Doctor Who Boss Confirms Mrs Flood in Every Episode, Teases Major Role

In the upcoming season of Doctor Who, the mysterious Mrs Flood will take on a more significant part, leading up to the unveiling of her real persona.

In the 2023 Christmas special “The Church on Ruby Road,” Anita Dobson’s character, Flood, was introduced as a neighbor to Millie Gibson’s character, Ruby Sunday. Initially, she seemed like an ordinary human, but as the story progressed, she displayed knowledge about the TARDIS and hinted at familiarity with the malevolent entity Sutekh in later episodes.

During the start of the latest season, showrunner Russell T Davies affirmed that the character would appear regularly, almost weekly, leading up to the finale disclosure – likening her frequent appearances to the recurring role portrayed in the previous season by Susan Twist.

Each week last year, Susan Triad appeared, yet she remained unaware of her own identity,” Davies stated.

As a movie connoisseur, I must say this character is the polar opposite – she possesses an undeniable self-awareness that shines through. Towards the finale of the last season, she made a striking appearance on a snowy rooftop, parasol in hand, donning a white fur coat, and declaring ominously, “I’m about to unleash sheer terror!” Needless to say, it seems her intentions are now clear as day.

Davis mentioned that Dobson’s character, Flood, will have a lot more responsibilities in the upcoming episodes. He hinted, “As you watch, you’ll notice this unfolding.

Additionally gracing our screens for the upcoming season are actors like Freddie Fox, Christopher Chung, Rose Ayling-Ellis, along with familiar characters from UNIT, namely Jemma Redgrave and Bonnie Langford, who will be rejoining us once more.

As a dedicated film enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that this upcoming season boasts an impressive lineup of eight captivating episodes. The genius mind behind the script is none other than Davies, but he won’t be alone in his creative journey. He’ll be joined by a talented team of contributors, including Pete McTighe, Juno Dawson, Inua Ellams, and Sharma Angel-Walfall. Together, they promise to weave a magical story that will keep us hooked!

Davis continues to express his anticipation for a decision regarding the show’s continuation following the upcoming season, and he expresses his hope that it will return.

He assured everyone that no final decision has been made after season 2. It’s amusing because even those who work on the show speculate about secret discussions. My coworkers I see every year ask me, “What’s really going on?”, and I reply, “Nothing! No meetings, nothing.”

To initiate production on additional episodes, Disney+ must first approve them since they have collaborated with the BBC in producing the last two seasons of the show.

Starting this coming Saturday, April 12th, Doctor Who will air on BBC One at 6:50 PM. In the United Kingdom, fresh episodes will become accessible from 8 AM every Saturday on BBC iPlayer. For viewers residing outside of the UK, the series can be found on Disney+.
