Summary

 * A school lesson in Leeds is interrupted by one of the pupils- Archie, sneezing. From his nose erupts a giant snot monster. With every sneeze more snot pours out. The Doctor and Decky Flamboon arrive an hour later when the school and the streets are covered in snot and a  giant snot monster is on the run. A scan by the Doctor with his sonic screwdriver finds the snot is harmless but is also alien! Trapping the monster down an alley they are alarmed when they realise that the creature is growing at a rapid rate. But the creature is stopped in its tracks by a small yappy poodle. The Doctor reaches for his sonic screwdriver and by reversing the signal the creature is reduced to its former size. Returning to the school, the Doctor finds Archie and stuffs it back up his nose. The Doctor explains that the boy is actually an alien called Archie in disguise. Archies are two aliens one inside the other which causes chaos if they are separated. The Doctor suggests that if Archie is to continue studying in an Earth school he should at least carry a hankie!
