The Tardis materialised and the Doctor walked over to the doors while Galaxy and Rose stayed by the console, when he opened the doors he saw a pair of cargo containers, Galaxy saw this on the screen she was looking at and couldn't help but smile and shake her head since this was a rare time for the Tardis to park on the wrong side.

"Ah." The Doctor turned back around as Galaxy made the Tardis turn so it was in the right spot and when the Doctor opened the doors again he saw the Tardis was now facing the right way. "Ah!" Galaxy, Astro and Rose made their way outside as well and Rose checked out a Shane Ward Greatest Hits poster that was on one of the containers. "So, near future, yeah?" She asked. "I had a passing fancy. Only it didn't pass, it stopped." The Doctor said before he took Galaxy's hand and they went off to explore the area.

"Thirtieth Olympiad." Galaxy said as they walked down a street and saw a banner between the houses advertising the Olympics. "Now way! Why didn't I think of this? That's great." Rose said. "Only seems like yesterday a few naked Greet blocks were tossing a discus about, wrestling each other in the sand with crowds stood around baying. No, wait a minute Club Med. Just in time for the opening doo dah, ceremony, tonight, we thought you'd like it. Last one they had in London was dynamite. Wembley, 1948. We loved it so much, we went back and watched it all over again. Fella carrying the torch. Lovely chap, what was his?" The Doctor asked looking at Galaxy.

"You're thinking of John Mark." "Ah, yes, legs like pipe cleaners, but strong as a whippet." "Doctor, Galaxy." Rose called to them when she saw some missing children posters. "And in those days, everybody had a tea party to go." The Doctor carried on neither of them seeing Astro going to Rose's side to have a look at the posters as well. "Doctor, Galaxy." "Did you ever have one of those little cakes with the crunchy ball bearings on top?" "You two should really look at this."

"Do you know those things? Nobody else in the entire galaxy's ever even bothered to make edible ball bearings. Genius." The Doctor and Galaxy finally turned to where Rose and Astro were and walked up to them and saw the missing child posters. "Wonder what's taking them. Snatching children from a ordinary street like this." Galaxy said as she looked at the two posters. "Why's it so cold? Is someone reducing the temperature?" The Doctor asked. "It says they all went missing this week. Why would a person do something like this."

"What makes you think it's a person?" The Doctor asked her. "Whatever it is, it's got the whole street scared to death. Guys, what..." Rose said and she turned to see the Doctor, Galaxy and Astro had run up the street to investigate the front garden.

"Ooh, tickles." The Doctor laughed, he and Galaxy were crouched in the garden with their hands out over the grass. "What's your game?" A man asked as he came to stand behind the two. "My er. Snakes and Ladders? Quite good at squash. Reasonable. I'm being facetious, aren't I. there's no call for it." The Doctor said as he and Galaxy quickly got up and the man soon started to back them onto the road, "We're police officers! That's what we are. We've got a badge and a police car. You don't have to get. We can, we can prove. Just hold on." The Doctor said and he started to rummage through his pockets for the psychic paper.

"We've had plenty of coppers poking around here, and you two don't look or sound like any of them." The man said as he pointed at them. "No, look. We've got a colleague. Lewis." Galaxy said as she pointed to Rose. "Well, she looks less like a copper than you two do." "Training. New recruit. It was either that or hairdressing, so, voila!" The Doctor said and showed his psychic paper to the man. "What are you going to do?" A woman asked that was standing by them.

"The police have knocked on every door. No clues, no leads, nothing." An old woman said. "Kids run off sometimes, all right. That's what they do." "Saw it with my own eyes. Dale Hicks in your garden, playing with your Tommy, and then pfft! Right in front of me, like he was never there. There's no need to look any further than this street. It's right here amongst us."
