This article needs a big cleanup.

Quite how much do we know about this? How much of it is DWM's speculation? How much is the author's imperfect memories? Someone needs to dig up DWM 255 and check.

These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.

Network was a story that was to have been a part of Season 28, had Doctor Who continued to be produced beyond Survival, probably written by Ben Aaronovitch and Marc Platt.

According to the DWM# 255 article, the story would have featured the return of the Rani and would have been set in a university where she was posing as vice chancellor.[1] A similar plot would later appear in the Sixth Doctor audio story, The Rani Elite. In DWM #255, it mentioned that the episode would have concerned stopping "A Biological Computer Virus" from taking over the world's computer systems. Other characters thought have been featured in the story were Brigadier Winifred Bambera and Sam Tollinger.
