List of episodes

Jodie Whittaker returns for her second series as the Thirteenth Doctor, an incarnation of the Doctor, an alien Time Lord who travels through time and space in her TARDIS, which appears from the outside to be an old fashioned British police box. It also stars Bradley Walsh, Tosin Cole and Mandip Gill as the Doctor's travelling companions, playing Graham O'Brien, Ryan Sinclair and Yasmin Khan, respectively. The series follows the Thirteenth Doctor and her companions, who meet a new incarnation of the Master, the destruction of Gallifrey, the return of Jack Harkness, the appearance of an unknown incarnation of the Doctor, the Cybermen, and the secret of the "Timeless Child".

The ten episodes were directed by Jamie Magnus Stone, Lee Haven Jones, Nida Manzoor and Emma Sullivan. Alongside Chibnall, who wrote four of the scripts and co-wrote a further three, the writers include Ed Hime, Pete McTighe and Vinay Patel, who return from writing the previous series, as well as new contributors Nina Metivier, Maxine Alderton and Charlene James. Filming commenced in January 2019 and had concluded by November 2019.

While sneaking into Barton's headquarters with Ryan, Yaz is captured by a Kasaavin, and the Doctor's captured Kasaavin frees itself by replacing itself with Yaz. Joined by O, the four investigate Barton at his party. After the Doctor reveals him, Barton tries to escape, so the Doctor and her companions pursue on motorbikes to Barton's private jet.

Seemingly peaceful at first, the facility is quickly overrun by Dregs, humanoid monsters, due to an intentional disruption of the security systems. Several guests and facility workers are killed before the Doctor re-establishes the security fields. The survivors leave the dome to save a fellow survivor, but the Dregs lead them into a trap, and they retreat to a tunnel to return to the facility. One of the guests, Bella, reveals she purposely disrupted the security field as revenge against her mother Kane, who built Tranquility Spa and ignored her childhood.

The Doctor, Graham and Ryan visit Edison's workshop. The cloaked figure arrives at Edison's lab and pursues Edison. The Doctor tries to warn Tesla and Yaz back at his lab, but they are captured and transported to an invisible alien ship, belonging to the Queen of the Skithra, a scorpion-like alien, who demands help to fix it. The Doctor transports herself, Tesla and Yaz back to Tesla's lab. The Queen refuses to leave, threatening to destroy Earth if Tesla is not surrendered.

A text from Lee triggers Ruth's memories, which leads them to a lighthouse. Unable to teleport the Doctor, Harkness gives the companions a message from the future and is forced to teleport away, returning them to Gloucester. Ruth finds an alarm box outside, breaks it, and is engulfed in energy; the Doctor discovers a buried TARDIS, which Ruth claims is hers, introducing herself as the Doctor. In Ruth's TARDIS, the Doctor and Ruth discover that neither of them remembers the other. Ruth once worked for Gat and hid her identity with a chameleon arch. The TARDIS is brought aboard the Judoon ship. Under orders to bring Ruth back to Gallifrey, Gat is shown a vision of a destroyed Gallifrey by the Doctor. Gat shoots at Ruth but the gun backfires.

The Doctor and her companions investigate a bacterium that covers human bodies in a crystalline substance before disintegrating them. Aided by ex-police officer Jake, blogger Gabriela, and medical researcher Suki, they find Jake's husband Adam in the early stages of infection, and take him to Suki's lab to evaluate him while Yaz and Gabriela explore the site where they found Jake, eventually finding a teleport to an alien location. The Doctor determines the bacterium is drawn to microplastics. Suki reveals she is from an alien race devastated by this bacterium, which they called Praxeus, and had come to Earth to evaluate it further for a cure. While the Doctor finds a cure for humans, using it on the willing Adam to test it, it cannot stop Praxeus from affecting Suki and soon disintegrates her. Travelling to Yaz's location, they find they are under the Indian Ocean garbage patch, where Suki's ship is located. They load the ship's reserves with the antidote and set the ship to self-destruct in the atmosphere to disperse it, but Jake willingly pilots the vessel when the auto-pilot fails.

They are led to a ship in the future piloted by Zellin, who claims to be immortal and omnipotent.

A spectral figure appears and reveals itself as a Cyberman named Ashad seeking the missing Cyberium, the collected knowledge of the Cybermen. The Doctor discovers Percy, finding he had found the Cyberium earlier and had gone crazy from it, with the Cyberium creating haunted imagery to prevent discovery. Despite knowing of Jack's previous warning of the lone Cyberman, the Doctor extracts the Cyberium from Percy and, under threat, gives it to Ashad, who returns to the future.

They discover Ko Sharmus is a person acting as a ferryman for other humans to escape through a portal to the other side of the universe for safety. Aboard the humans' ship, they pass through a battlefield with debris of dead Cybermen and board a seemingly-abandoned Cyber carrier. However, too late they discover that Ashad and a group of Cyberwarriors have arrived, and have since seized the control deck and directed the ship towards the Doctor, and are waking the other Cybermen in stasis. Yaz contacts the Doctor about their impending arrival, just as Ko Sharmus opens the portal. The portal is revealed to be the new location of the ruins of Gallifrey, much to the Doctor's surprise. The Master jumps through and tells the Doctor that she should be afraid because everything is about to change forever.
295b10"The Timeless Children"Jamie Magnus StoneChris Chibnall1 March 2020 (2020-03-01)4.6982
The Master forcibly teleports the Doctor to Gallifrey, where he imprisons her in the Matrix. While in the Matrix, the Master reveals that the Doctor was an orphaned female child from another dimension found and experimented on by a Shobogan woman named Tecteun. After many years, Tecteun eventually discovers how the Child can regenerate thus leading to the creation of the Time Lords. Meanwhile, the Master contacts Ashad to lead the Cybermen to Gallifrey but realises that he cannot have the Cyberium if Ashad is alive, prompting him to shrink Ashad and absorb the Cyberium. He then uses the Cyberium to convert the dead Time Lords into Cybermen, which he dubbed the "CyberMasters". Yaz and Graham safely reunite with Ryan and the others then follow the Cybermen to Gallifrey. Ruth helps the Doctor escape the Matrix by transmitting her old and new memories. Back in the chamber, the Doctor plans to detonate the death particle from Ashad's remains to stop the Master, but Ko Sharmus arrives and takes her place as his penance so the Doctor can escape, detonating the particle in his final moments. Before it detonated, the Master ordered the CyberMasters to follow him elsewhere. The companions return to Earth in a house disguised TARDIS and the Doctor makes her way back to her own TARDIS. Suddenly, the Judoon appear to arrest the Doctor and take her to a distant prison elsewhere in space.
