A prequel to Deep Breath was broadcast exclusively in cinema, making it the first valid story to be so broadcast. With the exception of introduction to TV: The Day of the Doctor, it was the first story since Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. in 1966 to be broadcast exclusively in cinemas.
Summary
The Paternoster Gang are in a spaceship that is going to crash in London. While Jenny Flint and Vastra guide the ship into water, Strax sends a message to Sontar on the topic of the Doctor's ability to regenerate. As he reaches the end of the message, he is interrupted by Jenny and told that they're about to parachute off the ship. As the gang leaves the ship, Vastra mentions that a dinosaur has been sighted in the River Thames.
