Summary
En route to witness The Beatles' famed rooftop concert in 1969, The Doctor and Martha Jones find themselves instead in rural England in 1669, where alien interference is resulting in a revival of the Black Death, several years after it was supposedly eradicated. The Doctor's investigation takes on greater urgency when Martha becomes infected.
Characters
References
- The Doctor quips about Martha's liking for milkshakes, referencing events in IDW: Agent Provocateur.
- The Doctor and Martha are headed for January 30, 1969 to witness The Beatles' famed rooftop concert in London, an event also featured in NA: The Left-Handed Hummingbird.
- The Doctor says he started the Great Fire of London in 1666, but that "it was completely necessary", referencing DW: The Visitation.
Planets
Notes
- Martha Jones once again appears as the Doctor's companion; the IDW standalone series of comics is not being published in chronological order.
Continuity
- The reference to Martha liking milkshakes likely places this story after the events of IDW: Agent Provocateur, but otherwise there are no other direct clues indicating when this story takes place during Martha's travels (other than it occurring prior to DW: Utopia).
