Summary
The TARDIS arrives somewhere near Birmingham during the Ice Age but as Amy Pond opens the doors a Neanderthal falls in pursued by a sabre-toothed tiger. Believing he has been rescued by a snow god, the Neanderthal talks of demons at “the edge of the world”. The Doctor realises that the snow storm is not natural and investigating further led by the Neanderthal find a mirrored wall in the Arctic behind which are three-eyed bald orange aliens. The Doctor finds a door opens it and finds an alien laboratory where the human strengths are being tested. The rest of the Neanderthals missing tribes people are suspended in a block of ice. The Doctor is furious and while the Neanderthal smashes the containment crystals the Doctor deactivates the force walls setting everyone free and opening the doors. As the Neanderthals make their escape the sabre-toothed tigers enter through another entrance leaving the aliens no choice but to evacuate and cancel their experiment. With everything back to normal the Doctor promises to take Amy somewhere warmer with no ice creams!
