Dr Who

[Betsy]

Did anyone understand last night's Dr Who?

Who was the old lady following Ruby around for her whole life? Why did people run away from the old lady? Why did they all reject Ruby when they had spoken the old lady? Did 75 yards have any significance? What happened to the Doctor? Why couldn't Ruby get back into the TARDIS? And why did it go back to the start again at the end of the episode?

I am clearly missing something obvious.

I haven't watched it yet but am LOVING Ncuti Gatwa as the new Dr.

He is a very good Doctor.

When you've watched it can you please explain it to me as I really didn't have a clue what was going on!

The old lady was Ruby, didn't you watch it to the end, she went back to the Tardis as an old lady and saw the Doctor and young Ruby, when the fairy circle wasn't stood on, young Ruby looked back at the old woman (herself) she had disappeared.

I did watch it to the end but didn't understand that it was Ruby as an old lady. So why did everyone run away when Old Ruby spoke to them?

 

[Bertie & Jelly]

no idea either.

I’ve never understood Dr Who so you’re still doing far better than me!

I'm not sure about that bit.

Clearly 75 yards was significant. Any ideas about that?

I think 75 yards was so Ruby couldn’t recognise her.
There’s also something about a temporal paradox if the same person meets themself .
It was a slightly confusing episode I must admit
