Synopsis: The Tardis materialises on 4 March 1215 during a joust held
in the presence of King John. The King welcomes the travelers, whom he calls
his demons, but his actions towards his Barons are unusually hostile.
The Doctor discovers the King is, in reality, a shape-changing android,
Kamelion, whom the Master found on Xeriphas. Disguised as Sir Gilles Estram,
the King's Champion, the evil Time Lord plots to turn the Barons against
the King, and prevent the signing of the Magna Carta, thereby altering history.
The Doctor eventually wrests Kamelion's control away from the Master, exposing
his enemy's plot. The android joins the Tardis' crew.
