“The Master!!” the Doctor suddenly exclaimed, finally remembering something really important that he couldn’t believe he’d forgotten. “Right! He did something to my TARDIS,” Eight continued, scrambling over to the console and typing madly away at the keyboard as he dragged the scanner screen in front of him. “Have I ever mentioned him to you?” he asked Rose. “No, probably not — you’d at least know about him, then.
