After attempting to return back home, The Doctor (Peter Capaldi) and Bill Potts (Pearl Mackie) find themselves at one of the last great Frost Fairs on the Thames in 1814. Aside from dealing with an elephant on the ice, the pair find something more sinister afoot, with lights under the ice and a beast below…

During TARDISblend 102, we examine the ongoing character development and chemistry between Capaldi and Mackie on-screen, the quality of the writing so far this season, and dive into the parallels between this new episode and other episodes long gone.
