propaganda machine and Bill is trying to deal with her actions.



The monks have been here since the evolution of the Earth? Really Orwellian

and Darwinian!



Nardole recovers and Bill is put to the test.



She passes and the prison hulk where the Doctor is, is now resistance HQ!!



Even the Master aka Missy needs to be consulted as an adversary.



March onto the Cathedral in London.



The Lie of the Land. The monks are benevolent

and in great numbers? Not true.



What a transmitter.



Best line is Fake News Central!!



So the battle is between the Monks and the Doctor and companions.



Bill wins with the memory of her mother.



The oppressors are on the run. Will they be back?



The Doctor is not pure like Missy.



Shed a tear.

but what an incredible midpoint.



A pyramid shows up out of nowhere.



An Agrolab is the target for the aliens.



So the President of Earth is called upon by the Secretary General of the U N and find Bill Potts.



All right, how can you get a TARDIS into an aircraft? Nitpick point.

The monks can prevent a 'disaster' if the surrender is 'pure'.



Step 1)



The Earth must show unity.



Attack neutralised.



Still an error happens at the Agrofood labs.



The multiple visits to the Monks' pyramid should be a clue to a distraction.



The Midnight Clock is counting down.



The Doctor needs to solve the puzzle.

Bill pays a price as the Doctor's sight is restored
