It Takes You Away was the ninth episode of series 11 of Doctor Who.
Synopsis
In an isolated house in the Norwegian fjords, a scared girl hides alone, waiting for her father to return. In the distance, a monster comes to take people away. And for some reason, one mirror is not working as it should. The Thirteenth Doctor and her friends must battle their own desires to work out what is going on.

References
- The Doctor claims to have had seven grandmothers, including Granny Five. Granny Five told her about the Solitract, and claimed that Granny Two was a secret agent for the Zygons.
Story notes
- This is a rare example of a story where there is no real enemy. The Solitract proved to simply be lonely and missing the universe and never meant anyone any harm.
- All scenes within the Solitract plane where flipped around to depict the reversed image seen in a mirror. This not only applied to the set, but also to the actors: eagle-eyed viewers could make out such details as the Slayer logo on Erik's shirt being backwards, and the parting in the Doctor's hair being on the opposite side.
