Guide:Plot summary for New Who: Difference between revisions

Starting this new era of Doctor Who, this new Doctor falls out of her TARDIS, as it has been destroyed by regenerative energy, and lands on a train in Sheffield, where she meets [[Yasmin Khan]], a police officer, played by [[Mandip Gill]], [[Ryan Sinclair]], played by [[Tosin Cole]], [[Grace O'Brien]], Ryan's grandmother, played by [[Sharon D Clarke]], and [[Graham O'Brien]], Grace's husband and Ryan's step-granddad. Together, they form an alliance, and fight [[Tzim-Sha]] of the [[Stenza]], a mighty warrior race whose sole purpose is to hunt human beings. Together, they manage to save the planet, but tragically Grace dies in the process, leaving Graham a widow. The Doctor then attempts to return to the TARDIS, but accidentally takes her new companions with her, and they begin to travel alongside her. After many exciting adventures, they once more face Tzim-Sha, and end up by locking him in his temple, ending the character arcs of Graham and Ryan that began with the death of Grace.

They continue with their travels, fighting [[Spy Master|a new incarnation of the Master]], robotic postmen and [[Judoon]]. The Master reveals to the Doctor that he has destroyed Gallifrey once more, and the Doctor discovers that this is true. Heartbroken, the Doctor nonetheless continues on her travels, and she meets an earlier incarnation of herself, one she has no memory of, and one who has no memory of her. This mysterious incarnation, known retroactively as the [[Fugitive Doctor]], works for shadowy organisation [[Division]], but has run away and become a human on Earth. The Thirteenth Doctor helps her escape from Division, and carries on her way across the universe. Later, she comes across a lone Cyberman by the name of [[Ashad]]. She manages to temporarily defeat him, but must now face of hundreds of Cybermen in an epic battle. Alone with the last of humanity, she must battle the Cybermen and the Master, who had allied himself with the Cybermen. The Master takes her aside to Gallifrey and reveals (in a retcon which proved controversial with fans) that she is, in fact, no Time Lord, and that everything that she has ever been told about the Time Lords is a lie. Her current identity was born when the Division erased the memories of their agent the Doctor, who had once been the "Timeless Child", a mysterious foundling discovered by a wormhole by the early Time Lords. It was from the Child's biology they discovered the secret to regeneration. This was the reason that there Master has destroyed Gallifrey. This was the explanation for the mysterious earlier incarnation of herself. The Doctor manages to save her companions and the rest of the universe from the Cybermen, but is captured by the Judoon and trapped in prison.
