| - After helping Inspector Lestrade solve "the case of the unsuitable suitor" and stop the evil Professor Janus getting married (!), the Tenth Doctor and Rose leave to catch a cab to Waterloo, boat train to Paris and a night at Le Moulin Rouge. Their journey, however, is interrupted immediately. A cloud of vampire bats block the sun, congregating above the Royal Lyceum Theatre. Following the bats, the Doctor and Rose's timely arrival stops a young girl from being attacked by a bat. Yet all is not as it seems. The theatre is rehearsing for Bram Stoker's new production — Dracula. Bram is supported and assisted by his wife Florence, who warns her husband that the descendant of the real Count Dracula has arrived from Transylvania. Furious that his and his family's name is being wrongfully misrepresented, he arrives intent on exacting his revenge on the writer by killing him. Florence saves her husband from Dracula, revealing herself as a vampire; she had been bitten some twenty years earlier by Oscar Wilde, who is currently serving a sentence at Reading Gaol. For twenty years Florence had lived on a diet of small cats and mammals. Bram has protected and supported his wife as she has him. The Doctor identifies this type of vampirism as an alien disease, a virus strain, and offers to help. To save Florence (and the kittens), the Doctor must first find a cure for Oscar. With Rose, he heads to Reading Gaol.
