An Idea

Teaser: Earth, England, August 1845.

No answer but the knocking continues, one of the girls open the door. It is the Doctor, dishevelled and beaten, on the point of collapse, he whispers Help Me and falls into their arms.

Act Two: The Bounty Hunter that attacked the TARDIS is attempting to pick up the Doctor’s trail again. The Bronte sisters become enamoured of the Doctor, as he recovers
(his Time Lord constitution making him heal quicker than a human), but he is still too weak to make it back to the TARDIS, besieged by questions from the girls, he attempts to explain something about himself. The Bounty Hunter has determined the time and general location, he lands and immediately attacks a villager, demanding information. He is told of the weird weather and burning skies of the night before. Satisfied he is in the right area, he unleashes the Pack, genetically enhanced Ogrons, to track down the Doctor.
