Tardisode 3 is the third of the Tardisode series of mini-episode prologues to Doctor Who Series 2. This Tardisode is a prelude to the episode, School Reunion.
Synopsis
Mickey is at a computer, looking at a website of UFO sightings, but is then blocked by a notice referring to Torchwood. He picks up his phone and calls Rose while sorting through newspaper clippings, telling her that he needs her and the Doctor to investigate lights in the sky and strange goings on at a school. The Tardisode ends with a shot of a Krillitane screaming into the camera. Unlike most other Tardisodes, the main episode makes dialogue reference to the events of the prequel.
Script
Mickey is on a computer typing fast as he looks up information.
Mickey (to himself): "Come on, Mickey, there's got to be something more than this."
Screen says "TORCHWOOD: ACCESS DENIED"
Mickey (to himself): "Which means I'm on to something."
Mickey pulls out his phone, dials a number, and brings it to his ear.
Mickey: "Rose, Rose, listen. There's this school, strange lights in the sky over it. Anyway, there's some weird things going on, and you and the Doctor, well, I need you. There's something out there."
Camera cuts to shot of a Krillitane, which opens it's wings and squeals at the camera.
Cast
Production crew
- Executive Producer - Russell T Davies
