Plot

Template:Spoiler As the trap set in The Lazarus Experiment closes, The Doctor, Martha, and Jack find themselves in a fight for survival. Who are the Toclafane? What secrets lie at the heart of the Valiant? What is the power of the Archangel? And most importantly, who, or what, is Mr. Saxon?

Cast

Cast notes

The casting of Tom Ellis as Tom Milligan has been reported by The Sun, and has now been officially confirmed by Doctor Who Magazine. He has been spotted on a beach with Freema Agyeman (who was wearing SAS-style clothing). Similarly, The Sun has reported that Elize Du Toit's character is named "Miss Dexter" and is a villain.

The Sun has also reported that John Simm will appear in the finale as the Doctor's arch-nemesis the Master.[4] Although this has not been confirmed or denied by official sources, an interview with The Independent on Sunday seems to confirm Simm's casting.[5] Simm refused to confirm that he had been cast in an interview broadcast on BBC 6Music on February 13 2007, but also did not deny the story outright.[6]

Clips at the series three press launch have shown Simm and on the Newsround report on the 22nd March show Tennant and Simm both referred to the character as 'Mr Saxon'. Tennant also goes onto say that he's 'more than a match for the Doctor in ways he hadn't thought possible'.
