*The following article is written from an Out of Universe perspective.*

The Time of the Daleks was the seventh and final story of Season 38 of Doctor Who. It was written by Justin Richards and directed by David Tucker and featured Richard E. Grant as the Doctor and Gillian Kearney as Lou Madison.

This was the last story to feature Lou Madison.

Synopsis

The Doctor has always admired the work of William Shakespeare. So he is a little surprised that Lou doesn't hold the galaxy's greatest playwright in the same esteem. In fact, she's never heard of him. Which the Doctor thinks is quite improbable.

General Mariah Learman, ruling Britain after the Eurowars, is one of Shakespeare's greatest admirers and is convinced her time machine will enable her to see the plays' original performances. Which the Doctor believes is extremely unlikely.

The Daleks just want to help. They want Learman to get her time machine working. They want Lou to appreciate the first-ever performance of Julius Caesar. They believe that Shakespeare is the greatest playwright ever to have existed and venerate his memory.

Which the Doctor knows is utterly impossible.
