01:11Oh, that's all right, my dear. It's already set.
01:20Their decision certainly surprised me, although it shouldn't, I know.
01:24But it was quite obvious they intended to take the first opportunity of going back home.
01:29Well, they weren't getting any younger, were they?
01:31It's lucky for you, child, they're not here to hear you say that.
01:35Good gracious me, you think they're old? What do you think of me?
01:37Oh, you're different, Doctor.
01:40Anyway, we may land in their time one day and be able to talk over old times.
01:45Well, perhaps, Vicki. Perhaps.
01:48Anyway, it's done now.
01:55I wonder where the TARDIS will take us next.
01:57Yes, it's done now, although I must admit I'm left with a small worry.
02:01You know, I wouldn't mind New York. I didn't get to see a lot of it, what with the Daleks
02:05and everything.
02:06But what I saw from the top of the Empire State Building, I wouldn't mind going back there.
02:10My dear Vicki, I'm trying to talk to you.
02:12Oh, sorry.
02:12I just wanted to ask you, are you sure you didn't want to go home too?
02:16I didn't give you very much time to consider now, did I?
02:20I should hate to think that you're just staying for the sake of an old man.
02:24Oh, Doctor.
02:25I made my decision. I wanted to stay.
02:30Anyway, I wouldn't have anything to go back to.
02:33Yes, your father was...
02:37Did you hear that?
02:38Yes, perhaps it's something fallen down, or maybe we changed course.
02:46There's someone in the living quarters.
03:00Doctor, be careful. It's obviously a Dalek.
03:28Demon!
03:31Demon!
03:34Demon!
03:35Demon!
03:38Demon!
03:41Stephen!
03:56I wonder.
03:58Oh, I wonder.
04:08Thanks.
04:10Sorry about that, Doc.
04:13We thought you were dead.
04:16I nearly was.
04:17I just managed to climb down that cable before it burned out.
04:20Then I came after you.
04:21You should have shouted.
04:22Should have?
04:23I never stopped.
04:27Say, this is quite a ship you've got here, Doc.
04:31Never seen anything like it.
04:32Now listen to me, young man.
04:34Sit down.
04:38Now, there are two things you can do.
04:41One, sit there until you get your breath back.
04:44And two, don't call me Doc.
04:46Now, do I make myself clear?
04:47Yes, yes.
04:48Whatever you say, Doc.
04:50Talk.
04:51Apart from that young man, I'm quite willing to accept you at your face value.
05:00You were lucky to find the TARDIS in all that jungle.
05:06Yeah.
05:07We were lucky.
05:09You know, I don't seem to remember much about it.
05:11There was a door.
05:13I went through it.
05:14I must have flaked out.
05:15I remember registering that, well, it didn't look like a ship.
05:18It was very small.
05:20I must have been delirious.
05:22I don't suppose you were.
05:23It is very small outside.
05:24It's just in here.
05:25It's big.
05:27Oh, come off it.
05:30You don't believe me, do you?
05:31Oh, of course I do, Vicki.
05:33Every word.
05:34This isn't an ordinary ship, you know.
05:35This is a time machine.
05:38Time machine?
05:39Look, this ship may have a way out design, but time machines, that's ridiculous.
05:45Doctor, he says the TARDIS isn't a time machine.
05:48Oh, does he now?
05:49Tell him.
05:50I don't see why I shoot my child.
05:52You're done.
05:52Soon enough.
05:53Look, Doctor, I've seen some spaceships in my time.
05:55Admittedly, nothing like this.
05:57But what does this do?
05:59That is the dematerializing control, and that over yonder is the horizontal hold.
06:05Up there is the scanner.
06:06Those are the doors.
06:07That is the chair with the pander on it.
06:09Sheer poetry, dear boy.
06:11Now, please stop bothering me.
06:15Look, you gave this ship a name just now.
06:18What was it?
06:19TARDIS.
06:19T-A-R-D-I-S.
06:22It stands for Time and Relative Dimensions in Space.
06:30IDBY.
06:31What?
06:32IDBY?
06:33Hmm.
06:34I-D-B-I.
06:35Yes.
06:36It means I don't believe it.
06:38You'll see.
06:40You'll see.
06:46I've checked up on all the readings.
06:48Now, I think our guests will need a wash and brush up.
06:51So I think the best thing for you to do is to go and find him some clothes and a
06:55cloak.
06:55Bring mine as well.
06:57We'll show him whether this is a time machine or not.
07:00Where are we?
07:01Well, judging by the readings, my child, I think we've landed on the planet Earth.
07:32Woolnoth with you.
07:33Inside.
07:39Something's landed on the beach.
07:40I saw it from the cliff.
07:41What is it?
07:42A large box.
07:43Washed ashore by the tide, probably from a ship.
07:46I didn't go down.
07:46I came for you.
07:47What sort of box?
07:49I don't know.
07:49It's just very big.
07:51I've never seen anything like it before.
07:56Tide will be turning.
07:58We must hurry.
08:00You lead the way.
08:05It's a long way to the beach and back.
08:08What about your meal?
08:16Where did you say you found this, Vicky?
08:18Just down there.
08:20I saw it as soon as I came out of the ship.
08:21Yes, it's a bit rusted, but it's not as old as that.
08:2610th, 11th century.
08:30Hmm.
08:31England.
08:33Hmm.
08:34Hmm.
08:35Well, there you are, young man.
08:37What do you think of that now, eh?
08:38A Viking helmet?
08:39Oh, maybe.
08:40What do you mean, maybe?
08:41What do you think?
08:41It is a space helmet for a cow?
08:43Don't it could just as easily be part of a costume.
08:46You know, a toy left here by a child.
08:47Oh, rubbish, rubbish.
08:48No more so than your theory.
08:50Though your ship is, to say the least, a little unusual.
08:53Oh, I see.
08:54So you've changed your ideas now, haven't you?
08:56If it is a time machine, I'm not saying it is, mind you.
08:58But if it is, shouldn't you know where we are?
09:00You know, your control panel.
09:01Yes, yes, yes.
09:02But unfortunately, we have a slight technical hitch at the moment.
09:06Excuse me.
09:09As a matter of fact, we never know where we're going to land next.
09:14So assuming I believe what you tell me, you can't take me home?
09:17Not by any direct route.
09:23Let's go exploring now, hmm?
09:25Yes, perhaps we can find a village whereby we can convince this young upstart of the true facts.
09:31Oh, great, Doctor.
09:33I'm all for that.
09:34But there is one thing that bothers me.
09:36Oh, yes.
09:36What is it now?
09:37Well, how come you chose such an unusual design for your ship?
09:39A police telephone box?
09:41Is that right?
09:41The design is completely immaterial, young man.
09:45The TARDIS is required to land and blend in with the surroundings.
09:49Blend in?
09:50Yes, quite so.
09:52For instance, if we were to land in the middle of the Indian mutiny, well, I'm sure the ship
09:57could possibly take on the appearance of a howdah.
10:01How what?
10:02A howdah!
10:03A carrier on the back of an elephant.
10:05Oh, I see.
10:06Oh, and if it landed on the pebbles...
10:08On the what?
10:09If it landed on the beach against a cliff, it'd take on the appearance of a large rock?
10:14Yes, yes, yes, yes.
10:15But you do keep on, don't you?
10:16Oh, do you wonder why I don't believe you?
10:18You know, that large rock over there looks exactly like a police telephone box.
10:22That is merely another technical hitch, and the doctor will repair it one day.
10:28Anyway, if we're going to do any exploring, we should do it now, because it's going to get dark
10:31in a minute.
10:40Now, I suggest we take a walk along the beach and try and find a spot where the cliffs run
10:43down to sea level.
10:44Yeah, but that could be miles.
10:45It'd be much quicker to go up here.
10:47Yes, so possibly it might, but I'm not a mountain goat, and I prefer walking to any day, and I
10:51hate climbing.
10:52We'll go with you, Doctor.
10:53No, you won't, but you'll stay with the ship and wait till I've got to the top.
10:56Then you can both climb up and join me.
10:58But, Doctor, do you might get...
10:58I'm not going to argue, my child.
11:00Yes, but...
11:02Oh, hey.
11:02You might try being a bit more tactful in...
11:05Don't you start as well.
11:06Come on, let's go on.
11:07No.
11:07I think we should stay here and wait for him, like the doctor said.
11:10Why?
11:11We've got to go up there sooner or later.
11:13It might as well be sooner.
11:14We can walk along the top and meet...
11:15Say, that bit there looks climbable.
11:18Come on.
11:18I'm not very good on heights.
11:20Oh, come on.
11:21You'll be all right.
11:32Don't you start...
11:41Don't you, Doctor.
11:43Don't you, Doctor.
11:47Oh, come on.
14:08Yes.
14:09It was on the beach below us here.
14:12Are you certain?
14:12Yes, positive.
14:14I remember the way the rocks look.
14:16Pity.
14:17It might have been valuable.
14:18Would have been crushed against the rocks by now, whatever it was.
14:49Oh, what's this?
14:51Mead.
14:52Mead.
14:53Mead.
14:53Oh, mead.
14:54Yes, of course, yes.
14:56Yes, how nice of you.
14:57Yes.
14:58Delightful.
15:00Well, here's to your very good health.
15:05Oh, delightful.
15:08Oh, delightful.
15:10Oh, yes, delightful.
15:14Tell me, is the monastery near here?
15:17No, it's not far from here.
15:19It's just at the top of the hill.
15:21Oh, when the wind's in the right direction, you can hear the monks much clearer, so they're down in the
15:25village.
15:26Oh, yes, yes, yes.
15:26It's quite understandable.
15:28You know, sounds do play funny tricks at times.
15:30I, um...
15:31Hmm?
15:32I hope you will forgive a woman's harsh welcome.
15:35We do fear strangers, but we're very happy to welcome a traveller.
15:40Not that we see many in this wild place.
15:43I'm sure that when my husband returns, he'll assist that you stay the night, and then you can rejoin your
15:48friends in the morning.
15:49Well, that's very kind, very kind indeed, and I do hope they won't worry me, worry about me too much.
15:54You know, I, uh, I hadn't intended to walk quite so far.
15:58You, uh, near the coast, hmm?
16:00Yes.
16:02While there are fish in the sea, one need never starve.
16:05Yes, yes.
16:07Of course, there are bad things, too.
16:10Oh, of course, of course, my dear.
16:11Yes, the, uh, Vikings, for example.
16:14Not that we see much of them this year, except for that one raid that was beaten off just north
16:19of here.
16:19Yes, I had heard about that battle.
16:21Yes, yes, the, the king, uh, greatly improved the position, uh, no end.
16:26The king?
16:28Harold Godwinson.
16:28Hmm?
16:30We'll receive no help from him.
16:32You know, uh, it seems like yesterday that the, uh, good king Edward was laid to rest.
16:40Uh, uh, when, when was it?
16:42Well, it's the beginning of the year.
16:43Oh, of course, yes, yes.
16:44It's the beginning of the year.
16:45Yes, yes, yes.
16:46Hmm, that's silly.
16:47Yes, it's most refreshing.
16:49Hmm.
16:50Oh, I'll get you more.
16:52Oh, thank you.
16:54Yes.
16:54Thank you, my dear.
16:58Now, if Harold is king, and Edward was laid to rest at the beginning of the year, then
17:04it must be 1066.
17:07Ha, ha, ha.
17:08Ha, ha, ha.
17:10Ha, ha.
17:12Judging by the appearance of these leaves, late summer, hmm, and a balmy night, a balmy
17:17night.
17:18Oh, thank you, my dear.
17:23Uh, you know, it's a bit stupid of me, but, uh, we are in, uh, Northumbria.
17:28Hmm?
17:28Yes, of course we are.
17:29Why do you ask?
17:30Oh, nothing, nothing.
17:31I, I, just that I wasn't sure whether I'd crossed the border or not.
17:34Yes, it's a bit tedious of me, isn't it?
17:36Yes, but you must have patience with an old man.
17:39Oh, please, sit down and rest before the fire.
17:43You must be tired after your journey.
17:47Forgive me, I have things to do before we'll not return.
17:51I will, I will, and thank you, indeed, thank you.
17:56Yes, it's a great pity that Barbara isn't here.
18:00Now, if my memory of English history serves me right,
18:04we're about to have a Viking invasion, and very soon.
18:08Now, let me think, uh, Harold came north to defeat Hadrada, the Norwegian king.
18:14Yes, now, that was before he faced William the Conqueror at Hastings.
18:19Hmm, hmm, it's all very interesting.
18:21Yes, that's very, very, very, very interesting.
18:23Hmm, hmm.
18:24He's going to put that young man in his place.
18:52Woman, woman, where are you?
18:53Hmm?
18:54Uh, what?
18:55What is it?
18:56The monastery, where is it, did you say?
18:57Well, at the top of the hill.
18:59Why?
18:59What's there?
19:00And the monks, uh, have they been here long?
19:02Hmm?
19:02No.
19:03The monastery itself's been deserted for years and years,
19:06and then seven weeks ago, a few monks must have moved back in.
19:09And you haven't seen them?
19:11Uh, no one in the village has?
19:12Hmm?
19:12One's been seen, but never spoken to.
19:16How does he know that?
19:17Oh, you've been very kind, and, uh, a great help, yes.
19:20I'm sorry, but, uh, I must take your, my leave of you.
19:23Are you going to the monastery?
19:25I most certainly am.
19:28Hmm, hmm.
19:46Look, are you coming?
19:48Can't we rest a minute?
19:50We just did.
19:51Oh, well, I'm tired.
19:54Oh.
19:57Well, we'll wait a little while.
20:00But we're lost.
20:01We can't stay here all night.
20:03Shh.
20:04What's the matter?
20:05I think somebody's coming.
20:09Why are we hiding?
20:10We can ask him the way.
20:11No.
20:11Because I think we should follow him until we find out whether it's safe or not.
20:15Oh.
20:17Supposing you do what I say for once.
20:38He's found something.
20:40What is it?
20:41I can't see.
20:44Did you drop something?
20:47Hey.
20:48Here.
20:49Hey, come back.
20:51Stephen.
20:55Stephen.
20:56Stephen, I...
20:56Leave him alone.
20:58Stop it.
20:59Stop it, Stephen.
21:01Stephen.
21:02Oh.
21:07Oh.
21:08Oh.
21:09Oh.
21:10Oh.
21:16You all right?
21:17Hmm?
21:18Yes, I think so.
21:20I got it.
21:21What was it?
21:26You still say this is 10th century England?
21:38Hmm.
21:39Yes.
21:48Oh.
