The season finale of Doctor Who wrapped up the story of Ruby Sunday, a vital source of power in the battle against the god of death, Sutekh. The Doctor and Ruby joined forces to stop Sutekh’s plans to unleash an apocalypse across time and space, and in the process, uncovered the secrets of Sutekh’s past and the origins of the Susan Triads. Ruby’s memories played a crucial role in the quest, as she used them to manifest a smaller TARDIS and evade Sutekh’s devastating death wave.
As they journeyed through time, Ruby’s memories led them to a pivotal discovery: Louisa Allison Miller, a 15-year-old girl who became pregnant and left her child on Ruby Road. Ruby used her DNA to find her mother’s identity in an alternate future, but Sutekh’s sinister plans forced her to reveal her mother’s name to stop him. In a dramatic turn, Mel, one of the Doctor’s former companions, was possessed by Sutekh, and Ruby was left with no choice but to reveal her mother’s name to save her.
