Iceberg (serial)

Iceberg was the seventh story of Season 34 of Doctor Who. It was written by David Banks, directed by Nicholas Briggs and featured Michael French as the Doctor and Rakie Ayola as Janet Wells.

Synopsis
In 2018 the world is about to be overwhelmed by a disaster that might destroy human civilisation: the inversion of the Earth's magnetic field. Deep in an Antarctic base, the FLIPback team is frantically devising a system to reverse the change in polarity.

Above them, the SS Elysium carries its jet-set passengers on the ultimate cruise. Onboard is Ruby Duvall, a journalist sent to record the FLIPback moment. Instead, she finds a man called the Doctor, who is locked out of the strange green box he says is merely a part of his time machine. And she finds old enemies of the Doctor: silver giants at work beneath the ice.
