Jodie Whittaker. Jodie Auckland Whittaker (born 17 June 1982) is an English actress. She is best known for her roles on television as Beth Latimer in Broadchurch (2013–2017) and the Thirteenth Doctor in Doctor Who (2017–2022; 2025).
The Doctor, sometimes known as Doctor Who, is the protagonist of the long-running BBC science fiction television series Doctor Who. An extraterrestrial Time Lord, the Doctor travels the universe in a time travelling spaceship called the TARDIS, often with companions.
Georgia Elizabeth Tennant (née Moffett) is an English actress and producer. She played Detective Inspector Samantha Nixon's daughter Abigail in The Bill, Jenny in the Doctor Who episode "The Doctor's Daughter" and Lady Vivian in the show Merlin.
And if The Doctor is born after that era, and is therefore a timelord, then naturally Susan is born AFTER the Doctor because she's his grandaughter. Meaning she's born after the same era. Meaning she's a Timelord.
The Doctor is recalled to the Division as she is turned into a Weeping Angel. Meanwhile, Bel lands her ship on the planet Puzano, where she witnesses many Flux survivors tricked into being imprisoned in a Passenger by Azure. She gives Namaca, who she saved from Azure, a message before pursuing Azure.
All Time Lords are part of the species known as Gallifreyans, but not every Gallifreyan is a Time Lord, though many involved with the show have interchangeably referenced the Time Lords being either a race or a species.
If a Weeping Angel fed on a Time Lord, they can use the future regeneration energy to create more of themselves. This happened when the Sixth Doctor was sent back in time and the Tenth Doctor took him back to his TARDIS, creating seven other angels, equal to the number of regenerations separating them.
Played by Anita Dobson
"Never seen a TARDIS before?" Ruby Sunday's elderly neighbour Mrs Flood takes pride in two things: her physical fitness, and her knowledge of the goings-on in the neighbourhood.
Clara Oswald is one of the Doctor's most extraordinary companions. In order to help the Doctor she allowed the time winds to tear her into countless different iterations of herself, or as River phrased it, 'A million versions of you, living and dying all over time and space, like echoes.
Ruby stands 73 yards from Gwilliam, causing him to encounter the woman. After speaking to her, he flees in terror and immediately resigns. The woman does not leave, and Ruby spends another forty years alone.
Ncuti Gatwa says he left “Doctor Who” after only two seasons because of how it physically, emotionally, mentally impacted him. “Because I'm getting old and my body was tired,” Gatwa told Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg, adding that the show “takes a lot out of you — physically, emotionally, mentally.
A common anatomical variation is being born with more than ten fingers or more than ten toes. Former Doctor Who actor David Tennant this week confirmed he has 11 toes. He says he was born with an extra toe on his right foot, meaning he has polydactyly.
While she was shot through one of her twin hearts, as she was not a Time Lord she was unable to regenerate and recover from her fatal injury. However, due to her death being in close proximity to the Source, its gaseous compound revived her.
Fun fact: Susan's Gallifreyan name was Arkytior which translates to rose.
Indeed. Clara can have "adventures" in her special time travelling immortal space buddy machine. But she can never age, presumably she can't return to her family or her life or her school, her "human" life is effectively over, courtesy of dying in the Doctors care.
It is stated in the finale that what rendered the Timelords sterile (for a second time, if you, like me, take EU as canon) happened recently, with the Master's genetic bomb that wiped out the rest of the Timelords.
While appearing on The One Show, via ScreenRant, he was asked about Doctor Who. Gatwa said he regretted never getting to face off against the Doctor's most iconic enemies. "I never got to fight a Dalek. A Dalek or a Cyberman," he said.
Over the next 11 episodes shared by Eleven and River, their relationship truly blossomed. River, who was integral to the plot at this point, became the Doctor's ultimate confidant and his soulmate.
Clara's heroics eventually cost her greatly. While trying to prove Rigsy's innocence of a false murder accusation she took a Chronolock, which killed the one branded, from him. The Raven, who was originally set to kill Rigsy, killed her instead.
However, the Master (John Simm) is aboard the ship and has initiated the Cybermen's genesis. Missy's loyalties are torn between the Doctor and her old self. After initially betraying the Doctor, she later stands alongside him against a Cyberman army, stabbing her past self causing the Master to regenerate.
Among the most sought-after lost episodes is Episode 4 of the final William Hartnell serial, The Tenth Planet, which ends with the First Doctor's regeneration into the Second.
The Rani's TARDIS was a comparatively advanced TARDIS compared with the Doctor's model. It had a functional chameleon circuit, and uniquely could be operated by Stattenheim remote control.
While travelling through the wreckage, Amy started counting down from 10, although was initially unaware she was doing so, this, in fact, being the Angel; to prevent it from killing her, she was forced to keep her eyes shut.
Flesh and Stone shows Weeping Angels taking several rounds of up-close automatic gunfire without any signs of damage. This seemingly indicates that the "stone" form the Angels lock themselves into isn't typical stone, and can't easily be smashed.
After failing to escape the Extraction Squad, the Doctor was transformed into a Weeping Angel in order to be transported outside of the universe, to Division.
