Doctor Who

'Who was that?' asked Clara. 'And what are pieces of eight?' 
The Doctor smiled. 'Robert Louis Stevenson. I did tell you.' 
 
Summoned to 1700s Plymouth, the Doctor and Clara must investigate a mysterious thievery from the Crown of King George. 
 
Their travels take them to a remote island - but as the secrets of the theft are unearthed, the Doctor discovers something far more sinister. The spectre of a terrible intellect is afoot. 
 
Thankfully, the Doctor and Clara won't be alone. A pirate called Long John Silver, a runaway called Janey Hawkins, and professor called River Song, are all along for the ride.

Sarah Jane doesn't know who she is any more. 
 
She's applied for a job as a secretary at a run-of-the-mill office, with just one other co-worker. 
 
He’s nice enough. A little strange, a little charming, clearly an innovator. For a snappy dresser, though (Sarah loves the scarf) he’s strangely quiet. 
 
That’s because, of course, he’s the Doctor. Working with UNIT to try to restore Sarah’s memories, he’s found himself battling an alien group harvesting the minds of unsuspecting victims. 
 
But he’s already on the back foot, and as the alien hive mind draws in its followers, he’s very much in need of a friend. 
 
Enter legendary musician Fela Kuti. Another innovator – just as challenging, and just as charming. He might just be the one the save the human race.

But something far more menacing has been awakened. Caught in an ancient battle for power, Donna and the Doctor are sucked into a dangerous game. As each move is made and time spins faster, the Doctor must find a way to seal the rift before an unimaginable power is unleashed and the universe is laid to waste.
