Doctor Who showrunner Russell T. Davies teases Ruby Sunday’s backstory and a major plot arc for season 14. Played by Millie Gibson, Ruby Sunday will be the new companion of Ncuti Gatwa’s Fifteenth Doctor in Doctor Who season 14. She will make her debut on the show for this year’s seasonal special, which releases on December 25.
Speaking with SFX Magazine, Davies offers more details about Ruby’s backstory. Check out the quote from Davies below:
“It’s unashamedly the story of Ruby, it’s called ‘The Church On Ruby Road’ because that’s where the church is where Ruby was left as a baby in 2004. So, she’s named after that church. She’s a foundling, so no one knows who her mother or father is. She was named after the church on Ruby Road.”
“Not every question is answered in the Christmas special and that continues all the way through to the most magnificent finale ever shot on planet Earth. No hype! I swear that’s true.”
