On [[5 March]] [[2005]], they had a gig at [[the Brook]] in [[Camden]], [[£]][[100 (number)|100]] for [[30 (number)|thirty]] [[minute]]s, and they spent the morning in the [[kitchen]] of [[Mickey Smith's flat]] coming up with a new name. They met up later a [[6 (number)|6]][[PM|pm]] for a [[sound check]]. That night, Mickey Smith didn't show up, as he had been taken by the [[Auton]]s, and they were left to get [[Big Bone Bill]] to fill in. Their perfomance didn't go well, as the audience was sparse during their performance, with people only showing up to see the performance of [[Three Brothers from Dulwich]], and they heard the applause for the band "they'd never had" in the [[corridor]]. | On [[5 March]] [[2005]], they had a gig at [[the Brook]] in [[Camden]], [[£]][[100 (number)|100]] for [[30 (number)|thirty]] [[minute]]s, and they spent the morning in the [[kitchen]] of [[Mickey Smith's flat]] coming up with a new name.

After their gig, Big Bone Bill had driven the [[drum]]s and [[kit]] home in [[Big Bone Bill's van|his van]], leaving the rest of the group to wander to the [[Cellar Lights]] bar on [[Old Compton Street]], as Patrice knew [[barman (Rose)|a barman]] there who could give them a few free [[drink]]s. However, they witnessed a trio of Autons break out of a shop window and brutally kill [[Shop owner (Rose)|its owner]], and the group fled. They were followed by the trio of Autons, who were joined by a group of childlike Autons who had [[peashooter]]s as their weapons, and the group fled down an [[alley]]way. However, the alley was a dead end, and they couldn't escape through any of the doors as the people inside had lokced them tightly shut, and they prepared for the worst as the Autons drew closer, however, [[Rose Tyler]] had defeated the [[Nestene Consciousness]] just at the right time, sending the advancing Autons to fall to the floor. The group then set out to raid anywhere that stocked medical supplies so that they could help those wounded.

In [[2022]], when [[Cleo Proctor]] and [[Shawna Thompson]] entered [[Chicken Shack & Rack|a sandwich shop]] to get a [[coffee]], they received many [[telephone]] [[call]]s from the past, one of them being from a schoolfriend of Cleo's asking if she "[knew when] No Hot Ashes [was] playing". Cleo believed that No Hot Ashes had stopped "existing" by that point. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Ghosts (Redacted audio story)}}) | |||
