The Eaters of Light was the tenth episode of the tenth series of Doctor Who produced by BBC Wales.
It was written by Rona Munro, who returned to writing for the programme after nearly 28 years since her last television script, Survival — the end of the "Classic" era.
The episode answered the question about what happened to the Ninth Legion of the Roman army, and featured the return of Missy.
