The TARDIS materialises just inside the grounds of a grand old manor house. The Doctor walks out, Poppy and Donna following.

"Oh, smell that air. Grass and lemonade. And a little bit of mint. A hint of mint. Must be the nineteen twenties,"

"You can tell what year it is just by smelling?" Donna asks, not believing him

"Oh, yeah,"

"Or maybe that big vintage car coming up the drive gave it away," Poppy laughs at Donna's sass.

The, Doctor, Donna and Poppy watch the conversation play out as a priest arrives.

"Never mind Planet Zog. A party in the nineteen twenties, that's more like it,"

"The trouble is, we haven't been invited. Oh, I forgot," He pulls out his physic paper "Yes, we have," Donna laughs and quickly walks in the TARDIS, Poppy stays back slightly "you coming?" The Doctor asks, he'd noticed how she'd been a bit down since The Hath situation "come on, party in the twenties, exactly what you need to cheer you up,"

"We'll be late for cocktails!" The Doctor bangs on the TARDIS doors. Donna comes out, now dressed in a beaded 1920's dress.

"What do you think? Flapper or slapper?" the Doctor looks serious for a moment before smiling

"Flapper. You look lovely," Donna smiles and steps down before Poppy also comes out of the TARDIS, in a blue dress.

"Sorry, had to put some contacts in. Didn't really feel like wearing 20's style glasses and I think she agreed, considering that's the one thing she didn't show me," Poppy nodded her head towards the TARDIS

The Doctor stared at her, she looked stunning. He hadn't had thoughts like these since...

Well the bush of roses next to him says it.

"You look gorgeous2 The Doctor compliments as Poppy joins arms with him, Donna on the other side

"I should hope so, I put heels on for this,"

"I should hope so, I put heels on for this,"

"Good afternoon!" The Doctor shouts as the trio work their way down the lawn

"Drinks, sir? Ma'am? Ma'am"

"Sidecar please,"

"And a lime and soda,"

"Same as him, thank you," Poppy tells the servant and he goes off to get them their drinks

"May I announce Lady Clemency Eddison," A petite older woman walks towards them
