Guide:Plot summary for New Who: Difference between revisions

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.

[[File:Dan Lewis WttT.jpg|right|thumb|360px|[[Dan Lewis]], played by [[John Bishop]].]]The Doctor and Yaz have been travelling alone for some time, but the Doctor is still determined to find answers about [[the Division]], which eventually puts the two on the trail of a former Division operative, the dog-like alien [[Karvanista]], whose species the [[Lupari]] seem to be heading for [[Earth]]. When they find him, however, he reveals that the Lupari are actually trying to save humanity from [[the Flux]], a devastating wave of antimatter which is in the process of destroying the entire [[N-Space|universe]]. All across time and space, various species and faction try to take advantage of this destruction, including the [[Sontaran]]s, exiled space dictator [[the Grand Serpent]], and most worryingly [[Swarm]] and [[Azure]], god-like crystal people from the [[Dark Times|dawn of time]] hell-bent on destroying the entire universe and unraveling the [[Web of Time]]. The Doctor and Yaz are joined on their travels through this chaotic universe by [[Dan Lewis]], an impoverished but ever-optimistic man from [[Liverpool]], who was the human Karvanista had been assigned to protect. Together they foil the Sontarans' attempted timey-wimey invasion of Earth, and are then ured to the mysterious [[Temple of Atropos]].
