The Who-Files continue, with no signs of ending. Right now we are going through the Companion goodbye stories. Over the weekend, Sarah is possessed by the surviving hand of a silicon being. The Doctor must restore Sarah's mind and find out what the hand is up to before it causes real damage. The weekdays begin with the second half of The Invasion of Time, where the Doctor's efforts to eliminate the Vardan invasion leave Gallifrey defenseless at precisely the wrong moment. The week ends at the Warriors' Gate, where the Doctor, Romana, and K9 think they have finally found the way out of E-Space.
