They jumped from strangers to best friends in the blink of an eye.
I’m disappointed to admit I am struggling to care Ncuti Gatwa’s first season has offered some of the Doctor Who’s best moments and heartfelt episodes, but there’s a flaw at the heart of it that is impossible to ignore. The new era, helmed by returning showrunner Russell T Davies, stars Ncuti as the Fifteenth Doctor and Millie Gibson as his companion Ruby Sunday. While the pair have been traversing time and space battling terrible monsters, they have also noticed strange happenings.
But that is bafflingly lacking this season. Bille Piper’s expulsion into a parallel universe is only gut-wrenching because we have had the time to become invested The Christmas special, The Church on Ruby Road, starts well with the Doctor and Ruby connecting over their shared lack of identity . But since then the show has completely abandoned any attempt to nurture their bond. Instead they jumped from strangers to best friends in the blink of an eye when the full season kicked off in April.
