Christmas Day gifted us a new Doctor Who<\/a> special and while The Church on Ruby Road<\/a> could definitely be watched by even the newest of newcomers, there were plenty of references for seasoned Whovians.<\/p>\n Ncuti Gatwa\u2019s Fifteenth Doctor not only made a reference to the Timeless Child reveal<\/a> from Chris Chibnall\u2019s<\/a> era of the show, but also made a callback to the 60th anniversary special Wild Blue Yonder<\/a>, which featured a cameo from Isaac Newton, played by Nathaniel Curtis.<\/a><\/p>\n Thanks to a visit from David Tennant\u2019s Fourteenth Doctor and Catherine Tate\u2019s Donna Noble, Newton ended up calling what we know as gravity, \u201cmavity\u201d \u2013 and it was mentioned again in The Church on Ruby Road.<\/p>\n With the Doctor and Ruby hanging off a ladder as they\u2019re whisked off to the goblin ship, the Doctor whips out his intelligent gloves, which take all of the duo\u2019s weight.<\/p>\n As Ruby marvels at how light she feels, the Doctor explains: \u201cAll the mass and density and mavity exist in the glove, not in you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Sounds like \u201cmavity\u201d is here to stay!<\/p>\n The Church on Ruby Road saw the Doctor and Ruby embark on their first adventure together, to defeat a hoard of goblins who feast on coincidence.<\/p> It also introduced plenty of new cast members, including Michelle Greenidge<\/a> as Ruby\u2019s mum Carla, Angela Wynter as Ruby\u2019s grandmother Cherry, and Anita Dobson as next door neighbour Mrs Flood<\/a>.<\/p> ![\"Nathaniel](\"https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2023\/11\/nathaniel-curtis-doctor-who-5818533.jpg?quality=90&resize=620%2C413\" "\\"nathaniel-curtis-doctor-who\\"\/")
