The Series 9 Prologue was a prequel to the ninth series of Doctor Who, which was released 11 September 2015 on the Doctor Who website and BBC iPlayer.

Plot

The Twelfth Doctor has returned to Karn and discusses the nature of friends and enemies with Ohila, the leader of the Sisterhood of Karn. The two discuss an invitation given to the Doctor by an unnamed individual, someone who the Doctor has known for a long time, but has been enemies with for almost all that time.

Ohila doesn't believe the Doctor when he says he will not visit "him", and continues to question his reasons. Eventually the Doctor says he will go "soon", and gives Ohila an object that he says she knows who to give it to. The Doctor comments that he should go meditate somewhere and then leaves the meeting spot.

Story notes

  • This is the first prequel, mini-episode, or webcast to feature the Twelfth Doctor.
  • This is the first time Ohila has been seen from a present standpoint in the series rather than in the past.
  • The Doctor's line to Ohila, "Look after the universe for me, I've put a lot of work into it." is identical to a line used in the 1999 Red Nose Day Comic Relief Doctor Who parody The Curse of Fatal Death, a spoof also written by Steven Moffat. The line in question was spoken coincidentally by that universe's version of the Twelfth Doctor as he was apparently dying for good. He asked his companion Emma, and the Master, to do the same.

Ratings

  • The video recieved over seventyfive thousand views on YouTube within days.

Filming locations

  • The whole webcast was filmed in the Taff's Well quarry, Cardiff, Wales
