Synopsis
On Halley's Comet, there is a colony. A colony of creatures that live in ignorance of the rest of the universe. However, when a strange blue box arrives on the colony, their entire view of the multiverse is thrown completely upside-down. But nothing, not even the strange man in the box and his two companions, could possibly prepare these people for those coming for them. Nothing whatsoever. Now, the Doctor must force these complacent creatures to expand their views and think outside the box- or die trying.
