Publisher's summary
Missy arrives in Tudor England, throwing the plans of another renegade Time Lord into chaos.

Plot
to be added
Cast
- Missy - Michelle Gomez
- The Meddling Monk - Rufus Hound

Worldbuilding
- Missy uses her vortex manipulator to arrive in England.

- The Monk knows about all of the renegade Time Lords, and he recognises Missy as an incarnation of the Master.
- According to Missy, Henry VIII composed "Greensleeves". When she criticises the Monk for not knowing this when questioned by Catherine, he says he "didn't expect a pub quiz".
Notes
- This story's title is an obvious play at the famous mnemonic of the fates of King Henry VIII's wives: "Divorced, beheaded, died; divorced, beheaded, survived"
Continuity
- The Monk saw Gallifrey disappeared The Day of the Doctor, during through his connection to the Matrix.
- When Missy strands him in the past, the Monk refers to how he was stranded in 1066 in The Time Meddler.
