Modern Series Episodes 201 & 202:
Wish World / The Reality War

Plot

The Rani has remade the world. Having kidnapped the newborn God of Wishes and enhanced his powers with the Vindicator energies that her Mrs Flood incarnation stole from the Doctor, she has latched onto Conrad Clark's dreams to create a very different Earth. The Doctor now believes himself to be John Smith, husband to Belinda and father to Poppy. Even Ruby's sudden appearance at his door can do no more than sow doubt about this new reality. But this is all part of the Rani's plan, as she seeks to use the emergence of the Pantheon into the universe to locate a being who was lost long, long ago.
