Guide:Plot summary for New Who: Difference between revisions

The Doctor is alone yet again, and finds himself somewhat lonely. In a series of coincidences, he bumps into the bride from before, [[Donna Noble]], played by [[Catherine Tate]]. He invites her to come with him, to see the stars. She readily accepts, having only temporary jobs and her marriage falling through. One notable adventure places the two of them in a library spanning an entire planet, where the Doctor meets a mysterious woman, [[River Song]], who seems to know him in great detail, even though he's never met her before. Ultimately, she sacrifices herself in order to save his life, and the life of everyone else on the planet. Not too long after, the pair return to where Earth should be, but find that it has vanished, along with 26 other planets. They attempt to track it down, but are unable to do so. Meanwhile, on Earth, many of the people that have been impacted by the Doctor, including Martha and Rose, who has managed to find her way back from the other universe, are organizing to resist the Daleks, who are the ones who have abducted the Earth. Ultimately they manage to get a signal out to the Doctor and he manages to land on Earth. When he arrives, he sees Rose, and due to his distraction a Dalek shoots him. He begins to regenerate, but he forces the regeneration energy into his hand that was cut off years ago, halting the process. The Daleks abduct the TARDIS with the Doctor and his friends inside, taking them to a space station where they're monitoring everything. the Doctor and company, sans Donna, leave the TARDIS, and learn that the plan is to use these planets to power a machine to wipe out all of reality. The Daleks shunt off the TARDIS to be destroyed, and Donna manages to trigger the latent regeneration energy in the hand, causing a human version of [[Meta-Crisis Doctor|the Doctor]] to grow from it. The pair escape from destruction, and manage to return to the space station. The Daleks manage to stop this new Doctor as well, but don't account for the fact that Donna has gained some of the Doctor's memories as well, and she manages to halt the detonation, sending all the planets back to their proper place. However, the human Doctor causes all of the Daleks to self destruct, disappointing the Doctor, and causing him to place both his human clone and Rose back in the parallel universe. Donna's brain, ultimately, buckles under the strain from having part of the Doctor's mind imprinted on it, and the Doctor decides to wipe her memory, leaving him alone yet again. Not long after he will sacrifice himself to save Donna's grandfather from dying from radiation poisoning.

After changing once more, regenerating into The [[Eleventh Doctor]], played by [[Matt Smith]], our Time Lord protagonist meets his newest companion, [[Amy Pond]], during her childhood and helps her solve a problem, a crack in her house, a tear in time and space. He tries a short hop into the future - but finds himself flung years further than he thought, and reunites with Amy, played by [[Karen Gillan]]. The two travel on a few minor adventures, encountering River Song yet again, as more of these cracks in the universe menace them - even erasing a horde of [[Weeping Angel]]s from ever existing. Amy's fiancé [[Rory Williams]], played by [[Arthur Darvill]], joins the group, before eventually becoming erased by a crack - Amy forgetting all about him. As the Doctor attempts to prevent the opening of a prison spoken in legend, the [[Pandorica]], it becomes clear that the setup is a trap, the opening was timed to lure the Doctor so that he could be imprisoned. While he's in the Pandorica, his TARDIS explodes, creating the cracks in time, wiping out most of the universe. The Doctor escapes from the Pandorica, and uses the fragments of information stored within it to reboot the entire universe, using his exploding TARDIS as a power source, before showing up in this newly rebooted universe on Amy and Rory's wedding day.
