Who Is Ruby's Mother?
The Doctor Who Christmas Special Left This Question Unanswered - Asked As A Villanelle
We watched the 2023 Doctor Who Christmas Special and if you have access to the BBC iPlayer you can watch it here. It is an excellent watch.
The episode is "The Church On Ruby Road" and introduced us to Ncuti Gatwa as the Fifteenth Doctor, alongside Millie Gibson as Ruby Sunday.
To make sense of this it is ideal that you watch the episode on the BBC or Disney+

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of usβ¦ my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the dayβs oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along β apace with a sloth β has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.

As a precious gem....
Marvelous!!!β€οΈβ€οΈπ
I havenβt actually watched Doctor Who, but I liked that you were inspired by the show! βΊοΈπ
Fabulous writing Mike!
Intriguing, yes. I think it has to be a time travel situationβ¦or she is related to a previously introduced character? Itβs fun to speculate π§
I am really excited for this new "era" of doctor who. I really like the new doctor! I hope it meets our great expectations. Great poem!
Wow! This is great!
I love the recurring lyrics you included: "In the snow, she left her baby."
Nicely done, Mike! Loved the episode...and yeah...that will be a big question I feel will be answered when the series gets underway. I have a few working theories...but...yeah!
So Ruby's mom abandoned her and we don't know who she is. I know who she is. She's someone who probably should have had an abortion, been on the pill or kept her legs closed. Lol sorry, that's just me being me π€£π€£π€£π€£ I don't have BBC or Disney+ so I don't have any context. Loved your Villanelle!
