Description
"Oh, you are beautiful! No really, you are, you're gorgeous! Space-age clockwork, I love it, I've got chills! Listen, I mean this from the heart- and by the way, count those- it would be a crime, it would be an act of vandalism to disassemble you. But that won't stop me." - The DoctorThe Clockwork Repair Droids were androids that served on the SS Madame de Pompadour.

They used all the crew members' body parts; according to the Tenth Doctor "apparently, nobody told them the crew wasn't on the menu". The last part they needed was a brain for their command circuit, and they believed that only a thirty-seven-year-old brain (the same age of their ship) would work. They modified the ship's quantum drive to open many time windows to 18th century France and passed through it at various moments of Madame de Pompadour's life, attempting to find her in her thirty-seventh year. The Tenth Doctor defeated them by disconnecting the time window that led back to their ship. With no purpose, they shut down...

D: Sorry!I know this is really lagged buuut: They where from 10's (David Tennant's) run. The name of the episode was called "Girl in the Fireplace" and it focused heavily around Madame de Pompadour and the Clockwork Droids (and their special "connection" o: ) I hope that helped ;.;
