After locating the bridge, they are confronted by a pair of unknown entities from outside the known universe, taking the forms of imperfect copies of the Doctor and Donna. After a series of interactions, the Doctor figures out that the creatures are attempting to use them as a way to reach the known universe, and that they learn by forcing their targets to act quickly and impulsively. They discover that the ship's captain initiated an extremely delayed self-destruct sequence before killing herself to prevent the entities from taking control of the ship. The Doctor speeds up the self-destruct sequence, and the TARDIS returns, allowing the Doctor and Donna to escape while the entities are destroyed.

Ryan Woodrow from <i>Men's Journal</i> described the specials as having revitalised the show, including fan-favourite elements from its later 2000s era while also pushing its narrative forward. Woodrow stated that the first special lived to the expectations of the past year, while complimenting Davies's inclusion of LGBTQ+ elements, but was also critical of the handling of the "meta-crisis" storyline. He described the second special as a "spot-on balance between humor and drama" while comparing the episode to other highly-rated episodes like "<a href="/wiki/Midnight_(Doctor_Who)" title="Midnight (Doctor Who)">Midnight</a>" (2008) and "<a href="/wiki/Heaven_Sent_(Doctor_Who)" title="Heaven Sent (Doctor Who)">Heaven Sent</a>" (2015), and the third special as the "most action-packed and exciting of the three" while also having issues with the concept of bi-generation. Overall, Woodrow believed that the specials successfully rekindled the love for <i>Doctor Who</i> after a divisive era.<sup id="cite_ref-215" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-215"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>214<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Emirhan Çakmak of <i>Daily Sabah</i> praised the chemistry between Tennant's and Tate's characters, describing the specials as "emotional". He described "Wild Blue Yonder" as initially slow but eventually raising the level of excitement and intensity, and described Harris's character of the Toymaker as "one of the most iconic villains from the classic series". Çakmak commented on the character's German accent as being "redundant" and would have preferred if all three specials had focused on the Toymaker. In general, he summarised the three specials as "both rewarding and unsatisfying", though a "pleasure" at the same time.<sup id="cite_ref-216" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-216"><span
