Then, in 'Logopolis', the fate of the Universe hangs in the balance as the Doctor must join forces with the Master to prevent its destruction. Will the Doctor be able to stay alive? It's 13th Century England and the Doctor is surprised to see King John and a Frenchman in the court. What secret plans are brewing and why is King John behaving so strangely? The TARDIS receives a Trion distress call from Earth and the Doctor goes to Lanzarote to investigate. But Turlough is hiding something from secret past and the Doctor begins to suspect.
