A fugitive from genocidal soldiers hides in a group of alien tourists visiting 1950's Earth.

For a story that's only three episodes long, there's a surprising amount of time spent stalling. And for a story that spends a lot of time stalling, there's surprisingly little time spent explaining the plot or establishing characters. Everyone, including characters who couldn't possibly have any idea what's going on, just seems to understand everything that's happening, and that's going to happen, show more right from the start (while the audience can only hope to piece it together afterward). show less
Cybermen vs. Jacobean time-travelers vs. Nazis, plus a lot of other stuff.

It's like they pulled a dozen random words and phrases out of a hat and called it a plot. It moves quickly, though, and there's some action and humor.
