In the house, the Doctor knocks on Mr Bird's door and, after he answers, forces his way in.

Mr Bird enters and tells them that he has called a tenants' meeting in which he will reveal that the Doctor has been spying on them. | In the house, the Doctor knocks on Mr Bird's door and, after he answers, forces his way in.
