Summary Edit

In his video tape to Sally, the Doctor claims he was recently involved in a sword fight with two Sontarans.

Story notes Edit

This story was later adapted into the TV story Blink. The character remains named Sally Sparrow. Steven Moffat changed the character into an adult as he decreed that children did not like to watch other children acting. The same premise of communication across time using pre-recorded messages also remains, as does the idea of the Doctor being separated from the TARDIS and Sally piloting it to lead him towards it.
