Check the behind the scenes section, the revision history and discussion page for additional comments on this article's title.
The Midnight entity is some sort of extraterrestrial lifeform of unknown origins native to the planet Midnight.
When the Crusader Tour shuttle breaks down on Midnight, the mechanic notices a strange thing like a shadow of some sort, which he claimed to see it running toward the shuttle.
- This may mean that the creature is humanoid.
During the Crusader Tour to the Sapphire Waterfall, the strange entity attacked the tour bus. The entity at first knocked on the Shuttle and then, when it had found a host, somehow made it inside the shuttle, without any sign of a hole in the vehicle. The entity, without a host, was strong enough to rip away the driver's cabin of the shuttle. It possessed Sky Silvestry. The entity seemed to gather the strength of its host and then repeats every word a person said in exact precisions, including the square root of Pi in 30 decimal places. This is most likely due to the fact that having probably never come into contact with another lifeform before it can not understand the English language. The being seems to be able to learn at an incredibly rapid pace and absorbs the passengers’ speech without forgetting, hesitating, or making a single mistake. Eventually, the entity copied word-for-word in the exact same time, focusing on the Doctor's voice, and eventually stealing the the Doctor's voice, before the Hostess threw herself and Sky, who had the entity inside of her, off the shuttle to save the Doctor. (DW: Midnight)
- The entity may have survived the death of Sky and it may still be lurking on the planet of Midnight. It is unknown if the Midnight entity caused the Crusader vehicle to stop, if the mechanic saw what he thought he saw or even if the creature was part of a species or existed alone on the planet Midnight. The creature could be a product of the X-tonic sun as in the episode 42 the sun turned out to be the intelligence possessing the crew members. It is also unknown what the creature's ultimate intentions were as it never really got a chance to speak on its own, although it was, or is, most likely a hostile creature as it wanted to have the Doctor thrown out into the sun. It preferred the bodies of corporeal creatures to its native environment, as the entity said the environment was cold and dark.
Behind the Scenes
This is the first time on Doctor Who where an enemy has never been revealed. The name of the creature is not revealed in the episode, and "Midnight entity" is just an unofficial name. However, judging by the way the entity acts at the start, and the theme throughout the series, we could call it a 'shadow', one that turns its enemies into shadows themselves.
- The entity seems almost identical to the species in the Doctor Who Unbound audio A Storm of Angels, right down to the gemstone planet it inhabited.
