Synopsis
The Dalek Time Strategist has a new plan to ensure final victory in the Time War. As its forces gather for a huge assault on the enemy, ahead of the fleet something hovers above the planet of the Time Lords. And on Gallifrey itself, shadows move among the Cloisters. The Time Lords face a threat alien to their entire universe. To save their world, the War Doctor and his allies must enter the Enigma Dimension...

Notes
- The Enigma is twice the size of a planet, but the Doctor's TARDIS couldn't register any mass for it.
- Ollistra was experimenting with a Temporal Flux Weapon.
Story notes
- This was the final performance for John Hurt as the War Doctor before his death on 25 January 2017. His final line in the role was: "Sadly, Leela, your opinion of me is somewhat out of date. I'm a warrior. Just like the rest of the Time Lords, and perhaps, even, I am the very worst of them all."
Continuity
- Leela suggests hiding deep within the TARDIS like they did when the Sontarans attacked Gallifrey. (TV: The Invasion of Time)
- Kanteer deploys the De-mat Gun. (TV: The Invasion of Time)
