Doctor Who special: Revolution of the Daleks

 Set between seasons 12 and 13, this special features Jodie Whittaker as The Doctor, and follows directly on the season 12 finale.



Which does make it a sort of required viewing between those two...
 
Becuase it begins with the Doctor still in the Judoon prison, while back on Earth a reconnaisance Dalek shell is intercepted by Jack Robertson to fund a defence drone program.  Graham, Ryan and Yaz confront him about it, but they are revoked as it is for a government contract to make the UK safe again.
 
One of his scientists, Leo, discovers organic cells in the remains of the Dalek, and clones it into a creature which escapes and takes control of him.  In the meantime, the Doctor is sprung from jail by Jack Harkness and rejoins her companions, being away far longer then she thought she had been.  The Dalek's reveal their plan to take over Earth, causing the Doctor to send a signal and lead a Death Squad of Dalek's to Earth, who are only looking to make the Dalek race free of impurities.  They destroy the cloned models, but as Robertson tries to make a deal, he reveals the Doctor is on Earth as well.
 

 
The Dalek's give chase to her, but she manages to trick them using the Master's old Tardis, and sending them into the Void.  Once calm has returned though, Ryan and Graham say their goodbye's to the Doctor, having found their purpose and go off to pursue their new life goals.
 
And so we are ready for season 13 when the Doctor returns, and up to date with the changes that this has brought along compared to the season 12 finale!
