Doctor Who boss teases Anita Dobson character mystery
Doctor Who showrunner Russell T Davies has confirmed that more will be revealed about Anita Dobson's mysterious character, Mrs Flood.
Monday's festive special 'The Church on Ruby Road' marked the first solo adventure for Ncuti Gatwa's Fifteenth Doctor and Millie Gibson's companion, Ruby Sunday.
The episode concluded with a mid-credits scene in which Ruby's nosy neighbour, Mrs Flood, sees the TARDIS disperse.
Unfazed, Mrs Flood tells her shocked neighbour Abdul to stop making "such a fuss," before she turns to the camera, winks and asks us: "Never seen a TARDIS before?"
Speaking about the fourth wall-breaking moment on Doctor Who: Unleashed, Davies teased: "Mrs Flood is a mysterious character. You will eventually find out more about her. She’s a slow burn, Mrs Flood. Who is Mrs Flood? Come back and find out!"
"Today what you see is a friendly neighbour," Dobson added. "What the future may be, no one knows. Russell is writing it as we speak."
Doctor Who returns in May 2024. The show airs on BBC One in the UK and Disney+ elsewhere.
Classic episodes of Doctor Who are now made available via BBC iPlayer in the UK as well.
