Storyline
Plot Summary |
The Doctor, an alien time traveller from the planet Gallifrey, is transporting the remains of his nemesis, the Master back to their homeworld. However the Master is not as dead as the Doctor thinks. The Master's essence escapes and sabotages the TARDIS, the Doctor's time machine causing it to crash land in San Franscisco on December 30th 1999. The Doctor requires a beryllium atomic clock to repair the TARDIS, but is shot as he leaves it. Taken to hospital, the Doctor's seventh regeneration is triggered by a surgeon, confused by his alien physiology, while the Master takes over a paramedic's body. He needs a Time Lord's body to survive and be able to regenerate again so he needs the Doctor's. The newly regenerated the Doctor must fight to save his own eighth body, and the world when the Master sabotages the TARDIS' power source. By midnight on December 31st 1999, the Earth will be pulled through this power-source, a mini-black hole, and only the Doctor can stop if only he can remember who he is...

Trivia | When The Doctor rifles through a locker looking for clothes, we see him momentarily admiring a long scarf. Doctor Who (1963)'s Fourth Doctor, Tom Baker, wore a long scarf in his regular costume. See more » |
Goofs | At the start of the movie, when The Seventh Doctor seals The Master's remains shut with the sonic screwdriver, the head of the screwdriver is slightly out of focus. This is explained in a 2005 interview by Sylvester McCoy; he was holding it the wrong way around. See more » |

Quotes |
The Doctor:
Wait, I remember. I'm with my father, we're lying back in the grass, it's a warm Gallifreyan night... Grace: Gallifreyan? The Doctor: Gallifrey. Yes, this must be where I live. Now where is that? Grace: I've never heard of it. What do you remember? The Doctor: A meteor storm. The sky above us was dancing with lights. Purple, green, brilliant yellow. Yes! Grace: What? The Doctor: These shoes. They fit perfectly! See more » |
