After an adventure and a half in space, the Doctor and Clara are kidnapped by 9th-century Vikings. However, to make matters worse, hostile aliens have also arrived in the vikings' village; they are provoked into declaring war on the village by a stubborn girl.
By the end of the adventure, the Doctor will learn where it was that he saw his own face before, and the reason why he chose it.
