Synopsis

Tracking a mysterious energy signal, the Doctor boards a London bus upon which cat burglar Lady Christina de Souza is also a passenger. Suddenly, the bus is catapulted through a wormhole to San Helios, on the other side of the universe. The planet seems to be just one enormous desert, but after encountering stranded Tritovore traders, the Doctor and Christina learn that San Helios is meant to be a bustling world of billions. Soon, it becomes clear that the wormhole and the devastation of San Helios are linked... and the Earth may be destined for a similar fate.

Critics' reviews

"A decent distraction from the upcoming specials that we really want to see."

Simon Brew: Den of Geek
"'Planet Of The Dead' is, at its best, just a bit of harmless fun, and there are times when this approach can leave the story feeling weightless"

Alasdair Wilkins: AV Club
