The Doctor's Companion: Doctor Who the Long Way Round episodes

August 04, 2024 5.11 – Terminus
Still manipulated by the demands of the Black Guardian, Turlough sabotages the TARDIS, causing it to anchor itself to the nearest spaceship. Once on board, they quickly join forces with a pair of fashion-forward space pirates and discover that the bulk of its occupants are terminally ill from a leprosy-like disease called Lazar and are being taken to the farthest reaches of space where they hope to be healed by an experimental procedure lead by a group of Hydromel addicted armored men and a giant dog headed creature called the Garm.
As Nyssa falls victim to the Lazar disease and forced through the experimental procedure, the Doctor realizes that a fuel leak in the ship could cause the destruction of the universe.
