(DOCTOR WHO THEME)
The Doctor and Susan are still in that sink, and he's turned the tap on!
Quickly Susan, into the overflow pipe!
They've put the plug back in again.
Oh at least we're safe here.
Yeah. If they fill that sink with any more water...
Yes of course! It'll come in here, down the overflow pipe!
Exactly!
I'm getting used to these sounds. I think that last one must have been the door closing.
Are you sure they have gone?
I'm not sure of anything Barbara.
Ian, the Doctor and Susan, they must have been drowned.
We don't know. We must go and find out.
Stay up there if you want to.
No I'm coming with you.
Alright.
Hey, you go on.
Anything?
No. Too dark to see.
I'm afraid there's not much hope Barbara.
What do we do? I mean, that's it, what can we do?
Knew they'd be alright Grandfather!
Susan!
I don't believe it!
There we are you see, my friends. You can't get rid of us as easily as all that, eh!
Yeah...there we are. The report is ready.
Alright. Well what are you doing now?
The report itself isn't final enough, Farrow would have telephoned it in to his department.
But you can't do that! You'll give yourself away! They'll know it isn't him speaking!
You leave this side of it to me.
Stranger operator here. Hello? Yes. London, yes... Whitehall. W-H-I. Yeah.
...Eight-seven. Thank you.
How do you know who to speak to?
I've been dealing with these people for years.
Three-eight-seven? Yes, hold on, I've a call for you. Go ahead please.
Hello is Mr Whitmore there please? Arnold Farrow speaking. Yes. Oh hello, how are you? Good, I'll hold on.
The secretary asked me how I was. Told you it would be alright!
Doesn't sound like Mr Farrow at all!
The tests are very satisfactory, I'm sending in my report. Hah-ha, yes it is a bad line isn't it?
Well... I would say that DN6 as they call it is about a sixty percent improvement on normal insecticide.
Yes, I know I'm not usually so enthusiastic, but this is really extraordinary! Mm, crossing over to France tonight.
And I'll send in the report, will you send in the authorisation?
Good, I'll tell Forester. Yes, goodbye.
Well?
Perfect. As soon as they get the r-report, we'll get the go ahead.
Certainly wasn't here before.
Half drawing and half writing. Ian it's a formula!
Yes, I believe you're right Susan!
Do you think it's the formula to the insecticide, Doctor?
Perhaps.
Well if it is it can tell us what we're fighting against, we might even find a cure.
A cure?! What's the good of that?
I dunno...
Well neither do I, if we're going to do anything at all we must stop it!
Yes, Ian's right, Barbara. You only need a cure if someone's infected, what we've got to do it to stop it being produced.
Yes alright!
Well I think we should take a closer look at this oversized document, the more we know about the enemy, the better.
Well those things up there are definitely molecular structures.
Yes you're quite right, my boy. I only wish I could see it more with a whole...
Well couldn't we, ah, lever it up in some way, stand back and have a look at it?
Mm-mm
Yes, it would be like a huge advertising poster wouldn't it?
I'm afraid it's far too heavy, we'd never lift it.
Let me have the notebook, child. No, we shall have to make a map of this.
Now Chesterton, you start marking off a section with your feet, will you?
Yeah.
And Susan and Barbara, I want you to call out to me what you see written beneath you.
Yes, yes. This is the insecticide quite clearly. A bit rough of course, but it tells us the story.
Yeah. I'm not very well up in this Doctor, but, er, isn't that phosphoric acid?
Now this indicates the amount of organic esters...
Yeah, and this is mineral nitrates...
Mm-mm
And... Ah, that's about as far as I go I'm afraid.
My dear boy this formula's quite clear look, with one vital difference. The inventor has made the insecticide everlasting!
That means it would seep into the soil.
Get into the drinking water.
Er, what about human beings?
Well given sufficient quantity of course it's capable of killing human beings.
Yes, if-if they drink and eat infected food and water.
Yes, or even coming in contact with it.
Penetrating the skin to get into the bloodstream.
Oh then why do we go on just sitting..!
Now, now, now, my dear. Gently, gently.
I'm sorry.
Barbara, are you alright?
Yes, I-I feel a bit giddy. I-I think I must be hungry.
Now there's another point to consider my dear boy, eating - we can't! Even if we do find food here.
Yes, well, the less we talk about food the more I'll like it.
We can go back to the sink of course, the water in the tap is quite safe.
Well, there's no need for all of us to go. I'll go and fetch some.
Ah, but I want to go into that direction. You see, there's something over there that might be the solution to all this business.
Oh what's that?
A telephone, my dear, mm?
Ah. Come on then, let's go.
Mm, it's climbable.
Yes. The thing is my boy, how heavy is that receiver mm?
Mm.
Yes, there are..there are, there are lots more over there.
Hey, are you alright?
Yes, I'm fine. I told you, I haven't eaten for ages, I-I think that's what it must be. Don't make a fuss!
Well Susan, ah, you and I will do the climbing, eh?
Yes alright.
Ah, Doctor?
Pass this up to Susan, and she can then pass it on up to me.
Very well.
Right, I'll get started.
Can you manage alright?
Yes, I can make it.
Oh, er, oh Barbara, would you mind bringing another one of these, please?
Ah, thanks my dear. You look very tired.
Yes I am a bit.
Well we can manage. You just sit down and rest for a while, mm?
Right you'd better all come up now.
COMING! Grandfather! Barbara!
Do you think er, we three could manage eh?
Why?
Well, I don't think Barbara's quite up to it.
Oh alright, well we can try.
It's alright, I'm here.
Ah good. Now listen Susan, we're going to try and lift this end.
Mm-hm.
Now you, when we get it lifted up, push this cork underneath.
Now, you ready?
IAN: Barbara? BARBARA: Yes
Right, now, lift!
Ah
Oh!
Quickly!
Oh goodness!
We'll try the other end now. Now we...
Uh.. There, there we are! Same thing Susan.
Uh, thank you, thank...
Ready now? Lift!
Uh! Oh. We did it!
Hilda! Come and answer this thing, it's driving me mad!
It's the old farmhouse again.
Hello? Ah... What number do you want?
CAN YOU HEAR US?!!
WOORRRRLLLLLL...WHHA..WORRLLLWHAAA....?
PUT US THROUGH TO POLICE!!
Any luck?
No... No nothing at all.
We can't have failed after having tried so hard!
Yes I'm afraid that we have, and it's my fault. I thought it was worth trying!
Well we must try again!
Ahh
Oh Ian, I don't think It'll do any good.
Well we must try, we must try! I'll go and tell Barbara.
You been over doing things.
Yes... Yes, I-I think I have.
I'll go and get you some water it'll freshen you up, eh?
Thank you
What are you doing?
I want your handkerchief. I was going to...
No!
What's the matter?
You can't have it, you mustn't touch it!
Barbara!
No-one must touch...
Barbara!
There, it's the same aroma! Insecticide. You didn't eat or drink anything?
Well no, certainly not!
Shes got insecticide on her hands, she touched it.
Well she never told me, I never saw her do this! I... She did borrow my handkerchief.
Where were you then?
By that pile of seeds.
Yes you sh, you see, she's got it on her hands! And she rubbed it off on your handkerchief!
Oh... Why didn't she tell us?!
You can help her can't you Doctor?
Grandfather we can do something can't we?
What happened? D-did I..?
You fainted, that's all.
The insecticide... Is that why I feel like this?
Yes. You got some of it on your hands and you didn't us tell anything about it! It was very wrong of you wasn't it?
Am I... Am I?
No-no-no, no this little attack...experience is only temporary.
Oh take it easy Barbara,
Look out.
Come on Barbara take it easy
Well what can we do for her?
Well it's urgent that we get her back to normal size, but, ah, at the moment her protective cells are too small to cope with the molecules of poison in her bloodstream.
But if we can, that dosage of insecticide will be seventy times less dangerous, practically nothing at all!
Are you sure?
Yes I'm quite sure. But we must get her back to the ship.
What are we waiting for?
How are you feeling?
Ooh..a bit ropey. Ooh, could do with a glass of water.
We're going to take you back to the ship.
Alright, just give me a minute.
Come on Barbara, we've got a long way to go.
You can get us back to normal size?
Oho, yes! of course I can dear boy, yes, course I can...
I hope.
What the devil's wrong with this phone?!
Barbara, you're ill. You've got to let us take you back to the ship. You could die!
Doctor make her see some sense!
There's nothing I can say dear boy. Barbara's quite right.
Susan?
Ian we must find a way to stop this, we must!
Any other phones around here?
Uh? Oh, yes, there's one in the lab next to the sink.
Maybe that's where the trouble is. Perhaps the phone's off the hook or something?
Yes, I'll..I'll go and see.
I want to have a look at Farrow's notes.
Why?
Yeah, that's it, we'll cause trouble! Start a fire, my boy!
Yes... Can we start a big enough one to do any real damage?
Well we can try anyway. Hah-ha, there's nothing like a good fire eh? Ha-ha-ha... Mm, hm-hm.
What do you think Barbara
I think it's a good idea. If we could manage to start a fire it would certainly attract people here.
Yes! They'd might find that man's body!
Gas!
That's it!
What's it?
If we could only turn it on.
Well then what?
I'll soon show you.
W-look out!
Quick, behind this water tap!
Who put these under the phone?
DN6..it's DN6!
Come on, I want an explanation! Why did you put these under the phone to stop me using it?!
Oh that's not important now!
Of course it's important!
Will you LISTEN to me?!
O-oh you've replaced your receiver have you Mr Smithers?
This isn't Mr Smithers. The extension was left off, I'm sorry.
Is that Mr Farrow?
Farrow? No.
Oh the other gentleman, I see. Only I've a call for Mr Farrow.
Oh, er..just a minute.
Do you think that you ought to be doing this Hilda?
Shh, listen.
Farrow here. Who is this?
D'you see, it's the same man!
Get him to talk a bit more.
Mr Farrow, I've got a London call for you. Will you accept the charges?
London? Oh, er... Yes, er, alright.
Hold on please.
Mm, yes, they do sound alike, I must say that. Perhaps I had better go up there..
H-hello, er, Mr Farrow.
I'm sorry, London has broken the connection, perhaps they'll call again?
Oh, er very well. Thank you.
Bert, it's the same man, no doubt about it!
Well, we'll soon find out.
Ooh I, er, think it's moving a bit...
Now come on, all together!
Wai.. It's coming.
Ian!
The tap's ready to turn on now.
Good. Now, Susan, I've wedged the matchbox against a knothole. What we're going to do is run at the side.
Mm. Oh, like using a battering ram!
Yes, that's the idea.
Yes.
Come on, get a hold of this.
Right.
Yes, I.. I think that's got it in about the right angle in this gas jet, mm.
BARBARA: Yes. DOCTOR: Hm?
Well all we'll succeed in doing is just melting this tin.
No no no no, I've had a good look at this. This is pressurised, it's a spray kind.
Our problem will be..will be, er, to get away, to get away far enough to, er...when it explodes.
Explodes?
Oh yes, it's going to explode. And when it does it'll go off..well, to us, a-a thousand pound bomb!
It's killed everything. Everything!
Smithers!
No no no, dear boy, try hitting the box at a sharper angle, more force, more pith!
Doctor, have you ever tried to lift one of these things?
Come on Ian, lets try again.
Charge!
They did it!
Yes! Come on, let's light the gas tap...turn it on!
Turn it down a bit, you don't want us burned alive! Uh, Doctor, Barbara, get behind that tap.
Get behind...that's it. Take it easy now, breathe.
And then he told me he couldn't authorise DN6! I had too much money sunk into it.
I had to kill him. Once I'd started I had to see it through, all the way!
Quickly!
Won't be long now!
Take as much cover as you can, when that thing explodes there'll be metal flying all over the place.
It'll be just like that air-raid Grandfather, do you remember?
Yes, very well. And what infernal machines those Zeppelins were hm!
Forester, think what you're doing! DN6 is more deadly than radiation! Doesn't that mean anything to you?
Get the briefcase!
It's worked, it's worked! Come on, all of you, back to the ship! Susan, you take, er, Barbara. Quickly, quickly.
But Doctor, what are you doing, that thing's covered in poison!
Yes I know it is, I know all about it.
Well what do you want it for?
You'd be surprised. (chuckles) Go on, lead on.
Mm, he'll live. Now I have some questions that need answering, now turn that gas off, you'll kill the lot of us!
We've got to repeat exactly wha..the things that happened to us when we landed.
Is there anything I can do?
Yes, that seed over there by the chair. Take it over to the table so that we can all see it. And wrap that round it when you do it.
Doctor!
Er!
Doctor I...
Shh-sh. I think it's working. Splendid, I think it's working, my boy!
Doctor, look at that seed!
Yes yes, we've done it! Yes, ha-ha ha-ha, we've done it, yes!
Doctor, it's incredible, that seed, it's completely vanished!
No no my dear boy, no. Hah-ha!
Look, can you see, it hasn't vanished at all!
Barbara?
Mm..mm, I'm so thirsty.
There you are, drink that.
Oh, I'd no idea water could taste so good.
Well well, here we are then, the patient is beginning to look her usual self again, mm? Hah-ha!
Thank you Doctor.
Not at all my dear boy, always at your service.
Doctor what happened in the laboratory, I don't remember much after the explosion.
Well I'm happy to say our plan worked, and we didn't have to fire the laboratory.
But we did attract attention. Do you know that a policeman came into the room just as I was about to climb down that pipe?
Oh good! Now what about us, can you get us back to normal?
Yes, there's your answer my dear.
Grandfather, is that the seed you brought in with you?
The same seed!
Hah-ha!
Then we are back to normal!
Completely my dear!
Now before I check up and see where we are, I suggest you all go and have a good scrub mm?
Oh please!
Go-on, off you go!
Oh dear-dear-dear-dear-dear, now isn't that irritating mm?!
I had to repair that wretched thing and now look at it, I can't see a thing!
Wait I... I think we're beginning to materialise, perhaps I shall know now where we are, mm? Hm-hm...
