World Enough and Time, written by Steven Moffat, was the eleventh episode of the tenth series of Doctor Who produced by BBC Wales.
The episode marked the return of John Simm as the Saxon Master, marked the first onscreen appearance of more than one incarnation of the Master. It depicted a version of the origins of the Mondasian Cybermen, as the Doctor had previously seen their origins on Mondas during his fifth incarnation, as depicted in AUDIO: Spare Parts), as well as the Cyberman's first formal appearance since Death in Heaven. It also showed what appeared to be the beginning of the Twelfth Doctor's regeneration, after it had been teased in The Lie of the Land.
