Synopsis[]
The Master has caught all eight incarnations in an unescapable trap. Not only have they been scattered throughout their timeline, but the Master has them trapped in one time & space. With their first, second & fourth incarnations caught directly in the Master's web, the Doctor's remaining incarnations must work with faces from their past & future to escape their trap.
From a Dalek invasion in Egypt, to a Sontaran threatening to end the Earth in a nuclear explosion, have the Doctors finally met their match?
