* Helen recalls sending a message to the past using TARDIS keys. (AUDIO: )
* Zakia and Aisha discuss their trip to 1941 and the Doctor's refusal to change history to save Sanjit from being shot. (AUDIO: )
* When the timeline is reset, the TARDIS team are faced with Robin's father, who is very concerned, asking them what they're doing out in public and why they aren't wearing masks. The TARDIS team are unfamiliar with the idea of COVID-19 and the Lockdown. (WC: et al)
