Doctor Who: The Girl Who Waited - Synopsis

The BBC have published the press details for The Girl Who Waited, the tenth episode of this year's Doctor Who series, which is written by Tom MacRae.

Amy is trapped in a quarantine facility for victims of an alien plague – a plague that will kill the Doctor in a day – as the time-travelling drama continues.

The Doctor can use the TARDIS to smash through time and break in, but then Rory is on his own. He must find Amy and bring her back to the TARDIS before the alien doctors can administer their medicine.

Rory is about to encounter a very different side to his wife. Can he rescue Amy before she is killed by kindness?

Amy is played by Karen Gillan, The Doctor by Matt Smith and Rory by Arthur Darvill.

The episode will be broadcast on BBC ONE/HD on Saturday 10th September. The exact transmission time will be confirmed next week.
