  • The Doctor, Amy Pond and Rory Williams arrive on the planet Velgris, a planet 40% covered in fruit trees which produce a different fruit every week. The native Velgors are singing to the trees in praise of that week's harvest. Suddenly their peaceful chants are interrupted and the sound becomes distorted. The Doctor discovers finds a remote-controlled device. The distortion causes the trees to bear mutated fruit that creates something new. The "fruit" calls itself the Berrus and declared the planet selected for clearance and reseeding and the natives for consumption. The chanting is stopped while the Doctor tries to decode the signal and re-programme the device causing the distortion. The new fruits round up the Velgors, knocking down trees to use as firewood. Seven and a half minutes later a new broadcast sees the orchard overrun with new fruits. They drop like glove from the trees, land on and covering the invading fruits. Unable to identify who left the device in the first place, the Doctor, Amy and Rory leave with the hope that one failed invasion attempt will be enough.
