Doctor Who: Flux's Multi-Doctor Plot Explainedĭoctor Who has a tradition of multi-Doctor episodes, but Doctor Who: Flux takes the idea in a very different direction - with Jodie Whittaker's Thirteenth Doctor split across time and space when her attempt to escape the Division goes wrong. The plot of Doctor Who: Flux episode 6 is a complex one, attempting to weave countless subplots together into a coherent narrative, while raising a promise of greater threats for the upcoming three Doctor Who specials in 2022. Here's the ending of Doctor Who: Flux explained, including how the Doctor learned of her future fate. The Doctor had already failed to prevent the destruction of much of the universe, but in Doctor Who: Flux episode 6 she faced the possibility all that remains would be destroyed as well.

From this vantage point, in a base outside time and space, Swarm and Azure resolved to destroy the universe and free the avatar of Time that had been contained on the Temple of Atropos with the Mouri. This proved a mistake, because Swarm created a psychic link with the Doctor when she was transported to the Division's headquarters, he was able to transport himself and Azure there as well. The Flux is a spatial event, and to complete the destruction Tecteun also released the Ravagers, Swarm and Azure, who possess the power to atrophy matter at contact. And so, Tecteun resolved to destroy this universe and move on to the next, with Doctor Who embracing the popular science-fiction concept of the multiverse. Tecteun has become obsessed with control, but the Doctor proved too potent a force of chaos by her reckoning, making the universe impossible to control. The Flux had been created by a secretive Doctor Who organization known as the Division, run by Tecteun, the apparently immortal Gallifreyan explorer who discovered the Timeless Child a billion years ago. The entire universe is threatened by a destructive phenomenon known as the Flux, an artificial event designed to destroy all that is, was, and ever will be. The dramatic ending of Doctor Who: Flux saw Jodie Whittaker's Doctor triumph, saving what remains of the universe - but also receive a prophecy of her ultimate death from the avatar of Time itself. The coronavirus pandemic forced current Doctor Who showrunner Chris Chibnall to adapt, and the result is Doctor Who: Flux, a single story woven through six episodes, in which the stakes are higher than ever before.
