 * Tooth and Claw
 * “And so begins the empire of the wolf!"
 * The Doctor and Rose bump into Queen Victoria when she is passing through Scotland. A tree across the line has stopped the royal train so she must stay at Sir Robert MacLeish's house. But he has uninvited guests, and one in particular will make for a terrifying evening when the Moon is full!
