The Doctor faces off against a highwayman in 1651!
There’s a highway robber on the loose in old time England– 1651, to be precise. The Knightmare, as he’s called is more than just a menace. He’s got his hands on some otherworldly loot, so The Doctor needs to step in!

First watch as The Knightmare holds up some unsuspecting rich folk, leading the TARDIS and The Doctor to the time and location.

It definitely looks like there’s a big reveal in store when it comes to Ashildr and fan theories are running rampant. Is she a new companion? A younger version of an existing character? Another timelord– or even another reincarnation of The Doctor?
But of course, there’s another question plaguing our minds: Where’s Clara?
While you wait for the answers, here’s several new stills and promotional images for the episode.
