"We need to reach out. We need to continue the line..."
On a windswept northern shore, the islanders believe the worst they have to fear is a Viking attack. Then the burning comes. Water will not stop it. It consumes everything in its path - yet the burned still speak.
The Doctor encounters a people under attack from a power they cannot possibly understand. They have no weapons, no strategy and no protection against a fire sent to engulf them all. The islanders must take on a ruthless alien force in a world without technology; but at least they have the Doctor on their side... Don't they?
A thrilling adventure starring the Doctor, as played by Matt Smith.
Industry Reviews
"A page turner for the fans and perhaps for more casual viewers of the series, although Dark Horizons may not come to be known as a Doctor Who classic, it's an entertaining adventure for Matt Smith's Doctor."
