The BBC has released the official story synopsis for the sixth episode of Series 10, 'Extremis'.
In the Haereticum – the Vatican’s secret library of blasphemy – there is an ancient book known only as The Veritas. Throughout history, anyone who has ever read it has immediately taken their own life. Now a new translation is online, and the danger is spreading. The Vatican appeals to the Doctor. Will he read The Veritas? But can even the Doctor survive the ultimate truth?
The episode is written by Steven Moffat and directed by Daniel Nettheim. The Doctor is played by Peter Capaldi, Bill by Pearl Mackie and Nardole by Matt Lucas. Michelle Gomez guest stars as Missy.
Steven Moffat has also confirmed in the latest edition of Doctor Who Magazine that we will finally discover what's inside the mysterious 'Vault' in this episode, and so we won't have to wait until the series finale, as originally speculated!
'Extremis' will air on Saturday, 20th May on BBC One.
