Love & Monsters

Story

Featuring: Tenth Doctor, Rose Tyler

Placement Rating: 
5 - Part of ongoing series
Location: 
England, probably London. c. 2007.

The Doctor visits Elton Pope's house, trying to defeat an Elemental Shade who had escaped from the Howling Halls. He stopped it, but Elton's mother died before he could do so.

The Doctor and Rose are fighting a Hoix on contemporary Earth when Elton barges in searching for the Doctor. The Doctor and Rose defeat it, stopping it from attacking Elton in the process. He thinks that he recognises Elton.

The Doctor tracks down Elton, and an Absorbalof from Clom (the twin planet of Raxacoracofallapatorius) who has been trying to absorb Elton. He hints that the people who have been absorbed can fight the Absorbalof. They do so - pulling its body apart, and Elton snatches and breaks a cane it has been carrying, as one of them suggests. The cane contained a limitation field which kept its body together.

Placement Notes: 
This story is told from Elton's point of view, and clearly establishes that he is an unreliable narrator. It's unclear when the Tenth Doctor's first two meetings with Elton take place. They most likely take place in the sequence above, but the first two could easily take place at any time before the final one.
