Aliens of London

Original BBC Website: Episode 4

"900 years in time and space and I've never been slapped by someone's mother!"

The kids: They love the scatalogical humor.
Well, it turns out that when you leave your family, friends, life and planet behind to go adventuring in time and space, things change at home while you're away. Family and friends are affected, sometimes profoundly.

The next episode, World War Three, is, in my judgement, slightly superior to this one. But these two episodes together with episode 6 constitute a key character development.

You can't miss the "Bad Wolf" reference in this episode. A neighborhood kid graffitis the words on the side of the Tardis.
