Doctor Who showrunner Russell T Davies has hinted that a sequence from the show\u2019s 2023 Christmas special will be revisited in future episodes \u2013 and there may be more to the scene than first meets the eye.<\/p>\n
Festive episode The Church on Ruby Road<\/a> took us back to when Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson<\/a>) was an infant, abandoned on the steps of a church by a mysterious hooded figure.<\/p>\n Ruby was briefly removed from history when a horde of time-travelling goblins snatched her up as a baby, but the Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa<\/a>) was able to follow them back in time and rescue the child Ruby.<\/p>\n However, that won\u2019t be the last time we visit the church, as Davies revealed when discussing previous and future Doctor Who<\/a> Christmas episodes.<\/p>\n \u201cThey\u2019re always different every year,\u201d he said. \u201cThis one\u2019s quite a fable \u2013 the foundling on the church doorstep in the snow\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThat story then continues into the series \u2013 we come back to that church. There\u2019s all sorts of things\u2026 there were people in those scenes you don\u2019t know were there. There\u2019s a lot more to come.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n 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<\/a> \u2013 who seems to know all about time travel \u2013 be involved?<\/p> Michelle Greenidge \u2013 who plays Ruby\u2019s adoptive mother Carla Sunday \u2013 has hinted that<\/a> fans \u2018aren\u2019t ready\u2019 for the twists and turns to come in the next season.<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t think the audience are going to be ready,\u201d she said. \u201cIt is incredible. The story arc, the writing\u2026 you\u2019ll be gripped. I\u2019m so ecstatic with how things have played out.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Guests star including Aneurin Barnard<\/a>, Indira Varma<\/a>, Lenny Rush<\/a> and Jonathan Groff<\/a> will join leads Gatwa and Gibson for the new episodes.<\/p>\n Davies has also revealed that an upcoming story will feature the Beatles as characters<\/a>.<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n![\"Ruby](\"https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2023\/12\/457023-cb53ddb.jpg?quality=90&resize=620%2C413\" "\\"457023,Doctor")
