And the Monk? Once he knows who else is on the scene, he'll be glad just to stay alive...

Worldbuilding
- Missy uses her vortex manipulator to arrive in England.
- The Monk hides King Henry VIII in the Zero Room of his TARDIS.
- Following the Time War, Reapers, Chronovores and, more generally, paradox eaters run wild.
- The Monk has an organ player anachronistically play Mendelssohn's "Wedding March" while Missy walks down the aisle.
- The Monk knows about all of the renegade Time Lords, and he recognises Missy as an incarnation of the Master.
- According to Missy, Henry VIII composed "Greensleeves". When she criticises the Monk for not knowing this when questioned by Catherine, he says he "didn't expect a pub quiz".
Notes
- This story's title is an obvious play at the famous mnemonic of the fates of King Henry VIII's wives: "Divorced, beheaded, died; divorced, beheaded, survived"

- When Missy strands him in the past, the Monk refers to how he was stranded in 1066. (TV: The Time Meddler)
