After last week events, what can follow it?



Well; across Peru, Madagascar and Hong Kong, the Doctor and friends face a deadly global threat.


What connects a missing astronaut in the Indian Ocean, birds behaving strangely in Peru and a US naval officer who washes up on a Madagascan beach?


The Doctor, Yaz, Ryan and Graham split up to investigate these mysterious events across 21st-century planet Earth, but as the mystery deepens and lives are put at risk, they face a deadly race against time to save humanity.

It reminded me of a Virgin New Adventure - not a particular story, more the way it started, with three different locales and the regulars suddenly popping up out of the blue. I enjoyed it a lot, and although there was clearly an environmental message at the root of it, it was tackled with a great more subtlety than Orphan 55 a few weeks back.

Not sure what the point of the Doctor's voiceover was, it didn't add anything, but all in all quite a good story... although they perhaps glossed over the submarine a little, you'd have thought that since they'd stumbled upon it the Doctor & co might have checked there weren't any more survivors on board?
