Publisher's Summary
In The Web In Space, a distress signal calls the TARDIS to the Black Horizon, a spaceship under attack from the Empire of Eternal Victory. But the robotic scavengers are the least of the Doctor's worries. Something terrifying is waiting to trap him in space...

Plot
The Gloriana Scattering is apparently far from anywhere else. Nothing lives there, it is lifeless. And yet, when one ship arrives, dangerous things begin to happen.

The Doctor, Amy and  Rory inside the TARDIS are experiencing some difficulties as usual. There's a confusing alarm, which is either a distress signal or the phone ringing. The Doctor neglects to tell Amy and Rory which one it is. They finally land, the Doctor deciding it was a distress signal and appear inside some sort of space ship, with guns being pointed at them. They claim that they are there to help. Ensign Sam Appleseed introduces himself as the technical officer. He explains that they are about to be invaded. He escorts the newcomers to the Captain.

The Captain is Captain Jones who explains that they are on the space ship Black Horizon and are trapped in the Gloriana Scattering. The Doctor deciphers that they are being invaded by The Empire Of Eternal Victory. The Captain explains that the engines are somehow not working, and they are apparently being kept by a shiny cable attached to the outer casing of the ship. Deciding to help, the Doctor and Amy head with a few guards to meet the invaders, leaving Rory with the Captain.
