Enredo

A Décima Terceira Doutora e seus companheiros resgatam um trem-bala no espaço de um ataque do CyberMaster, mas Dan quase morre durante a fuga. Tendo desenvolvido um senso de sua mortalidade, Dan se separa da Doutora para voltar a viver sua vida. Um Dalek renegado contata o Doutor, oferecendo informações sobre um plano Dalek para destruir a humanidade.

As ex-companheiras da Doutora, Tegan Jovanka e Ace, investigam o sequestro de uma dúzia dos principais sismólogos do mundo e a adição do rosto de Grigori Rasputin desfigurando quinze pinturas famosas. Kate Stewart convida a Doutora para a sede da UNIT para encontrar Tegan e Ace e discutir suas descobertas. A Doutora esclarece que o novo rosto nas pinturas é, na verdade, o do Mestre, com quem ela vai se encontrar em um congresso de sismologia em Nápoles.

The Doctor learns the Master and his CyberMasters have allied with the Daleks to end humanity in the present by triggering eruptions from every volcano on Earth simultaneously. The Doctor meets the renegade Dalek, discovering the other Daleks allowed it to contact her in order to capture her, which they do after killing the traitor.

UNIT arrests the Master, who reveals he sent a miniaturised version of Ashad to Tegan, who assumed it was a warning from the Doctor. This enlarges and acts as a portal bringing Ashad and a large number of Cybermen into UNIT HQ, freeing the Master. The Daleks take the Doctor to the Master in 1916 Russia, who uses Gallifreyan technology and the Qurunx (an enslaved energy being) to impose a forced regeneration into him. In her mind, the Doctor encounters manifestations of her First, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh and Eighth incarnations, who inform her it may be possible to undo the forced regeneration with outside help.

An AI program the Doctor created, using images of the Fifth, Seventh, Fugitive, and Thirteenth Doctors, leads Ace to meet with former companion Graham O'Brien and destroy the Dalek volcano machine, Tegan to destroy the Cyberman converter and CyberMasters in UNIT HQ just as they are about to convert Kate, and Yaz and previous ally Vinder to capture the Master and make him undo the Doctor's transformation. Defeated, the Master mortally wounds the Doctor with the Qurunx's energy beam, triggering the regeneration process.

The Doctor takes Yaz home before departing alone. Yaz attends a support group of former companions including Graham, Dan, Kate, Ace, Tegan, Ian Chesterton, Jo Jones and Melanie Bush. The Doctor travels to a cliff where she regenerates into the Fourteenth Doctor, who is alarmed to discover he has become physically similar to his tenth incarnation.

Elenco

William Russell (fotografado em 2012) revive Ian Chesterton pela primeira vez desde a sua saída em 1965.

The BBC announced Whittaker and Chibnall's departures from the series in2021. Gill confirmed that the special would be her final appearance in the series on 3-05-2022.

A trailer for the special was released in April 2022, and confirmed the return of Jacob Anderson as Vinder and Jemma Redgrave as Kate Stewart, both of whom last appeared in the thirteenth series. The Master, played by Sacha Dhawan, and Ashad, played by Patrick O'Kane, who both appeared in the twelfth series, also return. The special also sees the return of former companions Tegan Jovanka, Ace and Graham O'Brien portrayed by Janet Fielding, Sophie Aldred and Bradley Walsh, respectively. The Daleks and the Cybermen also appear.

In cameo roles, the First, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth and Fugitive Doctors appear. The First Doctor is portrayed by David Bradley, who previously portrayed the character in the episodes "The Doctor Falls" and "Twice Upon a Time" (both 2017), as well as portraying the original First Doctor actor William Hartnell in the bio-drama An Adventure in Space and Time (2013), while the others are played by their respective original actors: Peter Davison, Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy, Paul McGann and Jo Martin. According to Chibnall, Fourth Doctor actor Tom Baker was invited to appear in the episode but declined. David Tennant, who previously portrayed the Tenth Doctor, makes a brief appearance as the Fourteenth Doctor.

Former companions Ian Chesterton, Jo Jones and Melanie Bush, portrayed by William Russell, Katy Manning and Bonnie Langford, respectively, also appear in brief cameos. With this appearance, Russell, who last appeared as Ian in the final episode of The Chase in 1965, broke the Guinness World Record for the longest gap between TV appearances at 57 anos, 119 dias.

Filmagem

"The Power of the Doctor" was filmed throughout September 2021, directed by Jamie Magnus Stone, concluding on 13 October 2021. Tennant's appearance was filmed around May 2022, directed by Rachel Talalay. Returning showrunner Russell T Davies scripted the incoming Doctor's appearance, with his first line, a reference to his first words as the Tenth Doctor, being suggested by Tennant himself. The background of the regeneration scene, where the Doctor lands the TARDIS atop a cliff and looks out over the sea, was filmed by drone at Durdle Door in Dorset. The Lulworth Estate was not informed of the context of the scene when granting permission for the shoot, and after the episode's broadcast expressed concern that it would encourage viewers to place themselves in danger.

Among the musical cues heard in the episode is "Rasputin" by Germany-based pop and Eurodisco group Boney M, originally released in 1978; the Master, as played by Dhawan, portraying the Russian cleric, uses the song to accompany his impending transformation. Dhawan noted that he was given only "one or two takes" for the set piece, "and we didn't have that long to shoot it."
