'''''{{StoryTitle}}''''' was the fifth episode of the [[series 9 (Doctor Who)|ninth series]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' produced by [[BBC Wales]]. | |||
The story is notable because it reveals the reason as to why the [[Twelfth Doctor]] regenerated with the same appearance as [[Lobus Caecilius]]; to remind himself to, no matter how impossible it seemed, always save someone, as he had saved Caecilius in his [[Tenth Doctor|tenth incarnation]]. | |||
It also revisited the idea of something alien taking over a pre-historic era by impersonating an important figure. The concept was last seen in ''[[Robot of Sherwood (TV story)|Robot of Sherwood]]''. | |||

The Girl Who Died was the fifth episode of the ninth series of Doctor Who produced by BBC Wales.
The story is notable because it reveals the reason as to why the Twelfth Doctor regenerated with the same appearance as Lobus Caecilius; to remind himself to, no matter how impossible it seemed, always save someone, as he had saved Caecilius in his tenth incarnation.
It also revisited the idea of something alien taking over a pre-historic era by impersonating an important figure. The concept was last seen in Robot of Sherwood.
Synopsis
