Equipped with space suits, golf clubs, and a flag, the Doctor and Rose are planning to live it up, [[Apollo 11|Apollo]] mission-style, on [[the Moon]]. But the [[the Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] has other plans, landing them instead in a village on the south coast of [[England]]; a picture-postcard sort of place where nothing much happens. Until now... | Equipped with space suits, golf clubs, and a flag, the Doctor and Rose are planning to live it up, [[Apollo 11|Apollo]] mission-style, on [[the Moon]].

An archaeological dig has turned up a [[Rome|Roman]] mosaic, circa [[70]] [[AD]], depicting mythical scenes, grapes - and a [[Dalek]]. A few days later a young woman, rushing for work, is knocked over and killed by a bus, then comes back to life. It's not long before all hell breaks loose, and the Doctor and Rose must use all their courage and cunning against an alien enemy - and a not-quite-human accomplice - who are intent on destroying humanity. | An archaeological dig has turned up a [[Rome|Roman]] mosaic, circa [[70]] [[AD]], depicting mythical scenes, grapes - and a [[Dalek]].
