Arcadia, Gallifrey, TARDIS Synopsis In her bedroom on board the TARDIS, Nyssa dreams of her long lost home, and a Forbidden Archway that never really existed - or did it? In the TARDIS corridors she finds a flight of steps, a door marked ‘keep out’, and beyond, a locked room full of secrets. In particular a casket containing a jewel seems to call to her. “Nyssa of Traken, do you want to be my friend?” So begins a journey that takes Nyssa from snow capped mountains to vast cities, and introduces her to people she seems to know so well.

I might sound a bit harsh, but I sometimes feel that writers use other incarnations of The Doctor to prop up stories that don't quite have enough points of interest. This is not a terrible story by any means, it is nice psychedelic, but it is a bit of an exercise in showing the audience things that they recognise in fan-service, over delivering a top notch plot. 15thDoctor View profile Like Liked 0 Open in new window Statistics AVG.
