Winter
Winter sees the pair meet up years after their last encounter in the strangest of circumstances. Long after the events of Terminus, Nyssa has settled down with Lasarti and is now the mother of an infant daughter. Recurring psychic visions of the Doctor, and another figure who may either be her father or The Master, convince her to use a special machine to allow her to examine her dreams while conscious. Instead, she finds herself entering the Doctor's dream, one in which he's a normal man, a father and husband weathering a brutal winter, and not a traveller of time and space. The Doctor does not remember Nyssa, although he soon realizes that his understanding of his life is incomplete.
- Lasarti — Jeremy James
