Doctor Who: The Girl Who Waited

The current series of Doctor Who continues in the UK, USA and Canada tonight, with The Girl Who Waited 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 at 7.15pm. Doctor Who Confidential will then go behind the scenes of the episode at 8.00pm on BBC Three.

BBC America will show The Girl Who Waited at 9/8c tonight while SPACE will broadcast the story in Canada at 8.00pm, and will be followed by the final episode of Torchwood: Miracle Day.
