Having mastered the Extremis video game, it’s time for the Doctor to take his PDF file of what to do in case of an invasion out on the road in these new images from The Pyramid At The End Of The World.
Co-written by Peter Harness (The Zygon Invasion/Inversion) and showrunner Steven Moffat (Blink), the episode, the second of a trilogy of episode featuring the beautifully creepy Monks, finds the Doctor (Peter Capaldi), Bill (Pearl Mackie), and Nardole (Matt Lucas), at the centre of a pyramid-shaped mystery.

The Doctor, Bill and Nardole face an alien invasion unlike any other, and before conquest can begin, these aliens need the consent of humanity…
