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

    Tragedy Day was the first story of Season 32 of Doctor Who. It was written by Gareth Roberts, directed by Colin Cant and featured Richard Griffiths as the Doctor and Lisa Bowerman as Bernice Summerfield.

    Synopsis

    In Empire City on the planet Olleril, it's time for the annual Tragedy Day — when the privileged few celebrate their generosity to the masses.

    But this year, something is different. Hideous creatures infest the waters around an island that doesn't officially exist. Assassins arrive to carry out a killing that may endanger the entire universe. A being known as the Supreme One tests horrific weapons. And a secret order of monks observes the growing chaos.

    Five minutes after they arrive on Olleril, the TARDIS crew know they want to leave. But Bernice is imprisoned in a sinister refugee camp, and the Doctor is in the custody of a brutal police gang. There is no way out.
