When the TARDIS returns the Doctor and Bill to London, they discover themselves on a frozen Thames River, with an elephant walking towards them on the ice . </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 267 </Th> <Td> </Td> <Td> "Thin Ice" </Td> <Td> Bill Anderson </Td> <Td> Sarah Dollard </Td> <Td> 29 April 2017 (2017 - 04 - 29) </Td> <Td> 5.61 </Td> <Td> 84 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="8"> The Doctor and Bill find they have arrived in 1814 London, in the midst of a frost fair on the frozen Thames .
