Bill Potts existed as virtual construct in a world created by the Monks, so that the could plan the perfect invasion of Earth. (TV: Extremis)
History
In the Shadow World, a virtual reality simulation of Earth, Bill's date with Penny was interrupted when the Doctor arrived and the Pope walked into the flat. Bill accompanied the Doctor and Nardole to the Vatican to read the Veritas, which had caused a number of devout Catholic priests to commit suicide. When a priest, armed with a gun fired a shot, Bill and Nardole left to investigate on the instructions of the Doctor before going through a portal that appeared in the wall.
They entered a white walled room with projectors projecting portals and entered one leading to the Pentagon and another that led them to CERN where scientists who had read the Veritas sent via email were planning to blow themselves up. When Bill demanded to know why they were doing it, one of the scientists had her and Nardole say any number they wanted when he hit the table. They both said the same number. This repeated with the scientist and eventually the whole room joining in.
Bill and Nardole, frightened by the experience quickly left before the dynamite wired to the canteen tables exploded. Nardole deduced that the projectors were actually projecting the locations not portals and stepped out of the light reducing to Computer code. Bill followed the blood splatters on the floor through another portal arriving at the White House where the Doctor had listened to the audio recording of the Veritas.
He explained to her that a daemon that wanted to conquer Earth had made a shadow world to practise conquering and that aliens had done the same to practise conquering the planet in the present day. The Shadow Test was designed to help creatures living in either world work out whether they were in the real world or the shadow one. By getting the same numbers, Nardole and the Doctor had worked out they were not real and a part of the Shadow World.
On learning this, despite denying it, Bill too dissolved into computer pixels. (TV: Extremis)
