42 (TV story)

Synopsis
In a distant galaxy, in the 42nd century, a spaceship hurtles out of control towards a boiling sun. The Doctor has 42 minutes to uncover the saboteurs, but with a mysterious force starting to possess the ship's crew, the Doctor and Martha are running out of time. Aside from the many references to 42 in the story, the action appears to take place in realtime making this a Doctor Who version of '24' - something I'm sure the producers were aware of when they came up with the title.
