The latest instalment of Doctor Who introduces Jonathan Groff’s character Rogue, and fans watching the Bridgerton-themed episode have reacted emotionally online to his fate
The sixth episode of the new series of Doctor Who has left fans devastated following a heartbreaking twist in the story of Ncuti Gatwa ’s Fifteenth Doctor.
The stranger, played by former Glee star Jonathan Groff, reveals his name is Rogue, and eventually the Doctor learns he is a bounty hunter sent to Earth to track down an alien called a Chuldur, who kills people and then shape-shifts into an exact replica of them, just for fun. Throughout the episode, there is a fizz of electricity between the Doctor and Rogue, and when Ruby is accidentally trapped in the transportation device with the Chuldur, Rogue tells the Doctor he has to decide whether to save his friend or save the planet. The Doctor wants to save his friend, but Rogue distracts him with a heartfelt kiss while stealing the trigger for the device.
Fans who have watched the episode have rushed to social media to comment on the heartbreaking twist that has the Doctor’s potential love interest banished to somewhere deep in the universe.
