Modern Series Episode 167:
Can You Hear Me?

Plot

No sooner has the Doctor dropped her companions off in modern-day Sheffield to reconnect with their personal lives than the TARDIS is invaded by a sinister entity called Zellin. The Doctor heads to Syria in 1380 to investigate, and there finds a hospital which has been attacked by creatures out of nightmare. Meanwhile, Zellin makes his presence known to Yaz and Ryan, while Graham begins to experience visions of a mysterious woman, calling out for aid. The trail of clues leads the time travellers to a platform orbiting a devastated solar system and into the heart of an ancient trap.
