'New Pathways': 'Blast from the Past' (1 Part) by Robert Valentine

When the TARDIS starts playing up, the Doctor accidentally brings Chase and Alfie to Burnley in 2096, only to discover that the UK has become an authoritarian dictatorship under fascist leader Bastian Clore.

Chase in turn discovers that her descendants, the Moyo family of No 19 McKellen Drive, are major players in the underground resistance movement. Beyond the obvious, something is seriously wrong with history.

Has the past been rewritten by more than just the propaganda wing of Clore's jingoistic regime? And can Chase live up to the idealised memory her great-great-grandchildren hold of her?
