Synopsis for Doctor Who: 'The Pilot'

The BBC has released the synopsis for The Pilot, the first episode of Series 10:

Two worlds collide when the Doctor meets Bill. A chance encounter with a girl with a star in her eye leads to a terrifying chase across time and space.

Bill’s mind is opened to a Universe that is bigger and more exciting than she could possibly have imagined – but who is the Doctor, and what is his secret mission with Nardole on Earth?

To be broadcast Saturday 15 April on BBC One, the time has yet to be confirmed.

In Jonathan Morris’s Plague City, the year in 1645 and Edinburgh is in the grip of the worst plague in its history. Nobody knows who will be the next to succumb – nobody except the Night Doctor, a masked figure that stalks the streets, seeking out those who will not live another day.

In Cavan Scott’s The Shining Men, being scared is the least of your worries. The Shining Men are everywhere. You spot them out of the corner of your eye. Abnormally tell, with long lank hair, blank faces and blazing eyes. If they catch you, they’ll drag you away to who knows where. They’re on every street corner. No-one is safe.

All three novels feature the Twelfth Doctor, as played by Peter Capaldi, and Bill, as played by Pearl Mackie.
