Doctor Who: The Almost People - Synopsis, Transmission Details

The BBC have published some brief plot details and the transmission time for the sixth episode in the current of Doctor Who. The episode, titled 'The Almost People', is scripted by Matthew Graham.

Synopsis
As the solar storm rages, Jennifer, a Ganger driven mad by the memories of being "decommissioned", is seeking revenge, as the time-travelling drama continues.

She can remember every excruciating second of every "execution" and is determined that the humans will pay. And she isn't just talking war; she's talking revolution. As the crumbling factory fills with toxic fumes and drips lethal acid, the "Originals" wait desperately for the shuttle from the Mainland to rescue them. But Jennifer has other ideas. 

Can the Doctor convince the terrified factory workers to embrace their own humanity and work together with their Gangers to overcome a monster of their own making?

Jennifer is played by Sarah Smart, the Doctor by Matt Smith, Amy by Karen Gillan and Rory by Arthur Darvill.

The story is scheduled to be broadcast on BBC One/HD on Saturday, 28th May at 6.45pm.
