He uses the scanner to narrow down the source of the change : during the 1981 Ashes series , Graham Dilley , who was supposed to make a catch that kept the Ashes in England , instead gets distracted and drops the ball , allowing Australia the win . When the Doctor scans the crowd for the source of the distraction , he finds that it is . . . Tegan Jovanka . The Doctor explains to the girls that he and his companion s were at the match .

The Doctor soon joins Turlough , and the girls have to find another way to Tegan . On the way , they ( literally ) run into a police man , who intends to take them to the station , but changes his mind when they give him their full names . When they reach Tegan , Erimem puts a hand on her shoulder , but suddenly can ' t think of anything to say . Peri blurts out , " Nice shoes ? " and the three girls begin a conversation . However , they are interrupted by an irate man in the crowd and his pregnant wife , and the five are soon in a heated argument . Their argument attracts the attention of many , including Graham Dilley , who fails to notice the ball is heading his way . Peri and Erimem despair that they failed , but Tegan yells to Dilley , " Watch the ball , you muppet . " Dilley catches the ball , England win , and history is restored . The three girls head for a pub . Later , Peri and Erimem , very drunk , arrive back at the TARDIS . The Doctor scolds them , then suddenly remembers the last time he was at this match , Tegan was hungover the next morning .
