Summary[[edit] | [edit source]]
It's Christmas, so the Doctor and Lucie spend Christmas in a B&B at a picturesque village, and they find that the village has had a large decrease in childbirth, and then they talk to the landlady's son, Oscar, about an almost extinct variety of bats. The Doctor and Lucie wake up next morning to see that Oscar has run off, and find him in a cave. There, he is trying to save a species of bat-people, and they want to reclaim earth by sterilisation...

- Lucie tells Oscar about "an evil race that covered a planet full of innocent people with thick choking dust". (AUDIO: Blood of the Daleks) After leaving Red Rocket Rising, the Doctor told Lucie that this race was created by a scientist that experimented with people's brains and put them in metal armour. (TV: Genesis of the Daleks)
