There’s a house on Aickman road and a staircase that people go up, but never down. To solve the mystery of the man upstairs, the Doctor must face his greatest challenge—he must pass himself off as a perfectly normal human being and share a flat with Craig Owens.
Richard Milhous Nixon is remembered by most as the President of the United States who came undone over the Watergate scandal. But a few recall him as the President who was involved in the incident of ‘the big blue box in the Oval Office.’
The Doctor believed that the Shakri were a myth, a fiction to keep ‘the young of Gallifrey in their place’. But the Shakri exist: enigmatic, powerful and ruthless slaves to the Tally.
A great deal about these robots remains a mystery, but they are not evil creatures. Automated robots who run the Twostreams Facility on Apalapucia, they are relentless and determined to carry out their pre-programmed task no matter what.
