      ..and he is implied to be a bad un, also though note that Roger Ap Gwilliam's slightly dodgy (he sounds and seems just a tad authoritarian, creepville and suspect) database of DNA is involved, so is this reliable information? Or is there any trick-stir-ry involved? After all The Toymaker: I played god and made him a Jack in the box, hmm, a Mad Jack maybe?, said whilst... manipulating a deck of playing cards. William is also Bill and The Toymaker trickery began with Stooky Bill. I get a slightly bad feeling about this, Ruby, don't delve too deeply into who your dad is, I have a feeling that you might not like what you find....
      Furthermore, good spot anyone (not me) that picked this up, you could be right because William Benjamin Garnet, William G - Gwilliam?
      One thing I have just twigged though, garnet is oddly associated with positive, protective things. Including protection whilst traveling. Although it is also said to bring misfortune to those who commit wrongs whilst wearing it. It is ... ... a red precious stone! Hmm, ruby-like then.
      Checking if the goblin song mentions garnished, not quite but almost so sort of - but did notice 'Now baby’s salted, she’s a treat,
      Her destiny, it’s time to meet!'

    I don't think Mrs Flood is anything good because of this exchange right here: "Do you believe in the power of prayer?" "I most certainly do." "Then tell your maker I will come to storm down his gates of gold and seize his kingdom in my true name." I think her having snow like Ruby is an indication that Ruby's ancestry is more than just her immediate biological parents.

    I think the main problem with the season 1 finale was that it felt too much like an ending when there's clearly going to be more. Like if they in universe addressed stuff like how the snow never got explained and is still an ongoing mystery it wouldn't have felt so frustrating.

    I'm a full-on Whovian and have seen the full series (from Eccleston) three times and grew up watching the old series (mostly Baker) and I LOVED the Finale and didn't find any fault in it.
    People have been watching this season with unrealistic and unfair expectations. The Doctor ALLLLLLLLLWAYS has an easy time in finally defeating the Big bad. Everything always eventually just fits into place or he does one simple thing and everything inexplicably works.
    He broke POTS TO DESTROY SATAN. He had people pray his name to defeat the master- THAT made sense?? Don't get me started on how he decided to blow up the TARDIS IN A BLOWING UP TARDIS to reset the universe and it made a perfect recreation of reality and everyone has a problem with the Doctor dragging the God of Death through the Timestream?? Maybe there could have been more in it if they had 12 episodes or more but thats not the fault of the writing. This wasnt underwhelming. It was super fun and dramaic and entertaining.
    Seriously people, LIGHTEN UP. it was a lot of fun and I can't wait till next season.

    The more I think about it, the more I think RTD deliberately made the finale underwhelming with little to no explanation for Ruby’s ability to create snow, and the Maestro’s fear when finding something very wrong with her. I feel like the finale was just a stepping stone to build us up to Ruby’s real reveal in the next season. My take is Ruby is a creation from another god. Just like Susan Triad was for Sutekh. Susan still had ordinary human parents.

    Lifetime obsessive fan since mid-Pertwee (Jo Grant was my first companion) and thought it was dreadful. Appalling writing, not so much dialled in as unable to even get a reception. Am also adopted and found the treatment of the subject to be facile in the extreme. If RTD is going to make smug jokes about appropriation, then maybe he should lead by example and stick to issues he has a genuine insight into. Ruby's mom is the woman who bought her up, who tucked her in every night, who changed her nappies, who nursed her when she was ill and comforted her nightmares. The casual obsession she feels for a woman who could not even get past feeling a bit awkward in order to muster the courage to find her own daughter is facile, and lacks any depth of understanding or empathy for the situation it purports to address. This reunion rang so empty and fake to me I found it insulting to the feelings I have as an adopted child, and to all the adoptive parents whose role it serves only to diminish, treating them as custodians not true parents.

Being such I really enjoyed the Empire of Death and the Payoff. I don’t understand all the negative stuff, perhaps people overhyped it in their heads. Which is why I may watch sensible videos like yours, but I always approach the show with no expectation and get taken for the rollercoaster ride of a lifetime. But that maybe just me.

      I agree completely. Theory crafting is fun, but you can never let yourself get too attached to those theories because then if it is anything else you are always disappointed. I honestly think part of a lot of people's problem come from the fact that they were right about Sutekh so they went in on a big high with massive expectations about their Ruby theories and it wasn't anything they had predicted so they are especially frustrated.
      I understand some of the criticisms. I think the mom dramatically pointing at the sign and being dressed in the crazy robes is dumb and Overkill, but other than that I thought the story was perfectly enjoyable. I had watched pyramids of Mars for the first time earlier this year and while not a long-time fan of Sutekc didn't think he was treated any more disrespectfully here than he was when he was defeated by the time difference of radio waves unlocking his prison back then.

    I don’t believe we have found her parents. When the doctor was with Susan triad in the finale he was talking about a perception filter being why Susan believed her backstory and then the next scene is ruby finding her parents. It’s a perception filter! To protect from the truth because in the moment, if sutekh found out the real truth he would have gone OTT.
    I’m still convinced the real truth is that ruby is a good child of the tardis.

As an adopted child (at birth on Dec 27 -- close but no cigar), I especially appreciated and teared up at the way Ruby's reunion with her mother was handled. To all of us adoptees, our birth parents are "gods" until we find them. When they turn out to be ordinary people that still care for us, there is no better ending!!!! The Finale WAS GREAT!

I watched the first 13 seasons of new Who starting in November and finally caught up by the release of Dot and Bubble. I loved most of the episodes and the buildup throughout the new season. Episode 7 was my favorite but I was also very fond of 73 Yards. I liked the rest quite a bit, Space Babies was the only one I was lukewarm on… then I watched the finale. I liked the beginning, but none of the plotlines led anywhere or were explained well. I wish I could be excited for it again

  • @bth511

    I think casual viewers enjoyed it more because they are happy to just let it be whatever it is, and don't over speculate because they don't care that much about it being a certain thing, whereas us Whovians tend to build up expectation too much and create bigger elaborate plot theories that are more intelligent than the show actually is these days. We should probably stop speculating and expecting, and just watch to be surprised / entertained. Sometimes delving into the archives to fish out the biggest and best theory can put the real story into a shadow of disappointment.

    Another thing that penny dropped after the last episode, I don't think Sutekh has to be the one who waits in Toymaker reference terms, I think that's maybe a bit of clever sleight of hand script-wise because Sutekh fits that description but so could other characters/entities thus it could be about someone/something else when The Toymaker mentioned it. Maybe also the same thing Maestro meant about the 'wrong' music (wrong to 'discordant' Maestro of course! Perspective!) hidden in Ruby.
    Why? Because The Toymaker saw it hiding and ran. Sutekh is in the same pantheon of discord so it might not be Sutekh that scared The Toymaker. So could it be to do with Ruby or whatever 'Mrs Flood' is and what they 'conceal'? Ruby has the hidden song, Mrs Flood is always hiding away like The Doctor hiding behind the faces of their regenerations.
    Of course the hidden in Ruby could just be the positive aspects of her humanity but there are these interesting places it could go where like Clara and River et al they are more extraordinary than we think.

    Calling it now the new companion will be called Brindle Dee. I really enjoyed the Empire of Death especially Mel. I had given too much thought about Ruby's Mum so was underwhelmed with the reveal. Won’t do that again. But I was ok with the ending. I’ve really enjoyed the variety this season and the creative ways they dealt with Ncuti's absence. Legend of Ruby Sunday is my favourite episode of the season but if treated as a two parter then 73 yards, Dot and Bubble and Boom go above as my favourite stories. Been a fan since the late sixties and been to many conventions. have met all the classic Doctors bar Hartnell. Not missed a first broadcast since 1974.

    THEORY: perhaps ruby's had mother had originally died and the trickster was the original person who left her for their boss (perhaps pointing to betray Sutekh to take over the pantheon), Sutekh, but now the doctor won - the trickster, now in charge, changed time by giving ruby's mum life, his gimmick, ensuring ruby and the doctor are separate because they are such a powerful duo as they killed a god.. making it easier for the weaker but more cunning trickster and it would leave ruby's mum a normal woman and why the doctors memory changed. could also explain why the point changed, originally it was the trickster giving the doctor a hint so Sutekh would loose and he can take over, then after bringing her back time changed to fit that it was now her mum, aka now the road.. This makes me feel better and would explain why it was left like this. AND it explains the cloak, but that was always the thing that made people think trickster.

    There is absolutely no way there is anything more to Rubys parents. Russell said in the video commentary that he wrote her story as a response to Rise of Skywalker, in that he liked the idea that Reys parents were just nobodys and hated the retcon in tros that made her palpatines granddaughter. If its now revealed in a later episode that rubys parents actually are soneone he would literally just br doing the thing he said he was trying to criticise

    • @bicokun

      Agreed. I think her importance is something like what The Doctor described in the finale. He said that Ruby’s belief that her mom was important gave that moment of her appearance power, and inspiring everyone else to believe that she was important, including Sutekh, importantly, gave that memory of her even more power. That all probably comes down to the salt at the end of the universe thing, which itself was an instance of a superstition being given power because it was believed in, which opened the door to more magical creatures to get into the universe, proper. Ruby’s personal power also comes from her intense belief, in that she can basically make a new spirit or god or something of that nature due to the new magical ways of the universe. She’s just a normal person with extraordinary faith.

    i had an idea that all series 2 baddies will be from the Horror genre , which is why mrs flood says the doctors future ends in absolute terror.(seeing as series 1 started with goblins and the boogeyman and some people think mrs flood is some kind of God of Stories) As next episode will be xmas special and we've seen an everest base camp i will be expecting a lot more snow and maybe an appearance by Krampus who is meant to be part of the pantheon of discord but strangely wasn't meantioned by name in harriet harbingers monologue , so maybe ruby might not be human after all.susan triad asked if ruby's band could play Gaudete , which along with carol of the bells and joy to the world could all feature in such a show. Maybe krampus goes completely awol and instead of just punishing kids on the naughty list starts a rampant killing spree and either ruby has to turn out to be some new jesus/spirit of xmas or NICOLA coglan turns out to be some SJW rainbow freindly version of St Nicholas and reigns him in and tidies up all the pieces leftover. i'm sure it will be better under moffat whatever happens ...bring on the abominable snowmen !!! lol

    Well, first and foremost, I would say that Mrs Flood needs to see a therapist!
    My new theory is that we will probably have more gods coming up next series!
    The filming photos of the episode where we see the new companion also shows Mrs Flood traveling in time... and more importantly a theatre spelling out a movie title: "HAR B INGER"...
    A god of stories (like Mrs Flood) could fit here... a movie is a story... It could also explained the alternative Britain Empire we've seen where the Doctor is living is his life as Mr Smith.
    What if the answer we are missing (like the snow) is in fact connected to series 2 and we will get that covered.
    Adding to the fact we have similarities coming up next series, Ruby's mystery with her family again, gods, Mrs Flood with a plan... what if this all leading to series 1 events but in the wrong order ...
    Thinking about it, it could make sense as I feel like RTD struggled a little bit, perhaps too ambitious with only 8 episodes! He also was forces to cut some scenes and dialogues! The fact that it was filmed back to back could be because series 1 and series 2 are one entire season cut in half .... the two combined would make a total of 16 episodes with 2 Christmas specials, this is close to the number of episodes RTD 1 series had!

    Consistency is a good thing with the viewing figures. I am excited for Series 15 of Doctor Who along with the Christmas Special. I'll keep using Disney+ and catch up on shows and films. The finale was good. The second part is weaker compare to the first part, but I am happy with the ending and Sutekh. I am a big fan of Doctor Who, but I am not bothered by the series itself. I basically left just as the Flux Season started and returned literally in the 60th Anniversary Specials. I just watch it for fun and for the sci-fi. I genuinely don't mind the mix-match of genres and themes. You gotta remember that there is people out there that will see this series as their first Doctor Who season they watched, and it feels good to have a refresher of the... canon.

    Dobson confirmed in Radio times interview series 2 we find out who Mrs Flood really is.
    the way she worded the interview "We are on series 2 at the moment" It suggests she's back for series 3. Add this into her comments at the end have they confirmed he's a 3 series Doctor? But also I think we just saw the biggest reset ever not even knowing about it.
    All the planets/Characters etc lost over the years can be brough back saying it must have been the effect of Taking God Dog for a Walk in the Vortex. RTD needed a get out of Jail card and he's made one. You know that's how the Master is coming back.
    The Neilson figures which show the Disney plus top 10 have not had Dr Who in them.
    Given how Disney are trying to stop the losses dont be shocked if we find out that deal is over after series 2. I still feel a deal with Netflix or Paramount would have worked better
    Finally a Dr Who/Star trek crossover actually on screen. You know us nerds would combust

    I would consider myself a fan (not an obsessive one, but also not a casual one either), and honestly, I thought the finale was quite nice. The biggest problem with it in my opinion was the "dramatic" in crease in stakes, which didn't really matter as much. However, it didn't feel as dramatic to me because I didn't really care about Sutekh to begin with: I missed on a lot of classic episodes, so the big reveal in the prior episode and the episode as a whole felt a bit underwhelming to me. The way they presented the resolution in the finale though felt satisfying. Especially this whole idea with Ruby and her mom being just regular people and how one random person turned out to be the most important one in spacetime. The dialogues, the presentation and the resolution in general felt heartwarming. If this is the case with many other fans, I would suspect this to be the reason: obsessive fans tend to... obsess a bit too much and this becomes the reason for disappointments.
