Length: 2 episodes, 25 minutes each

Rumours of a ghostly nun lead Sarah Jane, Luke and Clyde to the Lavender Lawns retirement home. There, Luke makes the acquaintance of dotty old Bea Nelson-Stanley. But Bea has secrets of her own, and one of them is an alien talisman she has been hiding for decades, and now entrusts to Luke's care. The talisman is actually the key to a portal leading to the planet of the Gorgons - the infamous monsters of Greek myth with the power to turn men into stone - and the nuns who serve the last Gorgon on Earth will stop at nothing to get it back.
