00:08If I have not returned in an hour, you must fetch the police.
00:11Edmund!
00:13Don't fret, Neffy, my dear.
00:15All will be well, but we must get to the bottom of this dark and queer business,
00:18no matter what the cost.
00:34Mrs. Gillyflower!
00:35We have come about your husband, my dear.
00:38The tragedy.
00:39My husband?
00:41Your late husband.
00:43There must be some mistake.
00:46My husband is quite well.
00:55We seem very sorry for your loss.
01:01Well, fire, that's put me right off me mash.
01:06Another one?
01:07Another.
01:08It's not the first one I've had in here looking like that.
01:11The Crimson Horror.
01:13That's what they're calling it.
01:15I have no interest in the deplorable excesses of the penny dreadful.
01:19E.P.
01:20Payment in advance, Flower.
01:26Taking a big risk, you see I am.
01:28They'll have me vitals for fiddle strings.
01:30If they knew, I'd let you come to look at one of their precious stiffs.
01:36This stiff is my brother.
01:39I've come up from London to bring him home.
01:41Oh, I.
01:42Thank you for agreeing to this meeting.
01:44I've told you're the investigator to see if there are strange goings-on.
01:48I read of your brother's death.
01:50Another victim of the Crimson Horror, I believe.
01:53So it is claimed.
01:54He was a newspaper man.
01:56He and a young woman were working undercover.
01:58Tell me, madame, do you know what an octogram is?
02:03It's a silly superstition, sir.
02:05The belief that the eye can retain an image of the last thing it sees.
02:25Good grief.
02:26Oh, my God.
02:35Well, I'll be blowed.
02:37I think, madame, that we'd better make plans to head north.
02:53I think, madame, that we'll be doing this.
03:23According to my research, Sweetville's proprietor holds recruitment drives for her little community.
03:30She's only interested in the fittest and the most beautiful.
03:33You may rely on me, ma'am.
03:37I was, in fact, speaking to Jenny.
03:42Jenny.
03:45If this weak and fleshy boy is to represent us,
03:49I strongly advise the issuing of scissor grenades,
03:52limbo vapour,
03:53and triple blast brain splitters.
03:56What for?
03:59Just generally.
03:59Remember, we are going to the north.
04:09Bradford, that Babylon of the moderns with its crystal light and its glitter,
04:15all are swarmed with the wretched ruins of humanity.
04:20Men and women crushed by the devil's juggernaut.
04:25A moral turpitude can destroy the most delicate of lives, believe me, I know.
04:33I know.
04:36My own daughter, blinded in a drunken rage by my late husband.
04:44Her once beautiful eyes, pale and white as mistletoe berries.
04:52And what, my friends, is your story?
04:56Will you be found wanting when the end of days has come?
05:00When judgment rains down upon us all?
05:04Or will you be preserved against the coming apocalypse?
05:09Do not despair.
05:11I offer a way out.
05:14There is a different path.
05:17Sweet, Phil.
05:25Join us, join us, in this shining city on the hill.
05:33Bring me my bow of burning gold.
05:40Bring me my arrows of desire.
05:48You wish to join us, my dear?
05:50If it's all the same with you, ma'am.
05:52Oh, yes, dear. You do very nicely.
05:59If our stratagem succeeds, Jenny will infiltrate deep into the black heart of this curious place.
06:05And how will she locate the doctor?
06:06To find him, she needs only ignore all peep-out signs, go through every locked door and run towards any
06:14form of danger that presents itself.
06:16Business as usual, then.
06:18Business as usual.
06:21Business as usual.
06:23Business as usual.
06:25Business as usual.
06:54Did you think I'd forgotten you, dear monster?
07:18I've traveled from London. It's best to see you, Madame Vastra.
07:21You'd be so kind as to announce me, my good man.
07:24Who shall I say is calling?
07:34It asked for permission to enter and then it fell over. What are we to make of it?
07:40I imagine Mr. Thursey wants to know what progress we're making. The question is,
07:47how did the doctor's image come to be preserved on a dead man's eye? It's a
07:51scientific impossibility. What our journey is getting on.
07:55If she hasn't made contact by nightfall, I suggest a massive frontal assault on the factory,
07:59Madame. Casualties can be kept to perhaps as little as 80%.
08:04I think there may be subtler ways of proceeding, Strax. Suit yourself.
08:25I'm dead nervous, aren't you? You have to be sure, you see. Only the best for Sweetville. I hope my
08:32teeth don't let me down.
08:36I'm Abigail. Pleased to meet you. You're not local, are you? No. Up from London.
08:41Different here, I bet. Oh yeah. I've got a bleeding horse market.
08:48Do you know anyone who's come to Livia? In Sweetville Army? I had a pal who call me a three
08:53month back. She wrote to tell me how perfect it all were.
08:58Funny though, I've not had a peep from her since.
09:01Next please. Hang on, we're moving.
09:12What are you doing? Give me a favour. Cause a distraction. What? Swim. Have a funny turn.
09:19Fill up the vapors. You crackers. Go on. There's a guinea in it for you.
09:25Dumb.
09:25Help! Help!
09:32Oh, my God.
09:34No!
09:34NO!
09:38AAM!
09:43No!
09:46No!
09:49Let's go.
10:21Them new manufactories can do horrible things to a person.
10:25Horrible.
10:26I've pickled things in here.
10:29A fair turn your hair snowy as Topper Buckton Pike.
10:35Do you know what I'm looking for?
10:37Am I?
10:38All them bits found in Canal.
10:41A crimson horror.
10:54It hardly seems possible.
10:58Eh?
10:59I think...
11:00I think I have seen these symptoms before.
11:05Oh, aye.
11:06A long time ago.
11:08Oh, aye. How long?
11:10About 65 million years.
11:17I trust you had a pleasant day, Mama.
11:20Tolerable.
11:24Will Mr. Sweet ever join us for dinner, Mama?
11:28Mr. Sweet is rather tired tonight, I fear.
11:36Oh, dear me.
11:38Oh, how clumsy I'm getting.
11:40To keep the devil at bay.
11:43To keep the devil at bay.
11:55Let's do this around.
11:56Oh, my God.
12:01I don't know.
12:54I don't know.
13:11All right, mate.
13:12You just stay calm now.
13:19I could open this door. Would you like that?
13:26I thought you might.
13:29But you and me have got to come to an arrangement.
13:33Savvy?
13:37Nah, you sound well back, do you hear me?
13:40I don't mean no harm to you, but you try anything funny.
13:44And I'll leave you here to rot.
13:46Is that understood?
13:50Right.
14:02Doctor!
14:07What happened to you?
14:15Oh, you speak.
14:24Right.
14:25Right, we're getting out of here.
14:27Yes.
14:29Uh...
14:38Come on.
14:43Come on.
14:44Oh, shit.
14:46Ugh.
14:49Ugh.
14:54Ugh.
14:55Ugh.
14:55Hey, somebody.
14:56Oh.
14:58Ugh.
15:01Oh.
15:02Oh, my God.
15:08Oh, my God.
15:11Huh?
15:23Oh my god!
15:40You are all I have, monster.
15:42But all will be well, imperfect as we are.
15:47There will be room for us in the new Jerusalem.
16:00No. No!
16:03Where are you, monster?
16:05Where are you?
16:14You want to go in there?
16:48Ah! Miss me!
16:49Doctor!
16:50Jenny! Jenny! Jenny! Jenny! Jenny!
16:53Just when you think your favourite clock-picking Victorian gamer mate will never turn up!
16:59Jenny!
17:04You have no idea how good that feels.
17:07Right. Mrs. Guilleflower, we've got to stop her.
17:09And then there's Clara. Poor Clara. Where's Clara?
17:11Clara? Doctor, wait!
17:13Calm. Clara. I've got to find.
17:15What happened to you? How long have you been like that?
17:18Days, weeks, I don't know. Long story.
17:20I'll keep it short.
17:27OK, so...
17:27Not London, 1893.
17:32Yorkshire, 1893. Near enough!
17:34You're making a habit of this, getting us lost.
17:36Sorry. It's much better than it used to be.
17:39Ooh, I once spent hell of a long time trying to get a gobby Australian to Heathrow Airport.
17:43What for?
17:44Search me. Anyway.
17:49Braveheart Clara.
17:55It's another one, don't you see? Another victim! Why won't anyone of you listen?
18:00We'll listen.
18:03Mrs. Winifred Guilleflower, an astonishing woman. Prize-winning chemist and mechanical engineer. So why?
18:08Why has she decided to open up a match factory in her old home town?
18:12And no one who ever goes to live there ever seems to come out.
18:20Same as the rest.
18:22All dead from causes unknown and their flesh...
18:24Glowing.
18:25Like something manky in a coal cellar.
18:28They keep turning up in Canal.
18:30The Crimson Horror.
18:32Ooh, good name.
18:34Hey, that's good, isn't it? The Crimson Horror.
18:39I wonder what it is.
18:42Do you know the old Romany superstition, Clara?
18:46That the eye of a dead person retains an image of the last thing it sees.
18:49Nonsense, of course, unless the chemical composition of the body has been massively corrupted.
19:01Wow, this is nasty. An organic poison. A sort of venom. And you think it's connected to Sweetville?
19:09I do.
19:10Well, then, we need a plan.
19:14Doctor and Mrs. Smith. Oh, yes. You do very nicely.
19:19Oh, grand. Smashing.
19:22Hey, the missus and I couldn't be more chuff, couldn't be love.
19:25Eh?
19:29Sweetville will provide you with everything you need.
19:32You won't have to worry about a thing ever again.
19:35The name? Sweetville?
19:37Yes.
19:37Why not name it after yourself? After all, it's your creation.
19:40Gillyflower town, eh? Gillyflower land. You can have roller coasters.
19:44It is named in tribute to my partner.
19:47Your late partner?
19:48No. My silent partner.
19:51Mr. Sweet likes to keep himself to himself. Shall we move on?
19:56Who is here?
19:57Oh, names don't matter here.
19:59All you need to know is we only recruit the brightest and the best.
20:23Like pretty maids all in a row, the process improves with every attempt.
20:29Mr. Sweet is such a clever old thing.
20:33Oh, into the canal with the rejects, Ada.
20:55Sometimes the preservation process goes wrong. Only Mr. Sweet knows why.
21:00And only Mama is allowed to talk to Mr. Sweet.
21:03But if you're very good, you can stay here.
21:07You'll be my secret.
21:10My special monster.
21:14Shh.
21:44I shall marry you.,
21:45Poor Edmund must have come looking for us and then fallen into a vat of the pure venom, or was
21:51pushed.
21:53Didn't stand a chance.
21:54What is that stuff, though?
21:56Deadly poison. And Mrs. Gilliflower's been dipping her pilgrims in a dilute form to protect them, preserve them.
22:02The process didn't work on me, maybe because I'm not human. I ended up on the reject pile.
22:08Preserve them against what?
22:09Well, according to her, the coming apocalypse.
22:13When the end of days has come, and judgment rains down upon us all.
22:19What?
22:20Nothing.
22:21No, no, no. What?
22:22Something Mrs. Gilliflower said. One of her sermons.
22:26Madam will come looking for me. We'd best get on.
22:28Yes, Clara. I've got to find Clara.
22:30But, Doctor!
22:32Clara's dead.
22:35Isn't she?
22:37It's complicated.
22:41Oh, no, no.
22:44Oh, no.
22:45Horse!
22:46You have failed in your mission!
22:49We're lost. With no sign of Sweetville.
22:52Do you have any final words before your summary execution?
22:58The usual story.
23:01The fourth one this week, but I'm not even hungry.
23:04Sweetville, sir.
23:06Do you know it?
23:07Turn around when possible. Then, at the end of the road, turn right.
23:12What?
23:12Bear left for a quarter of a mile until I've reached your destination.
23:24Thank you. What is your name?
23:26Thomas, sir. Thomas Thomas.
23:28I think you will do well, Thomas Thomas.
23:35Aren't we talking about the same person? About that, Clara?
23:39Doctor!
23:44I couldn't see much from where I was, but I think she survived the process.
23:48She must be here somewhere.
23:49But Clara died. The isolated... Doctor!
23:54Wait, it's...
23:56It's complicated.
24:17What is the meaning of this?
24:21Oh, Mama.
24:23I have been foolish.
24:25I have formed a sentimental attachment.
24:31An attachment?
24:33To whom?
24:35A young man.
24:37Unlike the others, he survived rejection.
24:40He must be strong, worthy of salvation.
24:42Wrecker! Berserker!
24:44You have loosed a reject onto the outside world.
24:47I have disappointed you.
24:49My plans must be accelerated.
24:51Nothing must interfere with the great work.
24:54But please say there is still room for me in your new Eden, Mama.
24:57Promise me that.
24:58I'll set my pilgrims onto him.
24:59No!
25:01Kindly, do not claw and slobber at my cringling.
25:05You know I cannot bear to look at sick people.
25:08Promise me you will not abandon me, Mama.
25:11Promise me that.
25:12Do you not yet understand?
25:14There can be no place for people such as you.
25:17And only perfection is good enough for myself and Mr. Sweet.
25:24The bright day is done, child.
25:26And you are for the dark.
25:37Can she be revived like you are?
25:40I hope so.
25:46Doctor.
25:48Oh, great, great attack of the supermodels.
25:53Time for a plan.
25:55No, Doctor.
25:56This one's on me.
26:13That is a plan.
26:15Okay.
26:17Have a new plan.
26:18Run!
26:18Tata!
26:19Ah-ha!
26:20Ah-ha!
26:21Ah-ha!
26:24Ah-ha!
26:25Ah-ha!
26:25Ah-ha!
26:27Ah-ha!
26:28Let's go!
26:28No, Mom.
26:29We're not scraping.
26:30We've got out for dodging in Chlorum.
26:36Long story.
26:38What now?
26:39We could leave my vatic cluster bites.
26:41Strax.
26:41Oh, thick trenches and fill them with acid.
26:43Strax!
26:43You're over-excited.
26:45Have you been eating this jelly Sherbert fancies again?
26:50No.
26:50Go outside and wait for me until I call for you.
26:52Don't matter!
26:53Go!
26:56I'm gonna go.
26:57I'm gonna go play with my grenades.
27:00Okay.
27:01I think she's about done.
27:07I know who you think she is, but she isn't.
27:10She can't be.
27:11I was right then.
27:13You and Clara have unfinished business.
27:16Hey.
27:18Hey.
27:19Hello, stranger.
27:20Hmm.
27:22Doctor.
27:22Yeah.
27:23Ah-ha.
27:25Hi.
27:29What's going on?
27:31Oh.
27:32I have a new ad love.
27:33There's trouble with Mel.
27:36She's a lizard.
27:40My people once ruled this world, as well you know.
27:43But we did not rule it alone.
27:44Just as humanity fights a daily battle against nature, so did we.
27:48And our greatest plague, the most virulent enemy, was the repulsive red leech.
27:54Ooh.
27:54The repulsive red leech.
27:57Now, Balance, I think I prefer the Crimson Horror.
27:59What was it exactly?
28:00A tiny parasite.
28:01It infected our drinking water.
28:02Once in our systems, it secreted a fatal poison.
28:05It's been hanging around, lurking in the shadows.
28:09Maybe it's solved.
28:12Maybe it's happy health.
28:14Doctor, I've been thinking.
28:15The chimney...
28:16Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
28:17Way past that now.
28:18Yucky red parasite from the time of the dinosaurs pitches up in Victorian Yorkshire.
28:22Didn't see that one coming.
28:23Yeah, but the chimney...
28:23Yeah, but what's the connection to Mrs. Gilliflower?
28:25Judgment will rain down on us all.
28:32Empty mill.
28:35A chimney.
28:36That doesn't blow smoke.
28:41Clever clogs.
28:43Is it?
28:43Yeah, clogs.
28:51She's going to poison the air.
28:54How?
29:05The way of that.
29:06As you think.
29:10And there's the poison.
29:13All right, gang.
29:15I've got a plan.
29:23Okay.
29:29Okay.
29:56Who is that?
29:57Who is that?
30:09You, it's you, my monster, you've come back, but you're born and alive.
30:16Thanks to you, Ada, you saved me from your mother's human rubbish tip.
30:21Now, hey, what's wrong?
30:24She does not want me, monster.
30:27I am not to be chosen.
30:30Perhaps it was my own sin, the blackness in my heart that my father saw in me.
30:35Ada, no.
30:36That's nonsense, stupid, backwards nonsense, and you know it.
30:42You know it.
30:48What is it?
30:49Who is that?
30:51I'm...
30:53I'm a friend.
30:55A friend of his.
30:57Then you are fortunate indeed.
31:00It isn't good to be alone.
31:03Now, Ada, I need you to tell me something.
31:08Who is Mr. Sweet?
31:10I know.
31:12Ada.
31:12Now?
31:13Oh, dear monster.
31:15Please.
31:16I cannot.
31:16Even now, I cannot.
31:18I cannot betray my mom.
31:24Well, come with us then.
31:28There's something you need to know.
31:47Oh, you do seem to keep turning up like a bad penny, young man.
31:52Force of habit.
31:53Can I offer you something?
31:55Tea?
31:55Seed cake?
31:56Oh!
31:57A glass of amontillado.
31:59No, thanks.
32:00We've had a skimful already, as you might say.
32:02Very funny.
32:03Yes, I'm the doctor, you're nuts, and I'm going to stop you.
32:07I'm afraid, Mr. Sweetener, I cannot allow.
32:10Ah, yes.
32:11Would it be impolite to ask why you and Mr. Sweet are petrifying your workforce with diluted prehistoric leech venom?
32:17So when do we get to meet him?
32:19This silent partner of yours, why is he so shy?
32:21Mr. Sweet is always with us.
32:24But you seem to have a very close relationship, you and your pal.
32:27Oh, yes, doctor.
32:29Exceedingly close.
32:32Symbiotic, you might say.
32:50Doctor.
32:52What is he?
32:53A survivor.
32:54He has grown fat on the filth humanity has pumped into the rivers.
32:59That's where I found him.
33:01Very enterprising.
33:02His needs are simple.
33:03And in return, he gives me his nectar.
33:05Mrs. Gooderflower.
33:08You have no idea what you are dealing with in the wrong hands.
33:12That venom could wipe out all life on this planet.
33:15Do you know what these are?
33:19The wrong hands.
33:37Planning a little fireworks party, are we?
33:39You have forced me to advance the great work somewhat, doctor.
33:43But my colossal scheme remains as it was.
33:47My rocket will explode high in the atmosphere, raining down Mr. Sweet Beneficence onto all humanity.
33:54And wiping is all out.
33:56You can't!
33:56My new Adam and Eve will sleep but for a few months.
34:00Before stepping out into a golden dawn, is it not, beautiful doctor?
34:08Now, tell us about Ada, Mrs. Gooderflower.
34:12What?
34:13Your daughter.
34:13You do remember your daughter.
34:15Tell us about your daughter.
34:17How can you speak of such trivia when my hour is at hand?
34:21The child is of no consequence.
34:22Is that why you experimented on her?
34:25Experimented.
34:26The signs are all there.
34:27The pattern of scarring.
34:28You used her as a guinea pig, didn't you?
34:32God.
34:32Sometimes sacrifices must be made.
34:38Sacrifices?
34:39It's unnecessary.
34:40I had to find out how much of the venom would produce an anti-toxin to immunize myself,
34:46don't you see?
34:46It was necessary.
34:48Mama, is it...
34:51Is it true?
34:53Ada.
34:54It is.
34:55It's true.
34:57True.
34:58Ada.
34:59Listen to me.
35:00You hag!
35:02You porfidious hag!
35:04You virago!
35:06You harpy!
35:08All these years I have helped you, served you, looked after you, does it come for nothing?
35:13Nothing at all!
35:15Stop!
35:16Stop!
35:17Oh!
35:19Hang on!
35:20Hang on!
35:20I've got a sonic screwdriver.
35:21Yeah?
35:22Chair.
35:28Yeah.
35:30That worked.
35:32I'm afraid your rocket isn't going anywhere, Mrs. G.
35:51Please, come to me, Ada.
35:57Oh!
35:59Oh!
36:00My child!
36:01You have always been so very...
36:05..very...
36:07Useful.
36:08No, Mrs. Gilderflower.
36:10Please, Mama, no more. No more.
36:13And now, if you will forgive us, we must be going.
36:17It is long past Ada's bedtime.
36:23If you follow straight after us, she'll shoot Ada on the spot.
36:26She wouldn't.
36:27She would.
36:31Chairs are useful.
36:36All right, Ada.
36:38Don't leave with my dogs.
36:40Has the venom been loaded?
36:42Yes, Ma'am.
36:43Then have them await you.
37:06Stop!
37:12Just let her go, Mrs. Gilderflower. Let Ada go.
37:16Secondary firing mechanism, Doctor.
37:18If Mr. Sweet and I were too smart for you, after all...
37:21Just let your daughter go, Mrs. Gilderflower.
37:25No!
37:28No!
37:29You can't live with me, Mama.
37:30It is no matter for you, you killed me a long time ago!
37:35Oh, Father!
37:39I'll leave the night, Andy.
37:43We are the fairy.
38:03Now, Mr. Sweet, now the whole world will taste your lethal kiss.
38:10I don't think so, Mrs. Bieleflower.
38:17Oh, very well then.
38:21If I can't take the world with me, you will have to do.
38:26Die, you freaks.
38:29Die!
38:30Die!
38:31Drop down your weapon, human female.
38:58No!
38:59No!
39:00No!
39:01Mr. Sweet, where are you going?
39:06You can't leave me now, Mr. Sweet.
39:11What's it doing?
39:12Well, I know she's dying.
39:13She's no longer of any use to it.
39:15Mr. Sweet!
39:16Oh, Ada.
39:22Ada.
39:26Are you there?
39:29I'm here, my mom.
39:31Forgive me, my time.
39:35Forgive me.
39:40Never.
39:42That's my call.
39:59What will you do with that thing?
40:02Take it back to the Jurassic era, maybe.
40:05Out of harm's way.
40:17On the other hand, it's just that way.
40:22Right.
40:23Right.
40:23Right.
40:23London.
40:24We were heading for London, weren't we?
40:25Was there any particular reason?
40:27No.
40:28No.
40:28Just thought you might like it.
40:32Yeah.
40:33Maybe had enough of Victorian values for a bit.
40:35You're the boss.
40:36Am I?
40:37No.
40:39No.
40:39Get in.
40:43No.
40:46Now, Ada, I'd love to stay and help clear up the mess, but...
40:49I know.
40:49Dear monster, you have things to do.
40:51And what about you?
40:52Oh, there are many things a bright young lady can do to occupy her time.
40:57It's time I stepped out of the darkness and into the light.
41:00Good luck, Ada.
41:02You know, I think you will be just...
41:10Splendid.
41:16Well, thanks a million, you three.
41:19As ever, have some Pontefract cakes on me.
41:22I love Pontefract cakes.
41:24Ha!
41:25See you around, eh?
41:26I shouldn't wonder.
41:28But, Doctor, that girl, Chlora, you haven't explained.
41:43No.
41:44I haven't.
41:49Ah!
41:50Look at the muck in here.
41:52Right.
41:55Another one for the vault.
41:58Ah.
41:59There you are.
42:00I called to see if there had been any progress.
42:05Ah!
42:06No!
42:07No!
42:08No!
42:09No!
42:09No!
42:09No!
42:11No!
42:15No!
42:16No!
42:17The boss.
42:18Yep.
42:19That's me.
42:26I am the boss.
42:42It's you, isn't it?
42:45It's from the 70s, but it's definitely you.
42:48Of course it's not.
42:50And that's you, too.
42:531983.
42:54I found it at school.
42:56No.
42:57That's just someone who looks like me.
42:59And that's someone who looks like your boyfriend.
43:02Is he an alien?
43:03Why would he be an alien?
43:05Well, the chin.
43:06And the time travel.
43:12That's not right.
43:13You're in Victorian London.
43:14No, I was in Victorian Yorkshire.
43:19How come you didn't tell us?
43:20Time travel?
43:20That's so cool.
43:22Can we have a go?
43:23Can you have a what?
43:24We want to shut up the time machine.
43:25No, no, no, no, no.
43:27Listen.
43:28Okay.
43:30Or, we'll have to tell Dad that our nanny's a time traveller.
43:41Hedgewick's World, the biggest and best amusement park there will ever be.
43:46Hey, close down.
43:47Reports of people just vanishing.
43:49Don't need to bury my young friends.
43:51We all know there are no more living Cybermen.
43:53Attack for me!
43:55Just quickly!
43:55Don't wander off.
44:00Take defensive position.
44:06Hail to you, the Doctor!
44:08Savior of the side!
44:39Thank you!
