Interesting theory! I’m not sure that I agree but it’s something to mull over for sure…

The only connection with ‘Sleep No More’ that I can think of is that the machines in that episode send signals into the brains of humans. Also, Morpheus hijacks visual receptors.

So the old woman version of Ruby, with her hand signals and voice, may be sending signals into the brains of the people she speaks to, targeting the fear response, and/or hijacking their visual receptors to make them see something else when they look at Ruby and run away in fear.

Yes, I’d love a UNIT spin off so that we get to see more of Kate Stewart!

I hope that the Welsh Prime Minister reappears in the show – a great villain.

I didn’t notice about there being no opening titles. Very interesting! Something to mull over…

Ruby must be something ‘other worldly’.

This episode didn’t have any opening titles. I Googled this and it’s the first time since ‘Sleep No More’ (which I didn’t remember as an episode and had to look up). I can’t see there’s any connection between the stories though.

Well, no Prime Minister’s from Wales then 😉

I’m sure in the scene in the TV studio, Ruby’s glasses didn’t have lenses in them! I guess they wanted to see her eyes clearly but very odd.

I tried scanning the QR code on the table when she was talking to Kate but I think it was a fake ‘not quite right’ one that doesn’t work.

I now want a UNIT spin off…

Oh, and I still wish Ruby’s mum was the companion.
