The Doctor and Ellis

The TARDIS malfunctions and transports the Doctor to the Albert Hall in 2207, where he discovers an alien explosive device set to blow up the building. The Doctor manages to remove the device, but then things go wrong and he and the bomb are sent back in time to 2010, arriving in the middle of one of ‘The Proms’ performances. With the aid of a member of the audience, a plucky young boy named Ellis, the Doctor manages to defuse the explosive device, and he sets off to dispose of it safely…
