Synopsis

Part 1 of 2. When an anomaly forces the TARDIS off course, the Doctor, Rose, and Mickey find themselves trapped in London, 2006. But, it's not the London they know. Zeppelins fly overhead and Rose's father Pete appears to be still alive. But all is not right with this alternate universe. The populace seems oddly transfixed by earpods sold by Cybus Industries. What is Cybus head John Lumic up to?
