Class Episode 1:
For Tonight We Might Die

Plot

A series of disappearances from Coal Hill Academy seems to coincide with the arrival of Miss Quill and Charlie. Tanya nearly becomes the latest victim when a shadow comes alive in her room, while Ram watches helplessly via webcam. Then April is attacked by Corakinus, leader of the Shadow Kin. She is saved by Charlie, who reveals that he and Miss Quill are aliens; they are being hunted by the Shadow Kin and have been hidden at Coal Hill by the Doctor. But April now has a strange connection to Corakinus, and she realises that he plans to seize Charlie in a devastating invasion of Coal Hill at the autumn prom.
