The Doctor, Nyssa and Tegan find themselves trapped in history - and
discover that even the most familiar of pasts can still conceal
surprises.
1. Pursuit of the Nightjar by Tim Foley (4 parts)
The story of the Nightjar has been told for many years. A spaceship
helmed by the legendary Captain Goben on a vital mission of mercy,
delivering medical supplies to a distant colony in the middle of
devastating war, an act of bravery that triggers the end of the
conflict.
At her heels throughout the journey, her pursuer, the spaceship
Nemesis, helmed by the dogged Captain Eslo, never quite able to catch
her target. The Doctor has always wanted to witness these historic
events. And now, alongside Nyssa and Tegan, he's got his chance.
But history might just have other ideas.
2. Resistor by Sarah Grochala (2 parts)
The TARDIS lands in a basement beneath a club in Warsaw in 1982 - which
is a bit of a surprise as the Doctor was hoping to take Nyssa and Tegan
to Yugoslavia.
But a bigger surprise is yet to come - the band on stage are missing
one of their musicians. And getting them through the gig is only the
start of the TARDIS crew's troubles.
Something strange is happening on the streets. Black cars glide
through the city, picking off the unwary. Some are driven by the Secret
Police... but others... by something very much not of this world.
