In the first episode of the new BBC series, the Doctor and his new assistant Mark Lawrenson travel to a futuristic stadium in North London to investigate the strange case of two football teams from the 1950s meeting in a modern FA Cup Semi-Final. The Doctor suspects that an alien force is manipulating time and space to bring teams back from the past, to distract the populace so that they can invade London and enslave the world. Mark, meanwhile, insists simply that the bigger clubs no longer care about the Cup while they're still in Europe.
A 2-parter, in tomorrow's second episode the Doctor's suspicions deepen when two teams from the Edwardian era arrive to contest the second Semi.
