Lady [[Christina de Souza]] stole it during Easter [[2009]] and then travelled on a [[bus]], [[the 200]], through a [[wormhole]] to [[San Helios|another planet]]. The [[Tenth Doctor]] later used it to get the bus and its passengers back through the wormhole to [[Earth]]. The gold was conducive and able to be the basis for an electrical current.  Unfortunately, he had to destroy the cup in the process because it did not fit into the apparatus constructed to house it, forcing the Doctor to bash it down to size with a hammer. Christina was chastened at the loss of the antique. ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Dead (TV story)|Planet of the Dead]]'')
