The Twilight Project was the second story of Season 36 of Doctor Who. It was written by Mark Wright & Cavan Scott, directed by Marcus Mortimer and featured Paul McGann as the Doctor and Laurie Holden as Sammy Thompson.
Synopsis
In the renovated docklands of South East London, on the bank of the River Thames, the doors of the Dusk are open for business. Bets are called, cards are dealt and roulette wheels spun. As fortunes are won and lost, an inhuman killer stalks the local avenues and alleyways — a killer with a taste for human flesh. Is there more to casino owner Reggie "the Gent" Mead or is he just a common gangster? What secrets are hidden in the bowels of the Dusk? And what connection does the apparently sleazy Bermondsey casino have to a long-buried government initiative known as the Twilight Project? The Doctor must form uneasy alliances where the line between friend and enemy is blurred, playing games of chance...
But are the stakes too high?
