The Doctor gripped onto the control hub of the TARDIS as she flew rather violently through time and space.
"Can you pull that?" he asked Amy, gesturing at one of the knobs in front of her. It should, if he was right about how this new TARDIS format worked, give them a quick push and shorten their journey to only a couple of seconds.
"Sorry about the detour," he said, hammering a large button next to him. "We'll get to Ancient Greece in a moment... just got to pick up a friend."
He frowned then, and tilted his head to the side as he looked at Amy questioningly. "I did tell you about Addi, didn't I?"
The familiar grating sound of the engines filled the room, and they stopped with a loud thud. He ran to the door, and peeked out, just to check they were in the right place. Yep, definitely Berwick-upon-Tweed.

To say Amy wasn't used to the Doctor's crazy driving would be an understatement; but she loved it. Gripping tightly to the console she laughed as the ship threw them about a bit.
"Can you pull that?" she heard the Doctor ask her. Turning her gaze on him she obediently pulled the indicated knob. She loved getting to play with the ship. It all still seemed so...fantastical! There was no other word for it.
"So where are we going," she asked as they continued to travel. One particular bump sent her sprawling to the floor with an 'oomph'. A laugh escaped her lips as she pushed herself up to look at the Doctor.
"Sorry about the detour," he said, hammering a large button next to him. "We'll get to Ancient Greece in a moment... just got to pick up a friend."
"A friend?" she said, frowning slightly.
"I did tell you about Addi, didn't I?"
Pulling herself up she crossed her arms watching him. "No I don't believe you did. I think I would have remembered."
An idea crossed her mind and she perked up. "Oh is she an alien? Is she from another planet? Are we going to another planet Doctor?" she asked, suddenly excited.
The Tardis landed and she nearly fell face first into the console. Regaining her balance she looked around.
"Doctor?"
The Tardis doors were already being opened. Running over she peaked around his shoulder, excited. "So, where are we?"

"No I don't believe you did. I think I would have remembered."
The Doctor pulled a face at himself and shrugged. "Whoops... must have slipped my mind... too much going on up here you see," he said, by way of apology. "Hmm... she's not going to be happy to know I forgot about her..."
"Oh is she an alien? Is she from another planet? Are we going to another planet Doctor?"
"No, she's not an alien," he said. "Well... I don't think she is... You'd think I'd notice that kind of thing."
"Doctor?"
He looked around outside for a moment, just double checking that he had parked in a relatively hidden spot... he hadn't landed on anybody etc etc. All seemed well so he threw the TARDIS doors open wide.
"So, where are we?"
"Berwick-upon-Tweed," he said grandly. Not the other planet she so wanted to go to... but they'd get there eventually. "Addi lives there," he pointed to the large castle infront of them. "Won't take a moment."
