On 26 June 1890, the Eleventh Doctor took his mother- and father-in-law, Amy Pond and Rory Williams, to the Savoy Hotel for an anniversary present. The hotel had only recently opened at that time. He assured them there would be no complications, only to discover there was a Zygon ship under the Savoy, and half of the staff were impostors. The Doctor, Amy and Rory managed to deal with this.
