10.1 The Mouthless Dead
Part one
The TARDIS brings the Doctor, Jamie, Ben and Polly to a train platform in Kent. It gets partially damaged by a passing train and the four are forced to leave and give it time to repair itself. They visit the signalman to inquire about any damage accidentally done to the train and he treats them to tea upon discovering Ben's and Jamie's credentials. He tells them some scary stories about terrible train accidents. Polly, wanting a breath a fresh air, steps out, followed by Jamie and Ben while the Doctor stays behind to talk trains with the guard, having got on well with him and he tells him the train story of the "Phantom Light".
While exploring the station, they get an uneasy feeling and Ben spots an eerie figure in a dark coat who disappears. They go to the waiting room and find a woman named Frances whom Polly talks to alone. She reveals she is waiting for her fiancee's body to be brought back from the war. Meanwhile, outside, Ben explains to Jamie about the First World War and the Unknown Warrior. They see a lamp in the distance and decide to go warn a mysterious figure they see in the distance. Ben reveals the figure are actually figures and look like his Uncle's crew from the Lion moving towards them. He and Jamie finds the Doctor and explains the situation. The signalman tries to send a warning to the train through the signals to slow down while Ben explains what he saw to the Doctor.
