Doctor Who - 'The Woman Who Lived' Preview: Who's Ashildr?

The BBC has released a new preview of this week's Doctor Who episode, The Woman Who Lived. 

The preview shows a conversation between the Doctor (Peter Capaldi) and Ashildr (Maisie Williams) hundreds of years after the events of The Girl Who Died (You can read our review here). Ashildr already forgot her name, and barely remembers her life in that small Viking village. Now, she wants to be known as "Me", and describes herself as “her own companion,” allowing the Doctor to see what his near immortal existence might be like without his own travelling companions.

Watch the preview below: 

In The Woman Who Lived, In The Woman Who Lived, it’s England, 1651. Deadly highwayman 'the Knightmare' and his sidekick stalk the dark streets of London. But when they find loot that is not of this world, they come face to face with the Doctor. Who is the Knightmare in league with? And can the Doctor avoid the hangman's noose and protect the Earth from a devilish betrayal?

Doctor Who airs Saturdays at 9 p.m. ET  at BBC America.
