Synopsis
When NASA discovers a message on Mars's surface, the Twelfth Doctor, Nardole, and Bill are called to investigate. On arrival, they find themselves embroiled in a conflict between the Ice Warriors and the Empress Iraxxa, and Victorian soldiers—who are determined to conquer Mars. It's just the same, only this time the humans are the ones invading. Now which side should the Doctor help: humans, or Ice Warriors? One thing is abundantly clear, the Doctor must choose fast, as the Martian hive awakens around them.
