"I have never been so afraid until I met the man with the scythe."
Death is stalking the countryside of 17th-century England — literally! A terrifying skull-faced spectre in a hood has been spotted by villages near London. But this isn't the Grim Reaper, it's an android created by a gang of reptilian aliens called Terileptils. The creatures have crashed to Earth and are hatching plans to hijack the Black Death for their own nefarious ends. Can the Fifth Doctor and his friends prevent them from wiping out humanity with the biggest plague of all time?

Notable information

  • Tribology is the study of friction, lubrication and wear. In Doctor Who, tribophysics explains what happens when two realities rub against each other, causing the local laws of physics to warp and break down. It can allow creatures to slip between the gaps in dimensions. This is what the Extrapolator is for.
  • By the time of The Runaway Bride, the extrapolator was so integrated into the TARDIS that it had a coral crust.
  • Matron Cofellia (aka Miss Foster) was originally going to be called Miss Rattigan but the name was used in The Sontaran Stratagem instead.
  • "Rani" is the Hindi word for "queen".
  • The Terileptils in The Visitation were the first Doctor Who creatures to feature animatronics built into a mask.
