 Rose has changed into denim mini dungarees. Nova and Noah walked into the console room obviously in matching outfits.

Rose laughs seeing the two, it had taken a little bit for her to get used to the twin's behavior together, but she was happy to see Nova, happy, and then Rose turns around, showing her outfit off to the three, "What do you think of this? Will it do?"

"In the late 1970s? You'd be better off in a bin bag. Hold on, listen to this." Nova looks at Noah and snorts as he shakes his head at her while the Doctor puts a CD into the Tardis player.

"Ian Dury and the Blockheads. Number One in 1979."

Rose gives him a look "You're a punk."

He shrugs at her "It's good to be a lunatic."

Rose grins at him "That's what you are. A big old punk with a bit of rockabilly thrown in."

Nova comes up beside Rose "Hey now don't knock Ian Dury."

Noah comes up on the other side of his sister "I don't think she meant it like that Novs."

The Doctor looks at the three of them "Would you like to see him?"

Nova grins at her dad "oh yeah"

Rose looks at the Doctor "How'd you mean? In concert?"

Nova grins as her dad looks at the three of them " What else is a Tardis for? I can take you to the Battle of Trafalgar, the first anti-gravity Olympics, Caesar crossing the Rubicon or Ian Dury at the Top Rank, Sheffield, England, Earth, 21st of November 1979. What do you think?"

Rose and Nova share a look as Rose answers "Sheffield it is."

Nova grins "yes!"

Noah smiles at his sister's excited face. Both of the twins were happy to be reunited.

"Hold on tight" The Doctor beats the rhythm of the song on the console as they travel.

Rose gives him a look "Stop!" while the twins just laugh, Nova singing along to the song playing. They stop suddenly and get thrown to the floor.

Noah gets up helping Nova up who turns and helps Rose up as her dad gets up and they start walking towards the door "1979. Hell of a year. China invades Vietnam. The Muppet Movie. I love that film. Margaret Thatcher. Urgh. Skylab falls to Earth, with a little help from me. Nearly took off my thumb."

Nova snorts "Why am I not surprised you don't like Margaret Thatcher? Of course, you helped with that... I'm not even surprised at this point" which causes Rose and Noah to laugh.

The Doctor doesn't pay her comment any mind as he continues out the door of the Tardis "And I like my thumb. I need my thumb. I'm very attached to" Rifles are cocked. "My thumb."

They are surrounded by Redcoats. The officer in charge is on a black horse. Nova resists the urge to facepalm because her dad got the flight wrong again this wasn't 1979. He looks at the three of them "1879. Same difference."

Nova shakes her head and whispers "once again not even surprised at this point" Which was only heard by Noah and earned her a nudge and a smirk, he also knew how their father was and wasn't surprised either.

The man on the black horse looks at the Doctor "You will explain your presence. And the nakedness of this girl."

The Doctor does a very impressive Scottish accent "Are we in Scotland?"

The man looks at him "How can you be ignorant of that?"

"Oh, I'm, I'm dazed and confused. I've been chasing this, this wee naked child over hill and over dale. Isn't that right, ya timorous beastie?"
