The Overseers tell the Doctor that this planet exists out of the [[universe]] and therefore allows them easy access to all other points of the universe. Their species became so rich that they were bored. They started watching stories of other worlds, and eventually hit upon the idea of selling stories to other worlds. They sell experiences to very rich people, and as a result they themselves have become even richer. After some time, they decided to alter the realities of some of their subjects, in order to make their stories more interesting. They have been interfering with the Doctor's reality for some time. | The Overseers tell the Doctor that this planet exists out of the [[universe]] and therefore allows them easy access to all other points of the universe.
