    2/54

    EXT.FX SHOT.

    A beautiful blue planet, hanging in the sky. A few

    small islands are dotted far apart from each other

    around the planet. Its Rings slowly drifting around

    it. Suddenly CAMERA, pans down through the planet.

    Down and Down and Down, through the planets

    atmosphere and into...

    INT. OFFICE.DAY

    DOCTOR RATNYAKA, human, is sitting by a large desk.

    The walls and ceiling surrounding him are made ofglass. Like one big giant bubble. Behind the glass is

    the ocean. GIANT JELLYFISH slowly bob around in the

    water. DOCTOR RATNYAKA looks at some PAPERS.

    DOCTOR RATNYAKA

    But thats impossible... 15 inches of exoglass and

    they still manage to get in!

    CAMERA reveals the paper he is holding to be a

    newspaper cutting: THIRD DEATH ON ENJONGIA PROMPTS

    DETECTIVE INVESTIGATION.

    DOCTOR RATNYAKA puts down the cutting sighs and

    stands up. He calls to someone.

    DOCTOR RATNYAKA

    VERA! To me, I need you to see this...

    From the door, VERA appears, humanoid, slim, but her

    body is completely purple...

    VERA

    Doctor Ratnyaka?

    She walks over, He looks at her,

    DOCTOR RATNYAKA

    Vera, look at these readings...

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    3/54

    He hands over various bits of paper; VERA scans the

    papers and looks up, her eyes wide

    DOCTOR RATNYAANow tell me this whole incident is a hoax.

    VERA opens her mouth to speak when suddenly, the

    lights flash, not out, but brighter... As if a big

    lightning strike had filled the room.

    VERA

    Doctor what was that?

    DOCTOR RATNYAKA is speechless.

    VERA

    But sir, what it said in all our research. The

    rumours are true,

    DOCTOR RATNYAKA picks up a small tattered book.

    Another Flash, He quickly skips through the pages,

    until he finds what he is looking for, CAMERA on the

    page, some words. DOCTOR RATNYAKA reads them out. Asense of panic in his voice.

    DOCTOR RATNYAKA

    When the lights begin to flash, you know youre not

    alone. When the lights begin to flash youd better

    run. For when the lights begin to flash, youll be

    dead before you know it.

    VERA and DOCTOR RATNYAKA look at each other in

    horror, the lights are flashing more frequent now. In

    the breaks between the flashes, VERA looks towards

    the wall where a crack is appearing.

    VERA

    Doctor Ratnyaka?

    The GIANT JELLYFISH face the crack, as if they are

    gleeful that the wall is going to smash. VERA and

    DOCTOR RATNYAKA both stare at the wall...It smashes,VERA screams at the top of her voice as the JELLYFISH

    4/54

    come crashing down on her. As water engulfs the room,

    the JELLYFISH laugh.

    CUT TO TITLES

    INT.TARDIS INTERIOR.

    The TARDIS console is whirring and spinning away. THE

    DOCTOR and AMY standing around it, talking.

    THE DOCTOR

    So, Cleopatra...or...Civil War...

    AMY looks blankly at THE DOCTOR.

    THE DOCTOR

    Im thinking no votes for the Civil War then?

    AMY still silent, no words coming out

    THE DOCTOR

    What is it you want?

    AMY

    O.K, call me a killjoy but, Ive kind of had enough

    of all this danger and excitement thing. Its like

    one giant Clich here with you, I want a holiday.

    Somewhere relaxing. You never took me to Rio after

    the whole Silurian stuff...

    THE DOCTOR looks horrified

    THE DOCTOR

    What? Thats stupid, why would you want a holiday?

    AMY

    Because you numpty Im Human. Im not sure about Time

    Lords, but most Humans get tired of their everyday

    lives and just want a break. You know, to relax.

    THE DOCTOR still looks unconvinced. But, he gives in.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    5/54

    THE DOCTOR

    O.K, but were going where I choose.

    AMY

    Which is where?

    THE DOCTOR

    Youll see. The trouble about you Amy is that you

    always ask questions.

    He races around the TARDIS console, pushing buttons

    and pulling levers.

    AMY

    Shut up.

    THE DOCTOR ignores AMY and carries on pressing

    buttons. Until the familiar scream of the TARDIS

    engines start.

    THE DOCTOR

    And...Were...Off!

    EX.FXSHOT.

    THE TARDIS spins into view, in front of it a BLUE

    PLANET, various rings encircling it. THE TARDIS doors

    open and out pops the heads of AMY and THE DOCTOR.

    THE DOCTOR

    So Amy, what do you think that is?

    AMY

    A Planet?

    THE DOCTOR

    Well, yes, but...look at it, Amy... This planet is

    the most talked about planet in all the cosmos. This

    is the planet of Enjongia, the biggest aquarium in

    all the solar systems. Oh, this planet is home to all

    kinds of species. The moon sharks of Saturn.Jokonoch. Even Star Whales, they live in the sky of

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    6/54

    course but still. If its fishy its here! Never

    heard of it?

    AMY

    Nope! Shows how much I get out then doesnt it?

    THE DOCTOR

    Yes, it does.

    AMY

    Oi! Ever heard the term rhetorical question?

    THE DOCTOR ignores her yet again.

    THE DOCTOR

    So, Amy. Fancy a look?

    INT.TOURISM SUITE. DAY.

    The TOURISM SUITE. A beautiful reception room.

    Modern, with sofas and chairs dotted around the room.

    A long desk at one end, a door at the other. One

    whole wall is completely made of glass. Big shark

    like creatures swimming along. Suddenly, THE TARDIS

    materializes into a corner of the room. AMY stepsout. AMY sees the shark-like creatures through the

    glass, sequels and runs to the glass.

    AMY

    Cool, Space sharks!

    The doctorstrides out the TARDIS; he notices AMY and

    walks up to her.

    THE DOCTOR

    Now, Amy. Dont be rude.

    A tall woman enters the suite, ALEXIS, Female, Human.

    She stares at THE DOCTOR and AMY.

    ALEXIS

    Um... sorry to keep you waiting. Are you here to buy

    tickets.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    7/54

    THE DOCTOR is about to say something, when AMY gets

    there before him.

    AMY

    Yeah, we were. Actually were members of theparliament of... Mars. So we were told we could get

    in for free... werent we Doctor!

    AMY nudges THE DOCTOR, indicating the small wallet in

    THE DOCTORs pocket.

    THE DOCTOR

    Yes. Yes, we were

    He takes out the PSYCIC PAPAER and holds it up to

    ALEXIS

    ALEXIS

    I see. Well then, if youd like to go through those

    doors. You should have access to the main breeding

    points. Enjoy your visit!

    She indicates the door. Smiles, and heads off behind

    the desk. THE DOCTOR and AMY walk through the doors.

    INT.DEPATURE SUITE.DAY

    A huge room, all hustle and bustle, various different

    species all walking in different directions. Arranged

    around the room in a big triangle are different

    pillars of light. Not too big. Just enough to fit

    three or four people in. AMY watches as a group of

    people stand in one of these pillars and disappears.

    THE DOCTOR

    Far range Teleports, whizz tourists off to different

    points of the planet, see. Different breeds or

    species grow in different areas. Its like on Earth.

    THE DOCTOR and AMY, move to the centre of the room

    where a big holographic map of the planet is.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    8/54

    AMY

    And this is a map of the whole thing, yeah?

    THE DOCTOR

    Exactly. Now lets see... where havent I beenbefore.

    He studies the map carefully.

    THE DOCTOR

    Ah! There we are. Ive been meaning to go there.

    Never got around to it.

    AMY

    Where are we going?

    THE DOCTOR

    The Valley Of Aqodeen.

    He gives AMY a big grin.

    INT.AQOUDIAN CHAPEL.DAY.

    A TV screen. On the TV screen is the fuzzy image ofthe DEPARTURE SUITE, Its a CCTV screen .THE DOCTOR

    and AMY can be seen someone watching. Its SELLY,

    Female, Human. She calls into a WALKIE-TALKIE

    SELLY

    Yes, we have someone. But they should know the

    Valleys out of bounds. Were gonna have to shut the

    teleport down. They cant come here. If tourists find

    out about whats happened this whole planets gonna be

    mortified. Over.

    INT.DEPARTURE SUITE.DAY.

    THE DOCTOR and AMY stand in the light alone, no-one

    else.

    THE DOCTOR

    Im surprised were the only people going. The ValleyOf Aqodeens supposed to be Enjongias most popular

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    9/54

    exhibit. Its home to a severly endangered race. The

    Jokonoch. Or to you more known as Space Jellyfish

    AMYO.K, well...lets get off then. Its already nearly

    noon. Lets Hurry up Before these Joko-whatsits all

    die.

    THE DOCTOR flicks a button, on a control panel next

    to the pillar. They disappear.

    INT.FX SHOT.

    THE DOCTOR and AMY are zooming along a blur of colour

    and light. THE DOCTOR screaming. AMY whooping with

    enjoyment. And then...

    INT.FEEDING TUNNEL.DAY.

    The colours stop. THE DOCTOR and AMY are thrown

    foreword and land on their backs in some sort of

    corridor. A sign above reads: JOKONOCH FEEDING TUNEL,

    A group of equipments bundled up in one of thecorridors sides. The whole floor, glass. With Giant

    Jellyfish swimming beneath them, JOKONOCH.

    AMY

    That felt a bit short. I was enjoying that!

    THE DOCTORs not listening. He has his screwdriver

    out and is inspecting the walls.

    THE DOCTOR

    Yeah, It was. Were not there yet. Someones shut

    down the teleport system. And we seem to have ended

    up in a feeding tunnel

    There are instructions on the wall. THE DOCTOR reads

    them.

    Instructions for feeding Tunnels: AT 11:00 ALL

    FEEDING TUNNELS ARE TO BE DISINFECTED FROM ANY

    HARMFUL GERMS TO THE FISH. AT 12:00, THE JOKONOCHMUST BE AUTOMATICALLY FED FROM THE CONTROL ROOM. IT

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    10/54

    IS IMPORTANT TO BE IN THE CONTROL ROOM AT THIS POINT,

    AS THIS POINT. FOR THE FOOD FOR THE JOKONOCH ARE

    STORED IN THE FEEDING TUNNELS. AND THE FEEDING

    TUNNELS AUTOMATICALLY OPEN SO THE FISH CAN EAT. THE

    FISH DO EAT HUMANS.

    THE DOCTOR

    Oh, thats bad...

    AMY

    What?

    THE DOCTOR

    Were in this feeding tunnel, right?

    AMY

    Right?

    THE DOCTOR

    And its now 12.00?

    AMY

    Just about, yeah!

    THE DOCTOR

    So, its feeding time...This is the feeding tunnel

    AMY looks at THE DOCTOR in horror, she realises what

    he means.

    AMY

    Well, weve got to get out! Quick!

    AMY starts frantically running about. Shes

    panicking.

    AMY

    I dont want to be eaten by giant Jellyfish!

    Suddenly lights start flashing, lightning like,

    filling the room with

    white light.

    AMY

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    11/54

    Doctor, what was that?

    THE DOCTOR

    I dont know. Could be a warning of some kind. Or

    something more deadly...

    Suddenly the ground begins to shake. And the glass

    floor begins to move.

    Letting the water gush into the tunnel. AMY screams,

    shes terrified.

    THE DOCTOR

    GERONIMOOOOO!

    INT.JOKONOCH TANK.DAY.

    AMY and THE DOCTOR are panicking in the water.

    JOKONOCH swimming slowly toward them. AMY tries to

    scream., but the water drowns out the sound. THE

    DOCTOR and AMY (still holding their breath) swim as

    fast as they can away from THE JOKONOCH. Until they

    hit a glass wall. Through it, they can see SELLY

    staring at them, safe in a viewing deck. Shes

    horrified.As the JOKONOCH nearly reach THE DOCTOR and AMY, AMY

    is almost to the point of suffocation, and she

    indicates herself and THE DOCTOR to. SELLY, (through

    the glass). THE JOKONOCH are just about to touch THE

    DOCTOR, just when another flash of light happens,

    When SELLY presses a button on a control panel she is

    holding. THE DOCTOR and AMY disappear.

    INT.PRESIDENTIAL VIEWING DECK.DAY.

    A comfortable room Glass walls surround the area,

    Jokonoch behind it. Empty, except for SELLY. Who is

    sitting on an armchair facing a sofa. Waiting.

    Then... AMY and THE DOCTOR appear. Soaking wet. They

    are sitting opposite SELLY on the sofa. Who has the

    control panel in her hand.

    SELLY

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    12/54

    Humite! It locks on to your basic humanoid life

    forms! We have it here in case the tourists get stuck

    in the tanks.

    AMY ignores SELLY. She turns to THE DOCTOR. She

    looks angry.

    AMY

    Im drenched. Im freezing and I nearly got eaten by

    Space Jellyfish. Not really my idea of a relaxing

    holiday eh Doctor?

    THE DOCTOR

    Well, technically speaking youre not freezing. The

    temperature of that water levels at more or less 1

    degrees Celsius which is just above freezing.

    AMY is speechless. She hates it when THE DOCTOR

    teases her.

    SELLY

    First things first. Who are you two and where did youcome from?

    THE DOCTOR

    No,I think the first question ought to be, Why did

    you almost let us be fed to that pack of Jokonoch?

    THE DOCTOR indicates behind him. Where JOKONOCH are

    swimming.

    SELLY

    O.K, I think we may have got off to a rocky start.

    Its not our fault. The Valley of Aqodeen has been

    out of bounds since Tuesday, so you shouldnt have

    been coming here anyway, the feeding is an automatic

    process, we cant stop it. And anyway why are you

    having a go at me. If it wasnt for me youd be dead!

    THE DOCTOR

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    13/54

    No...Fair point. But, if this valley was out of

    bounds this week, then why was the teleport system up

    and running?

    SELLYBecause, we have scientists coming from all over the

    solar system coming here. To investigate something.

    THE DOCTOR

    And what is it theyre investigating?

    SELLY sighs

    SELLY

    Somethings happened. Something horrible. These

    Scientists are our only hope...

    AMY butts in.

    AMY

    Well thats us!

    THE DOCTOR looks at AMY in surprise,

    SELLY

    What?

    AMY

    The Doctor and Amy Pond! Were scientists from Earth.

    THE DOCTOR mouths: WE ARE?, AMY nods vigorously.

    THE DOCTOR

    Yes, we are. And we thought wed come and investigate

    SELLY

    Earth? I dont think we called for anyone there to

    help us...

    THE DOCTOR

    No, you didnt. But news gets around fast. And Amy

    and I just thought that wed have a look round

    ourselves.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    14/54

    SELLYWell, if you are scientists then we could use you.

    The Labs just through here. Follow me.

    SELLY walks through a door at the end of the room.

    THE DOCTOR and AMY look at each other.

    AMY

    Doctor she said that something horrible had happened.

    THE DOCTOR

    I know. Somethings fishy around here.

    AMY rolls her eyes.

    THE DOCTOR

    And were not leaving until we find out what...

    They both head off behind the door.

    INT.VALLEY LAB.DAY

    A large laboratory, No glass walls. Various worktops

    with sinks and power cables running along it.

    Different people standing around different desks, all

    wearing lab coats. SELLY beckons for THE DOCTOR and

    AMY to follow her. SELLY is chatting away to

    PROFFESOR OBERON. Old, quite short, purple skinned.

    He holds out his hand to THE DOCTOR, who happily

    shakes it. OBERON offers AMY a hand shake. But she

    declines. AMY turns to THE DOCTOR

    AMY

    Doctor, hes purple.

    THE DOCTOR

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    15/54

    Amy, again with the rudeness! Everyone whos native

    to this planet is purple. Its as normal as humans

    having a nose. Sorry about Amy, shes from Earth

    not very big imaginations. They find it hard to

    accept things.

    OBERON ignores this.

    OBERON

    My name is Professor Oberon

    AMY

    Nice name bit Shakespeare.

    OBERON looks confused

    OBERON

    Im sorry who?

    AMY

    Shakespeare

    OBERON

    Shakespeare?

    AMY

    Oh, never mind...

    AMY shakes OBERONS hand.

    AMY

    Nice to meet you!

    OBERON walks over to the centre of the room. THE

    DOCTOR and AMY follow. SELLY walks with AMY.

    SELLY

    My Father is head of Physics here in Enjongia.

    AMY

    Hes your father is he? Thats nice. Get to work with

    your dad! But how come your not...

    SELLY

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    16/54

    Purple! Im a cross-species. My mother was human. I

    got her genes.

    OBERONLadies and Gentlemen, if I could have your attention

    just for a moment.

    The SCIENTISTS in the room all turn to look at

    OBERON.

    OBERON

    These are our new scientists from...

    OBERON looks at AMY and THE DOCTOR

    AMY

    Earth!

    OBERON

    Yes, from Earth. The Doctor and Miss Amy Pond! I

    trust you to make them welcome here. Back to work!

    All the SCIENTISTS start working again. AMY walksaround the lab greeting everyone while THE DOCTOR

    talks to OBERON.

    THE DOCTOR

    So, Oberon. What exactly are you working on?

    OBERON looks puzzled.

    OBERON

    Why, you should know! Selly here tells me you came

    here by yourself to investigate this.

    THE DOCTOR

    Well, had a glass of Vodka or two. Never knew how

    strong that stuff really is!

    OBERON

    Yes, quite. Alright. Were investigating the bodies

    recently found here in the Valley.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    17/54

    THE DOCTOR

    Bodies! Now thats interesting.

    OBERONBut, its funny. All of the victims seem to be human,

    or at least, humanoid. The bodies were all found

    amongst ruins of the buildings As if the threat were

    dealing with destroyed the buildings as well.

    We found each of the Victims with all moisture

    drained from their bodies. This is one of the

    Jokonoch killing techniques other than the more

    common sting of course. But, the Jokonoch came from

    the planet gorgeon, they lived and interacted with

    humanoids every day, they wouldnt dream of hurting

    the tourists.

    THE DOCTOR catches on. Speaks before OBERON gets the

    chance to.

    THE DOCTOR

    So someone or something is controlling the Jokonoch!

    OBERONExactly!

    Beat.

    THE DOCTOR

    Oberon, this is very important. We just might be able

    to find the threat if I take a look at the victims,

    Have you got any bodies here, in the research lab.

    OBERON

    Well. In the preservation centre we do...

    THE DOCTOR

    Could you take me there?

    OBERON

    Well, I see no reason why not.

    THE DOCTOR

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    18/54

    Then what are doing stuck in a boring old lab. Lets

    go and have a bit of fun!

    THE DOCTOR starts to walk out of the lab. AMY,

    meanwhile, is chatting to SELLY

    OBERON

    Wrong way Doctor!

    OBERON indicates a small staircase leading to a lower

    level. THE DOCTOR heads for AMY.

    THE DOCTOR

    Amy, coming?

    AMY

    Where?

    THE DOCTOR

    The preservation centre...were going to have a poke

    at dead bodies.

    AMY looks disgusted.

    AMY

    Eurgh! But, yeah, Ill come.

    THE DOCTOR and AMY head off after OBERON. Who has

    disappeared below the staircase?

    INT.PRESERVATION CENTRE.DAY

    A powdery white room. Like some sort of operation

    theatre. Big light in the centre of the room. No

    windows. Sort of Claustrophobic. Various tables are

    scattered around the room, with large white sheets

    over what seems to be DEAD BODIES. THE DOCTOR, AMY,

    and OBERON emerge from a staircase in a corner of the

    room.

    OBERON

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    19/54

    Weve had to rebuild this place twice with

    exoshields inserted in the walls so the Jokonoch

    cant get in. They keep trying to steal the bodies!

    As you can see, the dead bodies are all kept here.

    THE DOCTOR stands by one of the tables. He indicates

    the cloth

    THE DOCTOR

    Can I...?

    OBERON

    Oh, go ahead.

    THE DOCTOR lifts the sheet to reveal the DEAD BODY of

    DOCTOR RATNYAKA. But its impossible to recognise

    him. His body, shrivelled up and bony. A sort of

    Brownish Grey colour. A horrific sight.

    AMY

    Oh My God! Thats a dead body. Thats horrible.

    OBERON

    That, was Doctor Ratnyaka, head of ichthyology hereat Enjongia.

    AMY

    Whats ichthyology?

    THE DOCTOR

    The study of Fish. Oberon, mind if I take a look?

    THE DOCTOR takes out a metal knife from his pocket.

    OBERON nods in confirmation. THE DOCTOR cuts open the

    body. Its blood pours out. But its mouldy, lumps of

    greenish blue blood.

    AMY

    I think Im gonna be sick

    THE DOCTOR

    Shhh Amy, Im working...this blood is old. Very old,

    do you know when this person was killed?

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    20/54

    OBERON

    Only yesterday. Him and his assistant, Vera, found

    dead in the ruins of his office.

    THE DOCTOR dips his finger in the blood and licks it.He winces in disgust.

    THE DOCTOR

    That is disgusting.... but helpful... its been at

    least 500 years since this blood has stopped

    travelling around the body.

    OBERON

    Well what does that mean?

    THE DOCTOR

    Somethings been speeding up Doctor Ratnyakas body

    clock. But for what...think...think...

    Suddenly, A SCIENTIST appears from the top of the

    stairs. She is panicking. She frantically runs

    towards OBERON.

    SCIENTISTProfessor! Its horrible sir. Its happened again!

    OBERON

    Calm down woman...whats happened?

    SCIENTIST

    Its Selly professor. She went down the underwater

    elevator to collect some research we sent off to the

    scanner, but, when we called for her she never

    replied.

    She indicates a walkie talkie in her hand.

    SCIENTIST

    So Annah went to the elevator to find her and,

    well...its gone. The whole elevator ripped off out

    of the building. We cant get a reading from Selly.We think shes been killed.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    21/54

    THE SCIENTIST starts to weep quietly. OBERON is

    speechless, and then...he plucks up the courage to

    talk

    OBERON

    There there, Ellae, Its fine. Its alright

    He hugs ELLAE. Who leaves, in tears. Then, turns to

    THE DOCTOR.

    OBERON

    How could this have happened? Selly! My Daughter...

    And OBERON cant hold it in. He begins to cry.

    OBERON

    And her body will be lost forever... theres no way

    down there now the elevators gone.

    THE DOCTOR and AMY stare solemnly.

    AMY

    Doctor, isnt there anything we can do?

    THE DOCTOR

    Im not sure.

    AMY

    We have to do something. Look at him doctor!

    OBERON is just standing there, weeping. THE DOCTOR

    looks. Painfully. He is reminded of something...

    THE DOCTOR

    Right, thats it. Im not going to have you stand

    there and cry. We are going to go down in the waters,

    find Sellys body, find whats causing these murders.

    And we are going to destroy whatever it is, off the

    face of the universe!

    OBERON and AMY stares at THE DOCTOR.

    22/54

    OBERON

    Doctor, we cant. Its much too dangerous. The

    Jokonoch arent themselves. They could kill you.

    THE DOCTOR

    Maybe. But I need to get down there anyway.

    Whatevers controlling these things is down at the

    bottom of the Valley. And the only way to stop this

    is if we go down there and find it.

    AMY

    But Doctor we dont know that...

    THE DOCTOR

    Oh dont we? Think ...Amy...Think... Back in that

    feeding tunnel. What did that sign say?

    CUT TO:

    INT.FEEDING TUNNEL.DAY

    CAMERA close up on the sign: AT 11:00 ALL FEEDING

    TUNNELS ARE TO BE DISINFECTED FROM ANY HARMFUL GERMS

    TO THE FISH. AT 12:00, THE JOKONOCH MUST BE

    AUTOMATICALLY FED FROM THE CONTROL ROOM. IT IS

    IMPORTANT TO BE IN THE CONTROL ROOM AT THIS POINT, AS

    THIS POINT. FOR THE FOOD FOR THE JOKONOCH ARE STORED

    IN THE FEEDING TUNNELS. AND THE FEEDING TUNNELS

    AUTOMATICALLY OPEN SO THE FISH CAN EAT. THE FISH DO

    EAT HUMANS.

    CUT BACK TO:

    INT. PRESERVATION CENTRE.DAY

    AMY, looking confused at THE DOCTOR. She doesnt

    remember

    THE DOCTOR

    It said that the fish eat humans.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    23/54

    Now, my screwdriver here tells me that this blood is

    at 1 degree Celsius. And that is the temperature of

    the ocean here in the Valley. Am I right?

    OBERON

    Why yes! Actually you are!

    THE DOCTOR turns serious.

    THE DOCTOR

    You said that the Jokonoch kept trying to steal the

    bodies.

    So, I conclude. The Jokonoch are basically cooking

    the bodies, by speeding up their their body clocks.

    Until theyre the right temperature. Then, they steal

    the bodies from here so they can have a good old

    feast at the bottom of the ocean floor!

    AMY looks horrified.

    AMY

    Seriously! Jellyfish are eating humans. Thats just

    sick!

    OBERON

    Doctor, if youre right. We need to go there and get

    Selly. Im not having those Jellyfish eat her!

    THE DOCTOR nods, hes far away...thinking...suddenly

    he grins at AMY and OBERON.

    THE DOCTOR

    Right then, Amy, Obe-Ron-Kenobi! Lets get diving.

    CUT TO:

    EXT.VIEWING PLATFORM. DAY.

    A large decking. 5 foot down is the ocean. A small

    ladder winding down into the water. In front, the

    open atmosphere. A burnt pink sky. Star Whales gently

    drifting through the sky. Singing softly. . THEDOCTOR, AMY, and OBERON. Enter. All with diving suits

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    24/54

    on. Helmets by their sides. AMY and THE DOCTOR

    chatting.

    AMY

    Obe-Ron-Kenobi?

    THE DOCTOR

    Yes!

    AMY

    I just knew you were into Star Wars...

    OBERON interrupts the two.

    OBEBRON

    Doctor, Miss Pond... good news and bad news. Weve

    installed microphones and speakers in the helmets

    so we can communicate once were under.

    AMY

    What about the Oxygen supply?

    OBERON

    Im afraid thats the bad news. We cant getsufficient levels of Oxygen needed to fit the

    amount of time we need. Once were under, we can

    only have 30 minutes until we run out.

    AMY

    But what if we run out before we get there?

    OBERON

    Well, well die!

    Everyone just stands there. Staring at each other,

    knowing of the challenge theyve got ahead of

    them. They know its not going to be easy.

    Suddenly, THE DOCTOR breaks the silence

    THE DOCTOR

    Well, its not the first time Ive been in a life

    and death situation. I say we go for it!

    OBERON slowly nods in agreement

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    25/54

    OBERON

    I would risk my life for Selly.

    AMY then nods too, she knows she has to do this. THE

    DOCTOR notices AMYS uncertainty and he calls outto comfort her.

    THE DOCTOR

    Amy, are you O.K

    AMY puts on her helmet

    AMY

    As O.K as Ill ever be.

    BEAT

    AMY

    Im fine, really. We need to do this, for Oberon.

    THE DOCTOR smiles at AMY. AMY grins back.

    AMY

    Were going intergalactic diving!

    THE DOCTOR

    I know!

    AMY starts to brighten up. THE DOCTOR turns to OBERON

    THE DOCTOR

    So professor! Anything extra we need to know?

    OBERON

    Yeah, whatever you do, stay away from the Jokonoch,

    even if they arent under control. Even if they

    wont suck the moisture from you, they can still

    sting you. Intentionally or unintentionally, and

    their stings are fatal.

    THE DOCTOR

    Cool Beans. Well, actually its not cool beans, but

    there you go.

    THE DOCTOR puts on his helmet, walks to the edge, andjumps into the water. Big Splash. Then, a pause.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    26/54

    Soon, AMY runs up to the edge. Big Jump...shes

    strangely enjoying this.

    AMY

    TALLEYHO!!

    A big Splash and shes under too. OBERON looks at the

    pink sun. Slowly setting behind the picture-esque

    mountain tops. A slight breeze runs through his

    thinning hair.

    OBERON

    Soon, Selly, Im coming to find you...

    He glances. Still for a second. Then...he walks

    to the edge. Small jump and...

    CUT TO:

    INT.OCEAN TANK.DUSK

    A wide open blue space. A few rocky structures here

    and there. But there are no plants. THE DOCTOR,

    OBERON and AMY are looking about, getting used tothierh surroundings.

    AMY

    Doctor, I can hardly see anything. Its just blue.

    With a few rocks. Which way do we go?

    OBERON

    The ruins will be down at the ocean floor. Through

    the valley gorge. Its a mile down though, so

    itll take us a while...

    AMY looks confused.

    AMY

    But, the water pressure will blow our heads off. We

    wont survive.

    THE DOCTOR looks at AMY.

    As if its obvious

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    27/54

    THE DOCTOR

    Its a differnt planet Amy. And its probably at

    least 200,000 years in your future. Its pretty

    likley that the diving suits will have

    precautions against water pressure. I mean, thisis an aquarium.

    AMY mutters under her breath.

    AMY

    I was only asking.

    THE DOCTOR hears her. Looks stunned. But decides to

    ignore her. He quickley changes the subject.

    THE DOCTOR

    Well... its time we get going.

    He looks at his watch which he wrapped around his

    diving suit.

    THE DOCTOR

    Its been a minuite. Every second not swimming is a

    second wasted, come on.

    THE DOCTOR starts swimming downwards. OBERON looks

    towards AMY. He talks with a slight annoyance in

    his voice

    OBERON

    Is he always like this... acting like hes boss.

    AMY looks at him. Suspiciosly. She doesnt like

    him...

    She just turns and swims to catch up with THE DOCTOR.

    OBERON sighs, and follows.

    CUT TO:

    INT. ABYSS LAIR.NIGHT

    . Far down at the bottom of the sea bed. Dark, andmysterious.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    28/54

    POV: an UNKOWN CREATURE, staring up from the bottom.

    Faintly, we see THE DOCTOR, AMY, and OBERON.

    Small specks, slowly moving high above. Something

    laughs. A cold, quiet, creepy laugh

    UNKOWN CREATURE

    Ha! Theyre coming to find me.They want to get me for

    the things Ive done. But I can see...oh... One

    of these people wont make it. The Bravest... ha!

    The one who thinks hell survive. The One whos

    Seen danger many a time. Theyll not find me.

    Not if I can help it. CALLING ALL JOKONOCH.

    LOCATE THE INVADERS. FIND THEM...AND DISPOSE OF

    THEM!

    CUT TO:

    Back to THE DOCTOR, AMY and OBERON. Swimming. Not

    saying a word. They dont want to waste time.All

    focused.

    Then a small, Bang. Not too loud. But loud enoough so

    that you could hear it through a helmet. THE

    DOCTOR and AMY jerk up. OBERON is still

    swimming.He hasnt noticed. AMY turns to THE

    DOCTOR, but she keeps swimming.

    AMY

    Doctor, what was that?

    THE DOCTOR

    I dont know. But it was coming from below.

    AMY

    The Jokonoch?

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    29/54

    THE DOCTOR

    Maybe. Look Amy, I need you to follow this

    instruction cause its very important. If

    whatever down there gets me or Oberon, you have

    to get out. If anything happens to any of us.Just get out. It could be too much to handle on

    your own.

    BEAT

    AMY

    Oh, come on Doctor, Ill be fine. And nothings gonna

    happen!

    THE DOCTOR

    I wouldnt be so sure...

    And then a big flash! Its starting.

    AMY

    Doctor the flash! The Jokonoch are coming!

    THE DOCTOR

    O.K now it starts. Oberon, hurry up!

    OBERON is laggin behind. THE DOCTOR and AMY stop.

    OBERON reaches them.

    THE DOCTOR

    Right, Oberon, we need you to defend yourself. The

    Jokonoch will be here soon.

    OBERON

    What? Why?

    Another flash! OBERON jumps

    OBERON

    What is that flashing?

    THE DOCTOR

    Its the Jokonoch. Somehow whenever theyre about to

    kill, it just happens.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    30/54

    From down below, a big group of JOKONOCH appear.

    Headng towards THE DOCTOR, AMY and OBERON. Heading

    closer and closer

    THE DOCTOR

    Alright, not much we can do,Ive left my screwdriver

    up on the surface, so were just gonna have to dodge

    them.

    OBERON

    OH no we dont!

    AMY and THE DOCTOR look at OBERON. He is holding a

    small PISTOL.

    OBERON

    I kept this in the suit pockets. Just incase of

    attack. If they get near me ill blow em up.

    THE DOCTOR

    NO! Oberon, thats not the way we do things, put the

    gun down.

    THE JOKONOCH are just getting nearer and nearer, but

    THE DOCTOR doesnt realise, as he turns to speak with

    OBERON. Another flash.

    AMY

    Doctor?

    THE DOCTOR holds up a finger, geusturing AMY to be

    quite. He doesnt look at her, still looking at

    OBERON

    THE DOCTOR

    Wait Amy... look. Violence is not how we resort to

    things. I know your angry that your daughter died. I

    can relate. So did mine. My whole species.

    While THE DOCTOR is speaking, OBERON is getting more

    and more angry, Flashes are coming and going at

    terrific rate, now. And OBERON cant hold it in anylonger.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    31/54

    OBERON

    Oh, cant you just shut up! With your pep talks, when

    you really just want to impress me!

    THE DOCTOR

    ...I was only trying to help...

    OBERON

    OH! And look at him now, When someones inferior to

    him hes speechless.

    While OBERON speaks, A Jokonoch creeps up behind him.

    THE DOCTOR sees, yet stays calm. He just waits. And

    then...

    THE DOCTOR

    Oberon, just one thing. All this time, youve been

    Rabbiting on. What you havent realised is, is that

    theres a Jokonoch behind you...

    And OBERON turns around. He screams! As one big flash

    happens he gets stung. OBERON falls down through the

    water into the unkown. THE JOKONOCH slowly drift

    away. As if theyve got what they were looking for.

    THE DOCTOR and AMY are still. Shocked, they look at

    eachother... then...

    AMY

    Well... I didnt like him much anyway... I guess its

    just you and me now.

    THE DOCTOR still doesnt talk. Hes hurt at what

    OBERON said to him.

    THE DOCTOR

    Lets carry on.

    They keep on swimming.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    32/54

    CUT TO:

    INT.ABYSS LAIR.NIGHT

    A huge. Rocky cave like the size of a cathedral. An

    underwater shrine. Musky sea bed covered with dull

    seaweed. What looks like a gigantic rock, buried into

    the ground, is sprerad accros a section of it. Its

    big. At least the size of a tennis court.

    OBERON falls down and hits the seabed. Bubbles fly

    out evreywhere. He opens his eyes.

    OBERON

    Im alive! How can I be alive? Those Jokonoch stung

    me!

    A subtle bang! OBERON jerks up.

    OBERONWhat now?

    OBERON listens, but nothing...

    OBERON

    Nothing...how odd. Id better try and find Selly. Im

    at the bottom of the sea, so she should be somewhere

    nearby.

    Another bang! OBERON definetly hears it ths time.

    OBERON

    Alright! I know someones there. Show yourself!

    No answer. OBERON tries to make what ever made the

    noise symaptise with him.

    OBERON

    Ive lost my daughter, she could be dead...plese,show yourself.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    33/54

    Suddennly, a rasping, hissing female voice is heard.

    The voice of the UNKOWN CREATURE.

    UNKOWN CREATURE

    Oh, alright, then Im the one who killed Selly! Who

    killed evreyone here!And if its Selly you came to

    find, then thats easy.

    And suddenly, the frail body of SELLY is teleported

    next to OBERON.

    OBERON gasps!

    OBERON

    Selly! SELLY!

    OBERON touches his daughters face. Tears in his eyes.

    OBERON

    How? Why did you do this?

    UNKOWN CREATURE

    All in good time. Now. I havent just summoned you to

    have a nice chat, oh no!

    The UNKNOWN CREATURE giggles, slyly.

    UNKOWN CREATURE

    I need you to help me with my plan.

    OBERON, slightly reluctantly, asks a question.

    OBERON

    And what plan might that be?

    UNKOWN CREATURE

    Again, all in good time. Now im going to reveal

    myself to you. Try not to scream.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    34/54

    And the large rock-like thing starts to move. CAMERA

    behind the figure. The UNKOWN CREATURE, gets bigger

    and bigger and bigger...

    OBERON screams.

    CUT TO:

    INT.GORGE.NIGHT

    The blue darkens, and the rock walls form a large

    gorge. THE DOCTOR and AMY are swimming towards it.

    THE DOCTOR

    Amy, were at the gorge.

    AMY

    Yes, doctor, I can see that.

    THE DOCTOR

    Right. But I stand by what I said. If I get hurt,

    leave

    He Checks his watch

    THE DOCTOR

    We have 10 minuites to do this. And I cant have you

    getting hurt. I need to keep you safe.

    AMY

    Whatever, come on.

    She pulls his arm and they start swimming into the

    gorge. The water gets darker. Untill its just black.

    AMY

    Doctor, its so dark down here.

    THE DOCTOR

    Oh! Im prepared. Here, I brought a gravity globe.

    And...there!

    THE DOCTOR takes out a GRAVITY GLOBE. He taps it a

    couple of times and it lights up. He lets it hang inthe water. The light reveals that the gorge has been

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    35/54

    carved into a giant cavern. Right on the floor, at

    the centre of the seabed. Far below, is SELLY, just

    lying there. Alone.

    AMYDoctor, its Selly!

    THE DOCTOR

    We need to get her, quickly. Even if her fathers

    dead, we should bring her back to the surface...

    THE DOCTOR and AMY swim far down so theyre by SELLY.

    THE DOCTOR

    Amy, if you should get her back up. I dont feel

    comfortable here. Somthings not right.

    AMY nodds, she doesnt feel comfortable either.

    AMY

    Yeah

    AMY is just about to take SELLY when OBERON appears

    from a large crack in the rock face.

    OBERON

    NO!! Leave Selly alone.

    THE DOCTOR

    Oberon!

    AMY is annoyed. She shouts out, sarcastcally.

    AMY

    Oh great! Hes alive!

    OBERON hears. But merley takes it as a funny joke.

    OBERON

    Thank you for your observation Miss Pond.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    36/54

    I almost liked you when I met you. But after we got

    in the water, I realised just how impossible it is

    for you to be liked!

    AMYShut it Gandalf!

    OBERON ignores her.

    OBERON

    I rest my case. But, I no longer require any of your

    help. I can bring Selly back to life. With the person

    who killed her. Who killed all the people here. Come

    on Doctor. Come and see my new friend.

    AMY

    New friend. Id like to see that! Go on then, show us

    your new friend

    OBERON indicates the large crack from where he came.AMY suddenly looks scared. She remembers something.

    OBERON

    Shes in there.

    AMY

    Doctor is that...?

    THE DOCTOR knows what shes talking about. He

    interrupts her.

    THE DOCTOR

    I dont think so, we wiped it out. It couldnt

    possibly be here.

    OBERON

    What in gods name are you on about? My mistress is

    through here.

    AMY laughs.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    37/54

    AMY

    OHHHH! So shes not your friend. Shes your mistress

    youre her servant!

    Suddenly, the UNKOWN CREATURES voice is heard from

    inside that crack.

    UNKOWN CREATURE

    Doctor?

    THE DOCTOR instantly turns round. He knows that

    voice.

    THE DOCTOR

    It cant be.

    AMY

    Who is it?

    THE DOCTOR

    That voice sounds like Queen Maryae.

    AMYAnd whos that?

    THE DOCTOR

    I should have known.

    Queen Maryae, Amy, Queen Maryae is the Queen of the

    Jokonoch. The first member of the Jokonoch species.

    She was broadcast all over the universe when you

    humans invaded their planet. Some big news report on

    the peace between the Jokonoch and the humans

    Shes lived for thousands of years. Some say shes

    immortal... I visited her planet once. I fought her,

    then, the only one of her kind. When we came here I

    thought her race must have got better. Maybe become

    nobler. More, respectable. But no. There just as

    SHABBY AS EVER!

    AMY

    But why would she be doing this. I mean, I thoughtthe humans and the Jokonoch got on.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    38/54

    THE DOCTOR

    They did. So we need to find out why The Jokonoch are

    killing people.

    OBERON looks at THE DOCTOR and AMY. Before he gets a

    chance to speak. QUEEN MARYAE beckons from within the

    crack.

    QUEEN MARYAE

    Oh Good-o! You recognise me. As I recognise you, from

    the forgotten age of Desabae, do you remember. Those

    stars, you put them out. One by one. You left me out

    in the cold of the horse head nebula. I nearly died.

    But then, I never die. And I never will.

    THE DOCTOR stares in horror. AMY looks at him, shes

    never seen him this scared before.

    THE DOCTOR

    Thats it, I need to take a look at this queen.

    And he swims through the crack. AMY goes after him

    CUT TO:

    INT.ABYSS LAIR.NIGT

    THE DOCTOR and AMY enter. OBERON follows after them,

    slowly. THE DOCTOR stares up at QUEEN MARYAE.

    A Huge jellyfish. (Almost as big as the rocky cavern.

    At least the size of a double Decker bus) in which

    she is in. And yet, despite her size she looks

    frail. Shrivelled up, and slumped against the rock

    walls.

    THE DOCTOR

    Oh..! Changed a bit since I saw you last! Bit

    smaller, bit older. More fragile.

    AMY stares up too. She is in awe!

    AMY

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    39/54

    Doctor, she looks like shes dying, cant we help

    her?

    THE DOCTOR

    Amy, this person ordered the murder of Selly. Of all

    the people who died here. I cant just go and help

    her without doing something.

    THE DOCTOR heads for QUEEN MARYAE.

    THE DOCTOR

    Right then Queenie, before we get started on the

    consequences, what turned you to killing? This is a

    whole planet teaming with the human race.

    A Marvellous, brilliant species. And you were killing

    them. What for? What was the point?

    QUEEN MARYAE

    We are an endangered species, Doctor.

    THE DOCTOR

    Yeah, got that bit from the leaflet thanks. But

    whats that got to do with it?

    QUEEN MARYAE

    And who do you think made us endangered?

    THE DOCTOR

    You tell me!

    QUEEN MARYAE sighs a deep sigh.

    QUEEN MARYAE

    Doctor, when the humans came to our world. They shot

    us. They hunted us down.

    THE DOCTOR

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    40/54

    No, because all those news reports said you lived in

    harmony with the humans.

    QUEEN MARYAE

    Hmmm, Its no surprise who wrote them then!

    All this time, AMY has been listening hard

    AMY

    Of Course!

    THE DOCTOR looks at Amy.

    THE DOCTOR

    What?

    AMY

    Theyre doing this for revenge. We invaded their

    world. We killed some of them. They probably hate

    being here in this aquarium. Being stared at, time

    and time again. Like a Zoo. It must be torture.

    AMY pauses, she thinks. She can almost sympathise the

    queen.

    AMY

    Now theyve come to give us a taste of their own

    medicine.

    QUEEN MARYAE

    Oh, you chose this one well. She can work things out.

    Empathise. She could be of use to us. Come over here,

    girl. You dont want to be with that doctor over

    there. Come and help me, and I can show you all of

    the universe

    AMY

    Um...no thanks. Ive got that already

    She glances at THE DOCTOR

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    41/54

    AMY

    But, one thing I dont get though. Why were you

    eating the humans? What was that for?

    QUEEN MARYAE

    Oh, thats all part of our plan

    THE DOCTOR interrupts

    THE DOCTOR

    What plan?

    QUEEN MARYAE

    Well, oh alright, Ill tell you.

    Im not feeding the Jokonoch; Im replacing their

    blood with the human blood from the bodies. If the

    Jokonoch pass as humanoids to the basic security

    system, then we have access to the planets emergency

    advances. One of which is Detonation. Were planning

    on blowing up the planet. I have set a delta field

    around myself. I will fly safely through the

    explosion. Not even scratched.

    AMY and THE DOCTOR look at each other in shock.

    THE DOCTOR

    You what? Destroy that planet. No... Not while Im

    around. Because you see. Thats what I do... if you

    remember, I save planets. And Im not gonna let my

    record of a lifetime be broken. Not today. You hear

    me out. This planet is not gonna change today. Its

    going to sit in the sky. As stunning as ever. With or

    without the Jokonoch on it.

    AMY

    Whens this destroy the planet thing due to happen?

    QUEEN MARYAE

    But I really dont want to spoil you for the big

    show!

    AMY

    42/54

    Go on, you cant even resist a little teaser?

    QUEEN MARYAE

    Oh, go on then. Probably in about... two minutes.

    THE DOCTOR looks up in horror

    QUEEN MARYAE

    Yes, Doctor. As we speak, The Jokonoch are advancing

    to the security system. You cant exactly stop me.

    And if you try. Oberon will stop you.

    OBERON speaks up

    THE DOCTOR

    Oberon stops this! She wont save Selly. No one can

    bring the dead back to life. Just hope over to Amy

    and I. Maryaes not safe.

    OBERONBut Doctor, If I transfer my blood to the Jokonoch,

    like she asked me, Queen Maryae promises Selly and I

    the defeat of Olympia.

    THE DOCTOR stares at OBERON.

    THE DOCTOR

    What? Olympia!? Thats not real. Its just one of

    those things parents make up to scare the children.

    QUEEN MARYAE intrudes.

    QUEEN MARYAE

    But you dont know, do you! You havent yet been

    there! Oh, Doctor, you have yet to stare hell in the

    eye. Olympia is real. It is coming. The secrets that

    which do lie in the garden of eternity will be

    unlocked. And you and Miss Pond had better be ready.

    AMY

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    43/54

    Doctor, what does she mean, whets Olympia?

    THE DOCTOR just looks ahead. Towards QUEEN MARYAE

    hes worried. And then...

    THE DOCTOR

    Shhh! Did you hear that Amy, did you hear that?

    AMY

    Yeah, like a sort of, gasping.

    OBERON

    Yeah I heard it.

    QUEEN MARYAE

    What? I didnt hear a thing...

    THE DOCTOR stands thinking for a minute. He works it

    out!

    THE DOCTOR

    Oh No!

    AMYWhat?

    THE DOCTOR

    All the time weve been stuck down here. Weve both

    forgotten one very important thing

    AMY

    Whats that?

    THE DOCTOR

    That noise. Its the sound the oxygen tube makes when

    it starts to run out of air...

    AMY is horrified. She starts panicking, yet again.

    AMY

    What? Well.. Were gonna die! Lets get out.

    OBERON

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    44/54

    I am not dying today. Sorry your majesty, but, I have

    to save myself.

    AMY

    Never mind about you. Doctor weve got to go.

    THE DOCTOR

    Amy, you go up. Im a time Lord. We can hold our

    breaths for five minutes longer than humans.

    AMY looks at THE DOCTOR angrily. But she knows that

    he needs to stay there. She swims out of the cavern.

    OBERON follows.

    CUT TO:

    INT. TRENCH.NIGHT

    AMY and OBERON shoot up out of the trench. AMY in

    front. OBERON lagging behind.

    CUT TO:

    INT.ABBYS LAIR.NIGHTTHE DOCTOR is left alone with QUEEN MARYAE, as he

    talks. He struggles to breathe more and more.

    THE DOCTOR

    So... Whats with the flashing lights then? Ive

    never seen that sort of warning when Jokonoch kill.

    Where did that come from?

    QUEEN MARYAE

    We dont know. After we were stolen from our planet

    and taken here. We were given the gift of the flash.

    It was none of our concern to ask where it came from.

    It is not our technology.

    THE DOCTOR looks concerned.

    BEAT

    THE DOCTOR

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    45/54

    Right. Anyway, Im gonna have to give you one chance

    to save yourself. Please. Stop!

    QUEEN MARYAE

    And just why would I want to do that?The humans killed us. And when we were taken to this

    planet we knew we had to do something. This is our

    only chance to set things right. Our only chance to

    avenge our lost ones.

    THE DOCTOR is touched. He looks sympathetically at

    QUEEN MARYAE. He shakes his head, back on track.

    THE DOCTOR

    No! If youre not gonna end this then Ill have to.

    CUT TO:

    INT.OCEAN TANK.NIGHT

    AMY and OBERON are swimming faster than ever now. AMY

    has run out of air. Her face turning pale blue. She

    knows shes gonna die

    CUT TO:

    INT.ABYYS LAIR.NIGHT

    QUEEN MARYAE

    And just how will you do that?

    THE DOCTOR thinks. He is almost stuck. Then...

    A large bang! And then a holographic video screen

    pops out in the water. Slowly bobbing. On it, the

    JOKONOCH are floating beside a large control panel.

    Various wires hanging out in different places. A

    small compartment, like a sealed door, is slap bang

    in the centre. QUEEN MARYAE smiles.

    QUEEN MARYAE

    You see, doctor. The Jokonoch just need to open the

    compartment pod. And they will have access to thedetonation settings. In about one minute, this planet

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    46/54

    will be no more. So I repeat. How will you save the

    day?

    THE DOCTOR

    I know how. Theres always been a way. But I neverthought it would come to this.

    THE DOCTOR looks solemn. He knows what he has to do.

    CUT TO:

    INT.OCEAN TANK.NIGHT

    AMY nearly suffocating, OBERON behind her. Theyre

    both so close. So Very close to the surface. Nearly

    there. And...

    CUT TO:

    EXT. VIEWING PLATFORM.DAY

    AMYs head reaches the surface. She pops up. Gasping

    for breath. She whips off her helmet and takes in a

    breath of air. She slowly calms down and waits forOBERON. Nothing. AMY looks worried. She dives back

    down, no helmet.

    CUT TO:

    INT.OCEAN TANK.NIGHT

    AMY sees OBERON. Slowly drifting down. Hes not made

    it.

    AMY doesnt want to do this. But she knows she has

    to. She grabs OBERONs body and brings him up with

    him. To the surface

    CUT TO:

    INT.ABYYS LAIR.NIGHT

    THE DOCTOR

    I cant save them. The Jokonoch are nearly there, Iwont have enough time to stop them.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    47/54

    QUEEN MARYAE

    And so, this planet will burn!

    THE DOCTORYeah... but, what is that large looking button on the

    side of this cave.

    THE DOCTOR points to a large button, imprinted on it

    are the words DELTA FIELD.

    QUEEN MARYAE

    Thats nothing. Dont touch that.

    THE DOCTOR

    Queen Maryae. If that says the words Delta field I

    think its very likely that that is the button that

    turns on and off the delta field which you said would

    protect you from the explosion. What do you think I

    would do if I was standing next to that button?

    QUEEN MARYAELet me guess. Turn it off.

    THE DOCTOR

    Precisely, and oh, look! I am standing right next to

    the button. Im really, very sorry. Maryae. But, you

    too are going to die. Along with the whole of this

    planet.

    QUEEN MARYAE is in horror! She realises her mistake.

    QUEEN MARYAE

    No...

    CUT TO:

    EXT.VIEWING PLATFORM.NIGHT

    OBERONs body lies flat against on the floor of theviewing platform. AMY who has the diving suit off-

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    48/54

    now sprints out of the room. She is focused on saving

    everyone.

    CUT TO:

    INT.ABYSS LAIR.NIGHT

    THE DOCTOR slams his fist down on the button.

    He looks up at Queen Maryae. He knows she wont have

    time to turn the button back on. He looks at his

    watch.

    THE DOCTOR

    Thirty seconds. Theres just one thing left to do.

    THE DOCTOR puts his finger to a speaker implanted in

    his helmet.

    CUT TO:

    INT. VALLEY LAB.NIGHT

    SCIENTISTS are working. All hustle and bustle. AMYruns in. She runs up to ELLAE

    AMY

    Do you know where I can find the Emergency advances?

    ELLAE opens her mouth but a sound interrupts.

    Its THE DOCTORS voice, OOV. Hes warning them of

    something.

    THE DOCTOR

    Alright, Amy, I know you can hear me, and I need you

    to do something. I cant stop the Jokonoch; theyre

    too far away for me to do anything. But, Ive turned

    off the queens delta field. She wont be protected.

    AMY is anticipating. She knows in the back of her

    mind what THE DOCTORs going to say.

    THE DOCTOR

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    49/54

    This planet is going to go. In about twenty seconds.

    So um basically. Brace yourselves.

    THE DOCTORs voice ends. AMY looks around in shock.

    She isnt ready.

    AMY

    Right. EVREYONE HOLD ONTO SOMETHING. Were going

    up...

    The Scientists all grab onto something. They arent

    ready either. AMY is standing next to ELLAE. She is

    crying.

    AMY

    Its O.K, You might not die. Well go through this

    together, eh?

    ELLAE looks up at AMY. Scared.

    ELLAEIts not that.

    I know who you are. Amy Pond. I saw you in the garden

    of Eternity. What are you? How could you do that to

    us...?

    AMY looks at ELLAE. Frightened.

    BEAT

    Then, AMY turns away from ELLAE and speaks up.

    AMY

    Ready?

    And then...

    CUT TO:

    EXT.FX SHOT.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    50/54

    The beautiful Blue Planet which is hanging in the sky

    suddenly explodes. Masses of rock fly all over. Water

    shoots everywhere,

    Suddenly. AMY is drifting slowly around. Scarred.Bruised. Her face is half burned. Blacky brownish.

    But she is still alive. She is searching for the

    TARDIS. Or THE DOCTOR.

    Far off, THE DOCTOR is drifting too. He has a few

    scratches. On his face. The glass from his helmet

    shattered. But, hes more or less unharmed. He looks

    around him. At all the destruction he caused. Tears

    in his eyes.

    And then... he sees the TARDIS. Dented. Paint worn

    out to reveal a brownish colour. It looks burnt and

    mistreated.

    THE DOCTOR gives a sad smile. And he drifts in the

    direction of his machine. He opens the door and

    clambers into it.

    CUT TO:

    INT.TARDIS INTERIOR.

    THE DOCTOR slams the door shut. He walks over to the

    TARDIS console. Soaking wet. He turns on the engine

    and fiddles with the controls on the console.

    CUT TO:

    EXT.FX SHOT.

    AMY still drifting. Looking around at all the

    screaming. She sees OBERON floating. Dead. She looks

    painfully at him. He wasnt nice to her. But he

    didnt deserve to die.

    Then, THE TARDIS spins into view. Amy gives a smile.

    But it hurts her face. So she stops.

    THE TARDIS doors open. And THE DOCTOR stands there.

    Looking at AMY sadly.

    AMY makes her way to the TARDIS and climbs in. Sheshuts the doors.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    51/54

    CUT TO:

    INT.TARDIS INTERIOR.

    THE DOCTOR gives AMY a big hug. A tear runs down

    AMYs face. THE DOCTOR looks at her.

    THE DOCTOR

    We need to get you cleaned up...

    AMY smiles. THE DOCTOR runs up the stairs and out of

    sight.

    CUT TO:

    INT.TARDIS CUPBOARD.

    A small circular cupboard. Large roundels encircle

    the room, A small green first aid box lies on the

    floor amidst other clutter.

    THE DOCTOR enters. Grabs the box and leaves.

    CUT TO:

    INT.TARDIS INTERIOR.

    THE DOCTOR runs back to AMY with the green box.

    THE DOCTOR

    I knew I had this somewhere. Should fix up things a

    little.

    And he opens up the green box. Hordes of small yellow

    dots, like fireflies spread out around the room. They

    are NANOGENES.

    THE DOCTOR

    Nanogenes! For so Small, robots, which can mend any

    damaged cell in anybody in the universe. Go on then.

    Attend to her.

    THE NANOGENES fly to AMY. And cover her face. A fewseconds later she emerges. As good as new.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    52/54

    AMY

    Thank you.

    AMY still has tears in her eyes. She goes to theTARDIS and opens the door. Outside. Bodies float

    around, dead. Surviving star whales sing whislt A

    couple of survivors scream for help.

    AMY

    But why didnt you know. I mean, youve been here

    before. You know your history. So why didnt you know

    this planet would be destroyed.

    THE DOCTOR

    Time can be rewritten. This timeline wasnt fixed.

    Anything could happen...

    AMY looks out. She sees QUEEN MARYAE lying on a slab

    of rock. Dying.

    AMY

    Doctor look!

    THE DOCTOR runs to the door and sees QUEEN MARYAE.

    Slight compassion in his eyes.

    AMY

    Doctor she could just about fit in here. You said

    you have a swimming pool. Couldnt we help her and

    keep her there...

    THE DOCTOR nods. He shouts to QUEEN MARYAE

    THE DOCTOR

    Maryae. I can save you. You want to live, just hop in

    here. You can live your life again. A new Jokonoch.

    QUEEN MARYAE laughs a slow. Painful laugh.

    QUEEN MARYAE

    And why would I want to come with you?

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    53/54

    Doctor, I am dying. Leave me to it. And as you go

    frolicking about the universe just think about us.

    The race you killed. Our species will go down in

    books. And those books will talk of how a travelling

    doctor made us extinct.You say you save planets, doctor. But what of this

    one? You could have saved it. You should have. And if

    you look out. Youll see all those races, burning

    because of you. All because he couldnt save that

    planet.

    THE DOCTOR is getting angry. He feels very guilty of

    what he let happen. As QUEEN MARYAE finally stills

    for the last time. AMY shuts the door for him.

    AMY

    Dont listen to her. It wasnt possible to save them.

    Everyone makes mistakes.

    THE DOCTOR

    Yeah, but I still let it happen. If Id of just been

    earlier, I might have had a chance...

    THE DOCTOR leans against the TARDIS console. AMY sits

    on the car seat.

    AMY

    Doctor, you cant let it get to you.

    THE DOCTOR just looks at AMY, he is very sad.

    AMY

    Not meaning to change the subject, but back in the

    science lab. That scientist. Said she knew who I was.

    She said something about a garden of Eternity...

    And back in that cave. Queen Maryae said something

    about Olympia, doctor what did she mean? Whats

    Olympia

    THE DOCTOR knows. But he doesnt want to say.

  • 8/9/2019 DOCTOR WHO Valley of the Deep

    54/54

    THE DOCTOR

    I dont know.

    And he walks around the console, slams down a lever.

    CUT TO:

    INT.FX SHOT.

    Amongst the lumps of rock that was once Enjongia. The

    TARDIS is floating. Whilst it dematerialises. The

    Nanogenes twist around it. Fixing it. Once gone.

    The CAMERA pans out. To show the scale of the

    explosion. All these lumps of rock floating around.

    Hoards of different fish dying. Other tourists

    drifting, dead. Star Whales singing a sad song of

    despair.

    As the song continues QUEEN MARYAE OOV. narrates

    the final lines.

    QUEEN MARYAE

    And so, The Doctor carried on. Not daring to look

    back. But all who died here, hope that he hangs hishead in shame. For his battle is not yet won.

    Olympia is coming. And we all know what that will

    bring, death upon the whole of the universe.

    End of episode 1.
