This is really Echo and the Bunnymen!
After the meandering mess of Paradise Towers, we get a more coherent, tighter, shorter story. For the first time in decades, we get a 3 episode story! And it actually works better than most 4 part stories we've had over the year.
The Doctor and Mel somehow hook up with a group of vacationing aliens heading to a Wales England 1959 holiday camp. Little do they know that a queen with egg is flying a bad, bad man stows away on their trip and hides on Earth. The bad, bad man and his bunnymen pursue.
Meanwhile, human boy falls in love with alien queen and his baby hatches and grows to pre-teenhood in 3 episodes. The hapless gal pal, who's in love with the human boy, get a motorcycle as a consolation prize and could have been the new companion in the TARDIS. Mel also wear denim during the course of the story. Good times.
All in all, a fun episode and a great penultimate story for Miss Melanie Jane Bush.
