From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Embankment was a tube station on the Circle line.
History
Charlotte Pollard and Robert Buchan arrived near Embankment after travelling through the Ever-and-Ever Prolixity, (AUDIO: Embankment Station) sent there due to the Rogue Viyran's affinity for viruses. (AUDIO: Ruffling) They were labelled as a threat by the Identical Man, who sent out his pulse from near the station (AUDIO: Embankment Station) until Charley and Robert left the planet. (AUDIO: Seed of Chaos)
To prevent the effects of the pulse from spreading, despite the fact the Identical Man had left, the Prime Minister bombed Central London. (AUDIO: The Destructive Quality of Life)
Behind the scenes
- In the real world, prior to the 1970s, Embankment was formerly known as Charing Cross. Charing Cross and surrounding stations underwent extensive redevelopment when the Jubilee line was built in the 1970s. The station originally known as Charing Cross was merged by a passenger walkway with Trafalgar Square to become Embankment, and the station formerly known as Strand became the new Charing Cross.
