The Doctor and Donna visit the alien leisure planet, Midnight.


Synopsis

A sapphire waterfall on the planet Midnight: an enormous glacier reaches the cliffs of Oblivion, and then shatters into sapphires, falling a hundred thousand feet into a crystal ravine. But Donna would rather lie back and sunbathe at Lesiure Palace, so The Doctor boards the Crusader 50 shuttle bus alone. Upon the bus He meets many people such as Sky Silvestry, a business women in her 40's, the shambolic Professor Hobbs and a nice couple on their holiday. But then it starts. The knocking. The knock-knock-knocking on the outside of the bus.

  • The Doctor will disappear at the end of the episode leading onto Turn Left which is the Doctor lite episode. This is not true as the TARDIS visits the planet Shan Shen in Turn Left.
  • Some of the episode will be in a small cabin, like in Gridlock. Confirmed in the Trailer.
  • It will include a plane or spaceship crash (as shown in trailer). It is not a plane or spaceship but a shuttle bus.
  • This episode focuses on the Doctor and he is scared by the knocking on the wall.
  • Macra will return in this episode.
