
something called Bad Wolf virus.Copy !req
223. At least we've got these
photographs.Copy !req
224. They're first-hand evidence...
Elton?Copy !req
225. Oh, it was a London accent,
definitely, she's from London.Copy !req
226. So we hit the streets.
We get out there.Copy !req
227. We take the photograph. Someone's
got to know who she is. Somewhere.Copy !req
228. Yes, but London's a big place.
I should know - my own
daughter's out there.Copy !req
229. Bridget, don't make this personal.Copy !req
230. I don't like to be touched literally
or metaphorically. I haven't got
the time.Copy !req
231. Find me that girl! Go!Copy !req
232. Now! Move!Copy !req
233. 'And so it began.
The impossible task -Copy !req
234. 'to scour the mean streets.Copy !req
235. 'To search a major capital
city for an unknown girl.Copy !req
236. To hunt down that face in a seething
metropolis of lost souls,Copy !req
237. 'to find that one girl
in ten million.'Copy !req
238. Oh, that's Rose Tyler,
she lives just down there,Copy !req
239. Bucknall House, number 48,
her mother's Jackie Tyler.
Nice family, bit odd.Copy !req
240. Oi! Jackie!
Hello, sweetheart!Copy !req
241. I'll see you down the Spinning Wheel
tonight, yeah? Pub quiz. Get 'em in!Copy !req
242. 'I'd been trained for this.Copy !req
243. 'Victor Kennedy's classes covered
basic surveillance and espionage.Copy !req
244. 'Step one, engage your target.Copy !req
245. 'Find some excuse to
start a conversation.Copy !req
246. 'But how was I gonna do this?'Copy !req
247. 'Scuse me, you couldn't give us quid
for two fifties, could you? Yeah.Copy !req
248. Ta-dah! Lovely, cheers.Copy !req
249. 'Step Two,
without provoking suspicion, get onCopy !req
250. 'first-name terms with the target.'
My name's Jackie, by the way.Copy !req
251. Um! Elton. Oh, you don't
meet many Eltons, do you?Copy !req
252. Apart from the obvious.Copy !req
253. 'Step three, ingratiate yourself
with a joke or some humorous device.'Copy !req
254. I tell you what, Elton, here we are,
complete strangers
and I'm flashing you my knickers!Copy !req
255. 'Step four, find some subtle way to
integrate yourself into the
target's household.'Copy !req
256. Mind you, I'm only down here
cos my washing machine's knackered.Copy !req
257. I don't suppose you're any good
at fixing things, are you?Copy !req
258. There we are, it was the fuse!Copy !req
259. Nothing wrong with the machine,
that's fine, all working.Copy !req
260. Oh, Elton, I should have you on tap!Copy !req
261. I used to have this little
mate called Mickey,
he did all that stuff.Copy !req
262. He's gone now, bless him.Copy !req
263. Well, if you need me, give us a call,
I'll jot down my number.Copy !req
264. You do that, and I'll make us
a cup of tea, go and sit down.Copy !req
265. Put the telly on if you want,Copy !req
266. I can't bear it silent.Copy !req
267. It's just me, these days,
rattling about.Copy !req
268. There's my daughter,
but she's gone travelling.Copy !req
269. I keep her bedroom all nice and
ready though, just in case she comes
back. And her name is? Rose.Copy !req
270. That's a nice name - Rose.Copy !req
271. So, where is she travelling?Copy !req
272. All over. She's got her mobile,
I get a call, now and then.
Not as often as I'd like.Copy !req
273. Still - that age, who can
be bothered phoning home?Copy !req
274. Who's she with, is it mates, or...?
Just mates.Copy !req
275. Well, if I had you,
making a nice cuppa tea like this,
I wouldn't stray far from home.Copy !req
276. You're a charmer.Copy !req
277. Say it again!Copy !req
278. Magnificent! Oh, I could kiss you,
except I can't. The ex-ee-ma!Copy !req
279. I even got a picture of her
on my phone. That's amazing.Copy !req
280. You've achieved Steps 1-4 in precise
order, how did you manage it?Copy !req
281. Oh, I had to work hard. She keeps
everything very close to her chest.Copy !req
282. That's hell of a chest.
But how do you move on?Copy !req
283. Step five, that's the problem.
Step Five.Copy !req
284. This week's homework! I want a full
plan of attack from each of you!Copy !req
285. Now go on! Vamoose!Copy !req
286. Avanti! There's work to do!Copy !req
287. And Elton, keep infiltrating!Copy !req
288. You will do anything to get that
information, boy, anything! Yes, sirCopy !req
289. Oh, oh, Bridget...Copy !req
290. Bridget? Oh, yes. Could I have a
word with you in private? Um.Copy !req
291. Mr Skinner's giving me a lift.Copy !req
292. I can drop you to the station.
I'm sure Mr Skinner won't mind?Copy !req
293. Not at all.Copy !req
294. Bridget, I'll see you next week.
All right, then.Copy !req
295. Bye bye.Copy !req
296. Now Mr Skinner, I don't mean to pry.Copy !req
297. But did you give Bridget a little
kiss back there? I think I did.Copy !req
298. And, if you get your way, might
there be more little kisses between
the two of you? I think there might.Copy !req
299. I knew it! That's brilliant.Copy !req
300. Now don't get excited. We'll see.Copy !req
301. Infiltration went well,
cos Jackie kept phoning up,
needing this and needing that.Copy !req
302. It was strange, the amount
of things that needed doing,
it's like that flat was jinxed.Copy !req
303. It's weird, these fuses keep blowing.Copy !req
304. You must be near a sub-station,
cos then you get power surges.Copy !req
305. Still, there we go, fixed!Copy !req
306. There we are. Little reward
for my favourite handyman.Copy !req
307. Oh, well I shouldn't really,
I've got the car outside.Copy !req
308. You can always splash out on a taxi,Copy !req
309. or... whatever.Copy !req
310. See what happens.Copy !req
311. Right, yeah. Cheers.Copy !req
312. Cheers!Copy !req
313. Very nice, what's that, French?Copy !req
314. Suppose so. They know how
to do things, the French.Copy !req
315. Is that from Rose?
I mean, is she in France?Copy !req
316. My daughter won't be coming back
tonight, just in case you're
wondering.Copy !req
317. We've got the place to ourselves.Copy !req
318. Right.Copy !req
319. Nice music.Copy !req
320. Il Divo. Yeah.Copy !req
321. You were saying.Copy !req
322. Power surges.
From the sub-station, yeah.Copy !req
323. Is that why it gets so hot in here?Copy !req
324. Is it hot? Oh, I think so.
You should take your jacket off.Copy !req
325. No, I'm fine. Oh, look at you, you
must be boiling. Oh, your shirt!Copy !req
326. Sorry! No, I'm fine, it's all right.
I've ruined it.Copy !req
327. No, honestly, it's fine. Take
it off, I'll put it in the wash.Copy !req
328. Oh, come on, it's only a little drop.Copy !req
329. There now.Copy !req
330. Ruined.Copy !req
331. And there I was.Copy !req
332. The ultimate Step Five!Copy !req
333. The perfect infiltration.Copy !req
334. Target...Copy !req
335. Jackie Tyler.Copy !req
336. You're right - it is a bit hot!
But it's about to get hotter!Copy !req
337. I'll see you soon.Copy !req
338. All right, be careful. Bye.Copy !req
339. Everything all right?Copy !req
340. That was my daughter.Copy !req
341. Oh, look at you. I'm sorry.Copy !req
342. I was just being stupid.Copy !req
343. Is she OK?Copy !req
344. She's so far away.Copy !req
345. I get left here sometimes...Copy !req
346. and I don't know where she is.Copy !req
347. Anything could be
happening to her, anything.Copy !req
348. And I just go a bit mad.Copy !req
349. Put your shirt back on.Copy !req
350. Where is she?Copy !req
351. Doesn't matter.Copy !req
352. I'm sorry.Copy !req
353. You'd better go.Copy !req
354. Actually...Copy !req
355. 'And that's when it struck me.Copy !req
356. 'Funny, the things you think of,
with your shirt off.Copy !req
357. 'But that's when I realised
what was really important.'Copy !req
358. Never mind about Rose.Copy !req
359. I'm not even gonna ask.Copy !req
360. And I will put my shirt back on,
because I am gonna go out
and get us both a pizza.Copy !req
361. Cos I reckon you need cheering up.
She goes swanning off and who's
left to care about you, eh?Copy !req
362. So I say, nice bit of pizza,
we'll put the telly on nice and loud,Copy !req
363. we'll annoy that woman next door,
just you and me, as proper mates.
Yeah?Copy !req
364. Mates! Go on,Copy !req
365. say, "Yes."Copy !req
366. Yes!Copy !req
367. All of a sudden,
a lot of things made sense.Copy !req
368. I'd got so lost in conspiracies
and aliens and targets,
I'd been missing the obvious.Copy !req
369. Cos I did like Jackie.Copy !req
370. But I liked someone
else even more.Copy !req
371. Right. Let's get inside, then.Copy !req
372. The pizza's getting cold.Copy !req
373. I went in your coat.Copy !req
374. For once in my life,
I thought, I'll pay.Copy !req
375. I thought, he's such a nice man,
he won't accept anythingCopy !req
376. so I'll just slip a tenner in his
pocket and look what I found.Copy !req
377. A photograph of my daughter.Copy !req
378. No, no, no. It's not like that.
I can explain. I bet you can.Copy !req
379. I wasn't being pervy or anything,
I wasn't after her.Copy !req
380. I was looking for the Doctor.Copy !req
381. Oh, I know that. I worked that out.
Cos it's never me, is it?Copy !req
382. No, that's how it started,
but I changed my mind.Copy !req
383. Let me tell you something
about those who get left behind.Copy !req
384. Because it's hard
and that's what you become. Hard.Copy !req
385. But if there's
one thing I've learnt,
it's that I will never let her down.Copy !req
386. So whatever you want,
I'm warning you. Back off.Copy !req
387. But Jackie, I only wanted to
meet him. I thought you liked me.Copy !req
388. I do. Just get out of here!Copy !req
389. I said get out!Copy !req
390. And leave me alone!Copy !req
391. And she was right.
It's shameful. We used that woman!Copy !req
392. I knew I couldn't trust you!
You broke cover, you stupid
little man, you failed Step Five.Copy !req
393. I don't care about Step Five!Copy !req
394. Cos it's all gone wrong, Mr Kennedy,
ever since you turned up.Copy !req
395. We used to come here, every week
and we'd have a laugh.Copy !req
396. We were friends.Copy !req
397. No wonder they stopped coming,
I mean there's no Bliss any more and
even Bridget, she hasn't turned up.Copy !req
398. I've been phoning and phoning,
there's no reply. Who can blame her?Copy !req
399. I'm sorry, Victor,
but you're on your own.Copy !req
400. Cos I'm leaving,
and so are you, Mr Skinner.Copy !req
401. And as for you, Ursula,
you're coming with meCopy !req
402. and we're going to the Golden Locust
and we're gonna have a Chinese!Copy !req
403. What's that got to do with it?
I mean, you and me, together.Copy !req
404. Having a meal.Copy !req
405. If you want.Copy !req
406. Oh, I'd love it!Copy !req
407. But you can't leave.
You'll never know what he was doing.Copy !req
408. You'll never know what he was doing
in your house, all those years ago.Copy !req
409. No, I'll never know.Copy !req
410. Ursula?Copy !req
411. Get your stuff.Copy !req
412. Mr Skinner, are you coming?Copy !req
413. Not to the Chinese, if you don't
mind, just sort of walking out.Copy !req
414. I certainly am! Victor...Copy !req
415. Good luck.Copy !req
416. Goodbye.Copy !req
417. Mr Skinner?Copy !req
418. W-would you stay
for a minute, please?Copy !req
419. We're walking out.Copy !req
420. I've got numbers for Bridget.Copy !req
421. I've kept records. I've got old
numbers. We could track her down.
Together, you and I.Copy !req
422. That's more like
the old team spirit.Copy !req
423. You two have a nice time.
I hope you find her.Copy !req
424. I'll e-mail you.Copy !req
425. Just come a little closer.Copy !req
426. Mm! Yeah, I love prawns.Copy !req
427. Oh, I left my phone.Copy !req
428. Really? Yeah. It's not in my pocket.Copy !req
429. So much for the big exit.Copy !req
430. Yeah. C'mon, hurry up.Copy !req
431. I'm not stopping, I just left my...Copy !req
432. phone.Copy !req
433. Victor? Take your phone and go.Copy !req
434. Where's Mr Skinner?Copy !req
435. He's gone to the toilet.Copy !req
436. But we haven't got toilets. We have
to use the pub on the corner.Copy !req
437. Well, that's where he is, then.Copy !req
438. Help me!Copy !req
439. What was that? It was nothing.
It was nothing! Help me! Get out.Copy !req
440. That's Mr Skinner.Copy !req
441. Victor, look at your hands.Copy !req
442. Look at the rest of me!Copy !req
443. You've dabbled with aliens.Copy !req
444. Now meet the genuine article!Copy !req
445. Oh, my God! You're a...Copy !req
446. thing. A thing?Copy !req
447. This thing is my true form.Copy !req
448. Better than that crude
pink shape you call a body.Copy !req
449. What happened? Where am I?Copy !req
450. Ursula, is that you?Copy !req
451. That's Mr Skinner.Copy !req
452. What have you done to him?
I've absorbed him.Copy !req
453. Colin? Is that you?
Colin? Bridget, my love?Copy !req
454. Oh, my God, that's Bridget!Copy !req
455. Colin, where are you?
I'm here, Bridget. It's all right.Copy !req
456. I'm close.Copy !req
457. You've absorbed them both.Copy !req
458. What about Bliss? Where is she?Copy !req
459. What?Copy !req
460. I said you really don't want
to know. You've absorbed them.Copy !req
461. You're some sort of...Copy !req
462. Absorbathon. An Absorbaling.Copy !req
463. An Abzorbaloff!Copy !req
464. Yes. I like that. Let them go.Copy !req
465. I'm ordering you.Copy !req
466. Let those people go!Copy !req
467. But they taste so sweet.Copy !req
468. Just think about the Doctor.Copy !req
469. Oh, how will HE taste?Copy !req
470. All that experience,
all that knowledge.Copy !req
471. And if I've got to absorb Jackie
Tyler to get to him, then so be it.Copy !req
472. Don't you dare!Copy !req
473. If I have to beat them out of you...Copy !req
474. No, no, please don't hit me!Copy !req
475. Look at me!
I'm such a slow and clumsy beast.Copy !req
476. Please don't hit me.Copy !req
477. Well, then, give them back.Copy !req
478. What, you mean like this?Copy !req
479. Just one touch! That's all it takes!Copy !req
480. No! No!Copy !req
481. Leave her alone! Don't touch me.Copy !req
482. Oh, Elton. I'm so sorry.
You can't touch me.Copy !req
483. Ursula!Copy !req
484. "Most likely to fight back" indeed!Copy !req
485. Leave her alone!Copy !req
486. Yes! No! That's not fair!Copy !req
487. She tastes like chicken.Copy !req
488. Elton, where are you?Copy !req
489. Please.Copy !req
490. Mr Kennedy, please.Copy !req
491. I'm asking you.Copy !req
492. I'm begging you.Copy !req
493. Give her back to me. I can't.Copy !req
494. Once they've been absorbed,
the process is irreversible.Copy !req
495. Wait a minute.Copy !req
496. Now I've been absorbed,
I can read his thoughts!Copy !req
497. Oh, my God.Copy !req
498. Elton, you're next! Get out of here!Copy !req
499. Now you've seen him,
he can't let you go. Just run!Copy !req
500. Go on! Never mind me, get out!Copy !req
501. Isn't she the clever one? Run, Elton!Copy !req
502. RUN! Save yourself, boy!
Run for your life!Copy !req
503. Oh, what's the matter?Copy !req
504. Have you given up so soon?Copy !req
505. There's no point.Copy !req
506. Where would I go?Copy !req
507. Everything I ever wanted...Copy !req
508. Has been absorbed.
Oh, Elton. Don't say that.Copy !req
509. But it's true!Copy !req
510. Then join us. Join us, little man.Copy !req
511. Come on. There's everlasting peace.
Come on, join us -Copy !req
512. dissolve into me.Copy !req
513. Someone wants a word with you.Copy !req
514. You've upset my mum.Copy !req
515. A great big absorbing creature
from outer space,
and you're having a go at me?Copy !req
516. No-one upsets my mum. At last.Copy !req
517. The greatest feast of all -
the Doctor. Interesting.Copy !req
518. Some sort of Absorbatrix.Copy !req
519. Absorbaklon, Abzorbaloff...Copy !req
520. Abzorbaloff, yes.
Is it me, or is he a bit Slitheen?Copy !req
521. Not from
Raxacoricofallapatorius, are you?Copy !req
522. No, I'm not! They're swine.Copy !req
523. I spit on them.
I was born on their twin planet.Copy !req
524. Really? What's the twin planet
of Raxacoricofallapatorius? Clom.Copy !req
525. Clom? Clom, yes. And I'll return
there victorious, once I possess
your travelling machine.Copy !req
526. Well, that's never gonna happen.
Oh, it will.Copy !req
527. You'll surrender yourself to me,
Doctor, or this one dies.Copy !req
528. You see, I've read about you,
Doctor.Copy !req
529. I've studied you. So passionate.Copy !req
530. So sweet. You wouldn't let
an innocent man die.Copy !req
531. And I'll absorb him
unless you give yourself to me.Copy !req
532. Sweet, maybe.Copy !req
533. Passionate, I suppose. But
don't ever mistake that for nice.Copy !req
534. Do what you want.Copy !req
535. He'll die, Doctor! Go on, then.Copy !req
536. So be it. Mind you, the others
might have something to say. Others?Copy !req
537. He's right! The Doctor's right!
We can't let him.Copy !req
538. Oh, Mr Skinner, Bridget, pull.Copy !req
539. No! For God's sake, pull,
if it's the last thing we ever do!Copy !req
540. Bliss! All of us, together -Copy !req
541. come on! Pull!Copy !req
542. LINDA united!Copy !req
543. PU-U-U-ULL!Copy !req
544. Elton! The cane! Break it!Copy !req
545. My cane!Copy !req
546. Y'stupid man!Copy !req
547. Oh, no!Copy !req
548. What did I do?
The cane created a limitation field.Copy !req
549. Now it's broken, he can't stop.Copy !req
550. The absorber is being absorbed.
By what?Copy !req
551. By the Earth.Copy !req
552. Bye-bye, Elton.Copy !req
553. Bye-bye.Copy !req
554. Who was she?Copy !req
555. That was Ursula.Copy !req
556. And that's it.Copy !req
557. Almost.Copy !req
558. Because the Doctor
still had more to say.Copy !req
559. You don't remember, do you?
And then he explained.Copy !req
560. That night, all those years ago...Copy !req
561. There was a shadow in your house.Copy !req
562. A living shadow in the darkness.Copy !req
563. An elemental shade had
escaped from the Howling Halls.Copy !req
564. I stopped it, but...Copy !req
565. I wasn't in time to save her.Copy !req
566. I'm sorry.Copy !req
567. Because that was the night
my mother died.Copy !req
568. We forget because we must.Copy !req
569. So, there you go.Copy !req
570. Turns out I've had
the most terrible things happen
and the most brilliant things,Copy !req
571. and sometimes, well,
I can't tell the difference -Copy !req
572. they're all the same thing,
they're just me.Copy !req
573. You know, Stephen King
said once, he said,Copy !req
574. "Salvation and damnation
are the same thing,"Copy !req
575. and I never knew what he meant.Copy !req
576. But I do now...Copy !req
577. Cos the Doctor might be
wonderful, but, thinking back,Copy !req
578. I was having such a special time.Copy !req
579. Just for a bit,
I had this nice little gang.Copy !req
580. And they were destroyed.Copy !req
581. It's not his fault,Copy !req
582. but maybe that's what happens
if you touch the Doctor,Copy !req
583. even for a second.Copy !req
584. I keep thinking of Rose and JackieCopy !req
585. and how much longer
before they pay the price?Copy !req
586. Oh, now don't get all miserable.Copy !req
587. Come on, Elton, you've still got me.Copy !req
588. Oh, yeah,Copy !req
589. cos the Doctor said he could do
one last thing with his magic wand.Copy !req
590. If I can key into the
absorption matrix and
separate the last victim...Copy !req
591. It's too late for total
reconstruction, but...Copy !req
592. Elton! Fetch a spade!Copy !req
593. Even then, after all that,Copy !req
594. the Doctor saved me one last time.Copy !req
595. Here she is. Could be worse.Copy !req
596. At least I'll never age.Copy !req
597. And it really is quite peaceful.
You'd be surprised.Copy !req
598. It's a relationship. Of sorts.Copy !req
599. We manage.Copy !req
600. We've even got a bit of a love life.Copy !req
601. Oh, let's not go into that.Copy !req
602. And I don't care what anyone thinks -
I love her.Copy !req
603. Aaah!Copy !req
604. But the thing is...Copy !req
605. There y'are.Copy !req
606. I've even bought a remote zoom.Copy !req
607. But what I wanted to say is...Copy !req
608. ..y'know, when you're a kid,Copy !req
609. they tell you it's all "grow up,
get a job, get married, get a house,Copy !req
610. "have a kid and that's it".Copy !req
611. No.Copy !req
612. But the truth is, the world is
so much stranger than that...Copy !req
613. .. and so much darker...Copy !req
614. and so much madder.Copy !req
615. And SO much better.Copy !req
616. 30th Olympiad! That's great!Copy !req
617. They're not safe!
They're in the garden!
I'm begging you!Copy !req
618. In the last six days, three of
your children have been stolen.Copy !req
619. If we find the source
of that power...Copy !req
620. They're kids' pictures. Now get out!Copy !req
621. Chloe has a power. She's using
it to snatch the kids. Get out.Copy !req
622. If living things
can become drawings,Copy !req
623. then maybe drawings
can become living things.Copy !req
