Captain Revere is the latest victim to be sucked beneath the surface of Frontios, leaving the young Plantagenet to run the colony. The TARDIS has also been 'destroyed'.

The TARDIS exceeds the outer limits of where Time Lords are allowed to explore. Ideally, the Doctor must leave before he can have any effect on the timeline. But if he leaves, the final remnants of the human race will be eliminated. This is a later start time than Doctor Who has had for a little while, and it might be permanent, as Blake's 7 is back on UK Gold's schedule, airing just before Doctor Who. Oddly, UK Gold will air the same Blake's 7 episode that BBC2 will show just a few hours earlier on Saturday. Maybe UK Gold wants viewers to notice that the helmets in Frontios are the same as the ones used in Blake's 7.
