Here we go again.

[music]

A police box that [music] fell from

space. That's a new one.

What are we supposed to do [music] with

it?

Xbox.

>> Have I crashed?

>> Sir, step out of the box.

>> The military.

21st century.

[clears throat]

Oh dear me. This is bad. I was escaping

from a really quite horrific civil war.

>> That should have stopped.

>> Half an hour ago. I had sideburns.

Magnificent ones.

I was a completely different man.

Nobody fires.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Change of plan. We're taking the box in

as well. [music] Get me a lift crew now.

>> Orders came down from the minister of

state himself. [music] He's going to

site 47.

The deep.

>> Whoever he is, he must be pretty

dangerous.

[music]

[music]

>> [music]

>> Hey,

No,

no, no, no, no.

I'm coming.

Hold on. I'm coming.

Thank you.

[music]

[music]

>> [music]

[music]

>> Heat. Heat.

[music]

Last time you saw him

half nine putting the covers on the

traps. I told him to leave it till the

morning

and you never heard him come in.

He's at his pal Dean's half the week.

You go to bed and [music] you don't

think about it.

He had football this morning. Sandy Watt

phoned the house looking for him.

And Jeanie says, "Well, [music] he slept

in."

The pair of us standing in the kitchen

given off about him. And he'd been in

that water all night.

>> [music]

>> That's it. Done.

They'll find him.

>> They won't.

>> Sarge, with the tide the way it is,

>> lass. In 190 years, this village has

never once got a body back out of that

water. Not one.

Not my own uncle.

We'll do the search because we do the

search and you won't say a word of that

where they can hear you.

211,6042.

Happy birthday

It's not my birthday.

No.

How long have you [music] been here?

A year. H. You come in, you ask about

the box,

you go away for a month, you come back

12 times.

a month.

It's been every hour for me.

You, sir, have been [music] here for

exactly a year.

But beyond these walls, it's been merely

a night.

That's not possible. And yet, here we

are. And there's cake.

What is this place?

the deep.

You're inside site 47.

That's not an answer.

>> It's the only one that matters.

Now

your blue box.

Do you know what [music] we detected?

Energy. An ocean of it. More than this

country has burned in a century. [music]

I don't care what you are. I don't care

where you came from.

Nobody in this building [music] does.

There are weeks of power left in this

country. When it goes, the lights go,

then the hospitals,

then everything [music] else.

[music]

I've tried everything to get into that

box.

Every time I torch it, it heals itself.

You're going to tell me how to open it?

>> I don't remember.

[music]

>> Let's jog your memory then, shall we?

>> Please,

not again.

I don't remember. Well, we'll help you

remember.

>> I don't remember.

>> Morning, Peggy. Hi. Morning,

>> Lucy.

He's 19. Hugh.

>> I know how old he is.

>> Give your mother my love.

>> Won't

>> tell her I've still got her cardigan.

>> She'd have the legs off you.

>> She would as well.

>> How's the catch this morning?

>> I

I

You'll never guess who I've just seen.

>> Surprise me.

>> Hugh Tate [music]

down the front asking after you.

[music] Was he?

>> He went pink. Mom. 62 years old and he

went pink.

>> I've told that man countless times he's

not getting a second date.

I'm just that irresistible.

>> I'll wait and shave your legs then.

>> Terrible.

That poor woman.

I know.

How's your morning been, Mary? Ah, you

know.

[music]

>> Oh, they're back at it.

Hadings 240.

Every time, every single time somebody

goes in that water,

>> Mary.

>> And they'll all be down that harbor

tomorrow with their faces on.

Isn't it awful? What a shock.

>> It's never once been a shock. There's

not a soul in this village doesn't know

nothing washes up [music] at Kilmer. Not

ever. Not in my time, nor my mother's.

Then why does nobody say it?

>> Because of them.

>> Who?

>> Site 47. Up on the point. You don't talk

about the water. Not in the shop. Not in

the pub. Not on the phone.

They listen.

>> Mary, that's the Ministry of Defense.

It's not

>> It's a fence and a gate and men that

aren't from here.

This place is cursed. Everybody knows,

nobody says

[snorts]

that poor woman though, her son. How do

you come back from that?

You don't.

They'll tell [music] her it gets easier.

>> It gets quieter.

And then somebody else's boy goes in and

it's the same morning all over again.

>> Mom, don't

Sinclair daughters.

You never changed [music] the sign, did

you?

240.

Get the crate through the back.

Good morning. Site 47 is switching to

day mode.

Keep trying, little man.

Morning,

Ver.

>> Good morning, Jason. Did they win?

>> 2-0 to them.

>> Oh, that is very poor. It's a rebuilding

year, Jason. It has been [music] a

rebuilding year for 4 years.

How's your neighbor?

>> A rough night, I'm afraid. Best to leave

him to it today. Until tomorrow, Jason.

See you then, lad.

Neighbor,

you don't have to talk. Knock once so I

know you're upright.

>> Good. That'll do. [sighs]

They took you to the dark room to

interrogate. No doubt.

>> Vark H.

>> Not now.

>> All right.

When they brought you in, I asked Jason

if I could keep you.

>> You what? The cell was empty a long

time. The one before you never spoke.

And then they carried you past my hatch,

all burnt with your hair on end. And I

thought, "Oh, I hope that one's for next

door." And Jason said, "Ver, he's not a

hamster."

>> He's right. I'm not a hamster.

>> I know that now.

>> I looked after you though, the first

weeks. You talked in your sleep and I

answered. So the sleep had somebody in

it. I'd say that makes you mine. My kept

thing.

A pet.

Is that wrong?

I was thinking friend. Really?

[sighs and gasps]

friend

if you want to be.

I had those once, I think.

>> How did you get here, Ver?

>> Which here? [music]

>> Earth. Start with Earth.

We were coming down for the quiet.

The [music] quiet. There's a slow place

under this coast. You can feel it from a

long way out, like deep water.

Time feels [music] slow here. My people

were old and tired, and the ship was

tired. And [music] somebody said,

"There, we'll rest there. A hundred

years in the slow and we'd be mended.

>> And did you rest

>> for a while?

We came down and there was nobody,

just the sea and the birds and a hill.

>> And then the humans came.

>> There's pic.

>> They had weapons and they were [music]

frightened.

And frightened is the worst thing a

human can be.

All my

friends.

All my [music] friends died,

but now you're my friend, [music]

neighbor,

and that makes [music] me happy.

[snorts]

a friend.

You're my friend, too, Sparky.

I said [music] too much in there to your

mother.

You're all [music] right.

My memories away, Hen. I'm sorry for it.

My sister's body was never found.

[music] There's a stone in the cemetery

with her name on it and nothing

underneath it.

I want to know what happened to her.

Then go and look at the old headlines.

All of them. Not the ones you've got.

>> It's been in black and white 190 years,

and there's not a soul ever put them

side by side.

>> Lucy, to what do I owe the pleasure?

>> She's not giving you a second date,

Hugh. I'm here for something else.

>> I need your old newspaper cutings.

Anything on bodies?

>> Sorry, what?

>> Oi, I'm serious. Anyone lost at sea?

Anything about their bodies?

>> You really shouldn't be asking about

these things in broad daylight.

>> You keep those in the kitchen.

>> Where else would I keep them?

>> [snorts]

>> What's it for?

[music]

>> [music]

[music]

>> Ah,

>> [music]

>> She was right.

[sighs] Right. And what exactly is the

plan here, Lucy?

Speech. Speech. Speech.

[sighs]

[gasps]

>> [snorts]

>> What am I doing? This is crazy stuff.

[music]

Jesus.

You know, I think that might just have

been the most pathetic attempt at a

break-in I think I've ever seen.

>> I knew this was a bad idea.

You did, and you came anyway.

So, Lucy Sinclair, [music]

>> how do you know my name?

>> I've known your name since you turned

off the road. You aren't the first to

come snooping around here.

>> 200 years of folk going into that water.

Not one body ever came back up. Not one.

Where are they? Tell me, how long do you

think you've been sitting in that chair?

>> 10 minutes. 15.

>> Since you sat down in that chair, the

morning has come for the outside.

Here, it barely crawls. The deeper you

[music] go, the slower time moves for

you and the faster it accelerates for

everyone outside. which is how [music]

we extract as much scientific research

as possible from our other residents.

>> Residents,

>> that is the word we use. There's

something else right at the bottom of

this facility.

>> A monster

living in [music] the water.

And it does one beautiful thing. It

slows time. Eating bodies is just a side

effect.

>> You're joking. We built every [music]

inch of this around it.

The first resident of site 47.

>> Maybe I should go.

>> Go,

my dear.

Why do you think I've told you so much?

You're our newest resident.

Oh my god.

When he said residents, [music] I

thought prisoners or failed politicians.

I didn't think

aliens.

>> Yeah, you get used to [music] them.

>> You're the first human in here, though.

>> What about him?

>> He's not human.

Please let me out.

>> You seem nice.

I have a student loan.

>> You what?

>> And this job pays well. Sorry.

>> I very good. Enjoy the interest.

You're joking.

Hello. There's nothing in here.

There's a hole in the floor and a light

I can't reach. Where am I supposed to go

to the toilet?

What about my human rights?

>> I shouldn't worry.

>> Who said that?

>> Two along on your left. Do forgive the

intrusion.

>> I'm sorry. What?

I said [music] I shouldn't worry about

the biology.

>> The biology [music]

>> time is peculiar in here. Certain

[music] functions rather lose interest.

One doesn't get hungry, one doesn't get

tired and one very rarely needs the

facilities. It takes some adjusting to.

I found it liberating in the end.

>> Right.

I'm having a conversation through a wall

about my bladder with something that

isn't a person.

>> I can hear you.

>> I I know.

This is what you get.

This is exactly what you get for being

nosy.

>> Curious Lucy. That's what they call it

when it's going well. Nosy is when you

end up on a Thursday night.

>> It's Friday.

>> Are you all right?

>> Am I all right?

>> It's a fair question.

I'm sat on the floor of an empty room

under a hill talking to a wall and the

wall's got opinions.

>> That's not a no.

>> It's not a yes.

>> Nobody in here gets a yes.

[gasps]

[panting]

>> What was that?

>> That's Sparky. [gasps and sighs]

>> Sparky.

>> Opposite. We thing eyes like dinner

plates.

>> He's saying hello. He's saying feed me.

>> Here you

>> me.

>> You're Scottish.

>> Am I?

>> You just said we

>> I did I

>> there again. That's two.

>> I hadn't noticed.

>> How do you not notice you're Scottish?

It's not a thing that creeps up on you.

>> It's been a strange year.

>> What's your name?

>> That's the easy one. That's the one they

teach you first.

>> I know.

I don't have it.

You don't have your name.

>> I had it. It's away somewhere. There's a

lot of me away somewhere.

>> They take him up to the dark room.

>> Ver.

They've been at him about his ship. They

want the doors open and he won't give

them it. So, they put him in a chair.

>> Ver.

She ought to know what sort of place

she's walked into.

How long have they had you?

>> You said a year.

>> It's fine.

>> It's not.

>> It's honestly fine. I've been

>> Don't do that.

Don't make it we [music] so I don't have

to feel bad.

>> My mother does that. It's dead annoying.

All right.

>> Right.

>> Thanks.

>> You're welcome.

>> So, what does a fishmander want with a

defense site?

>> How do you know I'm a fishmander?

>> Everything about [music] you.

>> Fear.

my sister.

Go on.

[music]

She was seven. We were twins.

We were playing, [music]

just playing the way kids do.

And she fell

into the water.

The water was rough that day.

[sighs]

They never got her back.

Nobody in that village has ever got a

body back out of that water. [music] Not

once.

And I've heard there's a monster down

here

underneath us.

Eating them.

>> Hi.

There is

>> right at the bottom below the last

level.

None of the guards [music] have been

down there.

[sighs]

>> Mr. Green won't go down there either.

The man upstairs runs the whole place.

He's frightened of it.

Everybody is.

I've hauled things out that sea that

would [music] turn your stomach.

Things with their eyes on the wrong

side.

Things with teeth all the way back.

Things that [music] should I swim at

all?

[music] Monsters don't scare me.

[gasps]

>> So, how do we get out?

>> We don't.

>> No, we get out. That's the [music] plan.

I'll do the details

>> with what?

>> I don't know yet.

I've still got my phone.

>> Why haven't they [music] taken that off

you?

>> No signal. Of course there's no signal.

We're under a hill.

Satellite.

>> What?

>> Emergency. [music] It's for when you're

up a hill and you've broken your leg. It

doesn't need a man. It needs sky.

>> It will take hours [music] to find

anything at this depth.

>> Slow in here, fast out there.

That we signal's got all the time in the

world to find a sky.

>> My car sat on a veg 200 yd from their

gate. [music] My mother will have called

Hugh by now and Hugh knows fine where I

went.

>> Half the village at that gate

and the rescue helicopters behind them.

>> And what happens to a secret place with

helicopters at the gate?

It stops being secret.

>> Hi,

[music]

Mr. Green. There's a search crew outside

the gate.

>> What?

>> Where an emergency satellite distress

call was logged in the early hours. That

signal [music] was traced to a position

roughly 30 m beneath the ground on which

we're standing.

>> This facility does [music] not exist.

Nothing in this building can be exposed.

Nothing.

Get that box off my floor. Lower it now.

>> Down where?

>> To the bottom.

>> Right to the bottom.

>> What about the residence, Mr. Green? If

this gets out,

>> the self-destruct sequence has been

initiated.

>> What's going on? What is going on?

>> That bit I didn't think of. [music]

Think, think, think. I knew this. I knew

how to do this.

Come on. Who am I? Who am I? Who am I?

Who am I? Who am I? Who am I? Who am I?

[music]

I remember who I am.

[music]

Sparky,

[music]

I need you excited.

>> As excited as you have ever been in your

entire life, pal. France. [screaming]

>> [music]

>> Why are they going up?

Right. We've got to jump.

>> Jump.

I'm not jumping. Are you mad?

>> Slower at the bottom. That means [music]

a padded landing.

That's right, Burke.

[music]

Ready?

No.

[music]

Glass half full. Worthy.

Fine. Fine.

[music]

>> [screaming]

>> Feather,

I'll kill you.

[groaning]

Hello.

>> Are you not cold?

>> Malkey.

>> Hi.

>> Malkey. Dan it. [music]

>> Do I know you?

>> You

>> I'm What?

>> Your mother's on the harbor.

>> I I'll see her in a bit.

Right.

I see it.

What are you scared of?

That's him that pulled me out.

I went in off the boat. I was away and

he come and got me. He gets everybody.

Can you [music] hear me?

I know you can say something.

I

rescue

them from the water.

>> That's a man's voice.

>> Hi.

I'm the doctor.

That's what I do. I turn up where it's

gone wrong and I try to mend [music] it.

I think you and I are in the same line

of work.

I need to see. It'll take a [music]

second and it won't hurt. May I?

He was a rescuer. He rescued [music]

hundreds of people at sea.

What is it?

It's a machine.

>> Or it was a rescue unit built [music] to

find people in trouble and get them out.

And then a man drowned on top of it. A

rescuer.

Ver. Your ship.

How much of it went down?

All of it.

Then that's yours.

We had one on [music] every deck.

And this one survived.

>> So it saves them.

>> It brings them here.

It can't undo drowning. Nothing can.

So it did the only thing it had left. It

stopped the clock. It built a room where

nothing moves on. And it's been carrying

people [music] into it ever since.

>> That's why the time's wrong in the whole

building.

>> The building's the edge of it. This is

the middle. The levels, the labs, the

year they took off me. That's just

spill.

>> Everyone that never came back.

>> Everyone.

[sighs and gasps]

everyone.

>> Lucy,

she was seven.

>> Lucy,

is that you?

>> Naty.

You're big.

>> I

You're really big.

>> I know.

>> Is mom old?

>> She'd batter you.

>> I

did. Did you get the dog?

>> No.

>> You said You said when we were big we'd

get one and call it Bruce.

I know. I said

[snorts]

I looked for you

every day.

31 years.

>> I know. He tells us. He says [music]

everybody's looking and everybody's

fine.

He's awful kind. He's awful [music]

kind.

>> I'm awful tired. But

>> we're all awful tired.

Oh, that's not good. What is it?

The explosion [music] is starting to

come through

and the field's contracting. It's

pulling in.

Time is [music] breaking around us.

You're holding it off. You've been

holding it off since the moment it

started.

Thank you.

I mean it.

190 years on your [music] own in the

dark and you never once stopped going

out.

>> Of course you're fredonizing with the

monster.

>> Do you [music] know what you've cost

this country?

There's a power source [music] in that

box that would have kept the lights on

forever.

No oil, no blackouts. I could have

handed this [music] nation a 100red

years

and you sat in a chair and let me ask

blackouts.

>> The grid is [music] on its knees.

>> Was

that thing on your wrist? It isn't only

[music] keeping you alive in here. It's

been holding your body clock still since

the day you put it on. When did you

[music] start? 1962 63.

>> Your [music] office.

You have a telly in there with a dial on

it. A phone with a cord.

>> He's not a hoarder.

He's just never left.

The country's fine. [music] They fixed

it decades back.

No,

you've been down a hole saving a Britain

that stopped needing it a very long time

ago.

Look at them

degenerate things creeping in off the

sea into [music] a decent country. And

we house them and we feed them and we

learn nothing.

You're not fit for creation. Any of you

[screaming]

Come here. Come on.

No. No. No. Hold on,

>> friend.

Don't. I've had 311 years.

>> That's not enough.

>> There's nothing here. There's no

equipment. There's nothing to

Oh,

>> what? A year ago in [music] a field, I

was in the middle of changing and they

put a mask on me and stopped it. And

then they put [music] me in a room where

nothing moves on. It never finished. I'm

full of it. Not mad. I [music] am

absolutely full of it.

Lucy,

you ask me how we get out. We don't. Not

all of us. Not usually.

There's rules about this. [music]

Very good rules. And I've kept them my

whole life. And I have watched an awful

lot of people go because of them.

>> But every once in a very long while, if

you're standing [music] exactly the

right room at exactly the right second,

>> doctor,

>> you get to break one.

>> [music]

>> Everyone, whoever went missing in that

water,

I'm bringing them back home.

What about the others?

The other aliens,

Ver, Sparky,

>> took them home.

[music]

>> And as for those two, I have a feeling

we'll see them about you.

>> Rescue.

[music]

>> You really are a wonderful man, doctor.

You know that the healer of humanity,

[music]

>> mommy.

>> [music]

>> Oh,

[laughter]

I'm never going to [music] be able to

explain it to her properly.

>> The world can't ever know what happened

here in Kilmer.

>> I know

>> your twin sister [music] is now decades

younger than you.

>> It's been a week and I still can't get

used to it.

>> Sometimes miracles can happen.

You're here, aren't you?

>> Can I go inside?

This box can travel anywhere you like.

All time and space.

>> Stop. No. What?

>> It's bigger on the inside.

>> It's called the TARDIS.

>> Doctor, I I know you're an alien, so I

was told. But start from the beginning.

[music] The very beginning.

Where are you from?

[music]

[music]

Come

on.
