Events

In 2007, the Tenth Doctor and Rose Tyler, trapped in an alternate universe dubbed "Pete's World" since the day before, escaped the Cyberman attack with the Preachers, Mickey Smith and Peter Tyler. They infiltrated the Cyberman factory, where every Londoner with EarPods was being upgraded, including Pete's wife, Jackie Tyler. After a Cyberman whose emotional inhibitor was broken died of shock, the Doctor sent a signal that deactivated every one of the newly-created Cybermen. Mickey and Jake destroyed the transmitter controls so the hypnotised EarPod-wearers could escape. Mickey also sent the Doctor the codes to break the inhibitor controls, destroying the Cybermen. The survivors of the resistance escaped the burning factory in a zeppelin. With the TARDIS cells charged (they were broken the day before), the Doctor and Rose returned to their universe. Mickey stayed behind, taking his deceased counterpart's place with the Preachers. (TV: The Age of Steel [+]Loading...["The Age of Steel (TV story)"])
