Doctor Who 6.50pm BBC1 Available on iPlayer from 12 midnight on Friday 31 May

For an example of the flexibility of Doctor Who's format, consider last week's episode and the one on offer tonight. Seven days ago, we had an MR James-style chiller set on Earth that featured very little in the way of actual special effects. Now, we get a tale that writer Russell T Davies felt would have been impossible to realise when he conceived it 15 years ago because of the limitations of technology.

Thankfully, the digital effects industry has caught up with his imagination, so he's now able to whisk the Doctor and Ruby off to the peaceful world of Finetime. As ever, though, utopias have a habit of turning out to be anything but — enter the terror stalking its citizens.
