    The TARDIS lands in 15th century Italy, in the beautiful rose gardens of the de Dello family. Brothers Aurelio and Vincenzo, one an inventor, the other an artist, struggle to maintain the house under the judgemental gaze of their mother, Isabella. Secreted away in a disused wing is Hortensia, a sickly relative they all think is cursed, cared for more by the cook Torellini and maid Marzia than her actual family. But as the time travellers get embroiled in the household's machinations, darker forces are at work.

    Episode 209

    Show notes

    Hannah and David have survived the destruction of the warehouse—but awakening inside the TARDIS leaves them with even more questions about the mysterious traveller who saved them.

    As the Doctor investigates the stranger who deliberately hurled himself into a devastating energy beam, he discovers that the same man may have appeared throughout history, leaving disasters across the universe in his wake. When those catastrophes are plotted together, they reveal something impossible: a calling card written across the stars.

    Meanwhile, on the distant world of Chiron, Michael Castlebrook moves ahead with a desperate plan to prevent nuclear war by turning the planet’s terraforming engines into a weapon. But Lorenzo has plans of his own—and when Alexandria threatens to expose the scheme, murder strikes inside the supposedly secure Castlebrook Foundation.

    The Doctor follows the mysterious coordinates to Chiron, only to arrive at the worst possible moment.

    It’s been a while since Freja was home, and after all the wonders and horrors she has seen so far in her travels, all the beautiful worlds and terrifying battles, she finds herself conflicted when the TARDIS brings her back to Denmark. Except this isn’t her home.

    The Doctor and Freja are in the 10th century and find themselves caught up in a power struggle with Denmark’s ruler, Gorm the Old. With a foreign princess seeking sanctuary and the threat of rebellion growing, the travellers soon realise they can’t be sure who they can trust.

    And the Doctor thinks there’s a much bigger problem. Why are there Ice Warriors here? What do they want? He’s ready to stop their nefarious scheme, but how far will he go to save the day? Because if he makes the wrong call, it will be the end of his and Freja’s travels.

    The Doctor’s plan has failed — and the truth is finally exposed.

    In Part Four of The Crucible of Terror, the deception surrounding the Crucible is uncovered. What was believed to be Earth’s salvation is revealed as a doomsday weapon, feeding on the planet’s core and counting down to total annihilation. Betrayed by Eddic and outmanoeuvred by Drax, the Doctor realises he has been manipulated into placing the Earth itself in mortal danger.

    With the TARDIS unable to breach the Crucible’s multidimensional shielding, humanity’s last hope rests on a desperate and dangerous alternative: UNIT’s experimental gravity weapon. As the planet trembles and earthquakes ripple across the globe, Drax closes in.

    The fate of the world hangs by a thread as the Crucible begins to rise…

    The invasion is no longer a distant threat — it is here.

    In Part Three of The Crucible of Terror, the Doctor faces an impossible dilemma as Earth stands on the brink of annihilation. A vast alien warship looms overhead, a merciless mercenary named Drax demands the surrender of the Crucible, and humanity’s leaders are paralysed by fear, mistrust, and jurisdictional conflict.

    As UNIT and the U.S. military clash over authority, the truth about the Crucible is finally revealed — along with the terrifying cost of using it. With time running out, the Doctor must gamble everything on an untested plan, while Kevin Vasavious is forced into a role he never wanted, and Kathy confronts the horrors of her past.
