Rani Chandra, Clyde Langer, and Luke Smith reunite with an old foe, encountering three thrilling new adventures in the world of Doctor Who. In the first story, "Time Schisms!" by Lizbeth Myles, podcast fan Anna believes there's a time traveler working in her local post office. Naturally, she turns to Rani Chandra for help in investigating this intriguing phenomenon. Initially skeptical, Rani is shocked when an old friend warns her off, suggesting that there might be something more to the situation. Undeterred, Rani embarks on her quest for the truth, only to find that it might drive a wedge between her and Luke.

In the second story, "The Star-Crossed Diversion" by Alison Winter, Rani and Clyde find themselves waking up in a nightmare future where the Bane have successfully taken over the Earth. Humans are reduced to docile cattle, with the planet's resources being sold to the highest bidder. Rani's uncle, Crispin Blake, believes that all opposition has been crushed, but the new arrivals are ready to fight. They are the last hope of resistance, and Rani and Clyde must find a way to return home. However, their journey is not without its challenges.

The third and final story, "The Ghost of Bannerman Road" by Jonathan Morris, takes the trio back to 13 Bannerman Road, the site of their previous adventures with Sarah Jane. The place is now locked up, derelict, and under the watch of UNIT, as top scientists are mysteriously disappearing, and alien technology is being stolen from laboratories.
