(This is a complete transcript of Doctor Who Series 7 Episode 6 : The Snowmen. I thank Tardisblue.net for hosting streams of this episode. Happy Holidays! I hope fellow Whovians find the transcript useful.)
(Snow is falling to earth from far higher than any clouds float, from space. As it falls, a few of the snowflakes float close to the camera and gnash their teeth at it.)

(We see the large, snow-covered yard with a single tree in the center. Overlaid on the snow, on our screens, is the date “England 1842”. A matronly WOMAN addresses a young BOY, who is building a SNOWMAN.)
WOMAN:
Walter, don't you want to go and play with the other boys and girls?
They're very nice.
WALTER:
I don't need anyone else.
WOMAN (to the awkwardly staid MAN who has come out of the building and over to her):
He never talks to anyone!
He's so alone!
It's not right!
It's not healthy!
(The WOMAN and MAN go back inside.)
WALTER (to the SNOWMAN):
I don't want to talk to them.
They're silly.
VOICE:
They're silly.
(WALTER looks around, but no-one is nearby.)
VOICE (coming from the SNOWMAN):
Don't talk to them. They're silly.
(WALTER runs away from the SNOWMAN, but pauses when it speaks to him again):
SNOWMAN:
Don't need anyone else...
(WALTER cautiously re-approaches the SNOWMAN.)
SNOWMAN:
I can help you.
WALTER:
How?
(WALTER'S childish face fades into the stern face of an OLD MAN in a tophat, standing somewhere dim. Over the screen, we see the words “50 Years Later”.
Various figures are working on snowmen, either collecting snow from them or adding snow to it, into or from glass jars.)
