Over the weekend, the Valeyard presents the more damaging part of his evidence in the Doctor's trial, an incident where the Doctor seemingly sacrificed everything he cared about to save his own neck. On Monday, the original Doctor Who story concludes with the savages recapturing the Doctor and company, planning to kill them if the Doctor does not create fire. The rest of the week covers the events surrounding the beginning of the 3rd Doctor's reign, when an alien invasion was brought about through the use of plastic.
