Inspired by

Doctor Who showrunner Russell T Davies has


hinted that a sequence from the show's 2023
Christmas special will be revisited in future
episodes – and there may be more to the scene
than first meets the eye.

Festive episode The Church on Ruby Road took us


back to when Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson) was an
infant, abandoned on the steps of a church by a
mysterious hooded figure.

Ruby was briefly removed from history when a


horde of time-travelling goblins snatched her up as
a baby, but the Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) was able to
follow them back in time and rescue the child Ruby.

However, that won't be the last time we visit the


church, as Davies revealed when discussing
previous and future Doctor Who Christmas
episodes.

"They're always different every year," he said. "This


one's quite a fable – the foundling on the church
doorstep in the snow...

"That story then continues into the series – we


come back to that church. There's all sorts of
things... there were people in those scenes you
don't know were there. There's a lot more to come."

Who else was lurking, out of sight, at the church?


And who exactly is the hooded individual who
abandoned Ruby? Could the mysterious Mrs Flood
– who seems to know all about time travel – be
involved?

Michelle Greenidge – who plays Ruby's adoptive


mother Carla Sunday – has hinted that fans 'aren't
ready' for the twists and turns to come in the next
season.

"I don't think the audience are going to be ready,"


she said. "It is incredible. The story arc, the writing...
you'll be gripped. I'm so ecstatic with how things
have played out."

Guests star including Aneurin Barnard, Indira


Varma, Lenny Rush and Jonathan Groff will join
leads Gatwa and Gibson for the new episodes.

Davies has also revealed that an upcoming story


will feature the Beatles as characters.
