The Doctor, Rose and Adam travel , years into the future and land on Satellite 5, a space station orbiting the Earth. From the moment they arrive, the Doctor feels that something is wrong but he can't quite put his finger on it. Satellite 5 provides channels of news and information to everyone on Earth and the crew, all humans, have a chip implanted in them allowing their brains to work as computers.
As they explore the station, the travelers learn of the mysterious Level that some of them are promoted to but are never seen again. The Doctor and Rose go to that mysterious level to find out just who - or what - is up there.

Adam meanwhile tries to access the computer banks with the view to taking advanced knowledge back to present day Earth. Although this episode has an interesting premise and Simon Pegg steals the show, it is ruined for me by the sheer stupidity and annoying nature of Adam Mitchell. I'm glad they got rid of him. It's a good episode that's could have been better.

Edit Cast Episode complete credited cast: Basically it applies to every aspect of life and work. And, since long term planning and investing for the future are not new concepts, it seems to be a new way of saying old things. So why are we talking about it so much. First, I think today's hyper-fast paced, what feels good now, world makes us feel pressured and stressed.
We get caught up in the daily demands that ultimately make us miserable. With too many choices and too much information, everything seems so darn important. It becomes difficult to set priorities or to allot our time and energy.
The Long Game - Wikipedia
We get caught up in the short game. But if we place these daily actions into a longer term perspective they became less important, less emotionally loaded, and less urgent. Because if we ask ourselves if each task or decision will be important in 5 minutes or 5 hours or even 5 days, so many times the answer is no.
When we are playing the long game every task on which we choose to work now connects to a longer term goal or desired outcome, a bigger picture. In a sense we are not asking ourselves how much something matters, we are asking how long it matters. Another critical aspect of playing the long game is learning from not being stellar or fabulous all the time.
The daily annoyances, failures and roadblocks that can get us down become reframed as opportunities for learning and growth. So instead of screwing it up we are learning ways of doing it better the next time. It is mistakes and tough times that are more important than doing something "right" or easily the first time.

Sometimes we call this perseverance or grit, and it is key in long term success. That ability to try and try again, like the Little Engine That Could, and to learn from failures is inherently linked to a longer term plan. I also think long term relationship building is at the core of our desire to play the long game, whether it be with customers or your next love interest. In an era of texts, tweets, and "that was so five minutes ago," where some decisions are made by swiping left or right, we feel the loss of building meaningful relationships over time. I read in an article about the long game in dating that taking your time and being patient with a woman is mostly seen as old fashioned.
I don't buy that at all and I am not old fashioned, just plain older and wiser.
