Rose walked out in a denim mini-dungarees "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,"

I couldn't help but laugh "Ian Dury and the Blockheads." I noted

"Number One in 1979," he added

"My brother would like you," I laughed

"You're a punk,"

"It's good to be a lunatic,"

"That's what you are. A big old punk with a bit of rockabilly thrown in,"

"Would you like to see him?"

Me and Rose looked at each other and back at him "How'd you mean?"

"In concert?" I asked

"What elses 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 November, 1979. What do you think?"

"Sheffield it is,"

"That's blank," I told Rose

"As you can see, a Doctorate from the University of Edinburgh. I trained under Doctor Bell himself,"

"Let them approach," a voice called out from the carriage

"I don't think that's wise, ma'am,"

"Let them approach," she commanded

"You will approach the carriage, and show all due deference," A footman opened the door revealing the woman
