Ruby Snow Cam (2024)

FAQs

Why does it keep snowing around Ruby? ›

And since Sutekh got invested in building lore-theories around Ruby, then each time, when Ruby and the Doctor remembered Ruby's birth, he came out of the TARDIS to look very closely at them, manifesting himself in the form of snow.

Throughout the first season of this new era of Doctor Who, Ruby Sunday was seen making it snow. While the power was one Ruby did not fully understand and could not control, she summoned the snowfall from the night she was abandoned every time she thought back to that night.

(TV: The Legend of Ruby Sunday ^[+]Russell T Davies, Doctor Who series 14 (BBC One and Disney+, 2024).) According to Maestro, her ability to summon the snow came from a hidden song within her heart, and prevented the entity from absorbing her musical spirit.

Summary. Ruby Sunday's falling snow flashbacks in Doctor Who season 14 may be linked to her TARDIS adventures and unique lineage. The TARDIS has had strange effects on companions before, like Amy Pond's baby developing regeneration abilities.

Doctor Who finale sees Millie Gibson's Ruby depart the TARDIS in emotional scenes. Thankfully, Ruby's not gone for good. Millie Gibson's Ruby Sunday has officially left the TARDIS in moving scenes at the end of Doctor Who's two-part finale, Empire of Death.

Main actor:

Louise Alison Miller is the biological mother of Ruby Sunday. Louise abandoned her new-born on the doorstep of the church at Ruby Road on Christmas Eve 2004.

Summary. Ruby Sunday chose to leave the Doctor at the end of season 14 to reunite with her birth mother on Earth, setting up a return in season 15. Ruby's departure clears the path for Varada Sethu's character to become the Doctor's new companion, potentially causing tension in their relationship.

This current episode adds more questions than answers to Ruby's story. The snowflakes return, and she cries only to pause in mid-air when she dies. The AI ambulance dates her age as over 3000 years old. However, that conflicts with the previous TARDIS view, as her age is 19.

"Perception means that she fitted in," explains the Doctor. "She had character, she had history, she had truth." And, because Doctor is such a frequent visitor to Earth, the idea of this woman has grown to the extent that, by 2024, she's become a world-famous tech billionaire.

But, actually, Ruby's mother is an ordinary - but very important - woman named Louise Alison Miller, played by Faye McKeever, who fans might recognise as Linda in Sky sitcom Trollied, Marie in the BBC Three series Massive, or Claire Olssen in ITV drama Little Boy Blue.

Is Ruby Sunday River's daughter? ›

Ruby's mother is… Louise Miller. Not River Song, Mrs. Flood, Susan, or anyone else that's been theorized over the past few weeks.

Ruby was “originally supposed to have a neutral, London accent, which is no hint of an accent”, Gibson says. During the audition, she slipped in and out of Mancunian intonation. “When I got the script, it was like 'Ruby's from Manchester', and I was like 'phew'.

It is meant to be a mystery." He also revealed how he thought up the idea of the snow, adding to the outlet: "I can actually remember the moment I thought of it. I wanted the memories of Ruby's birth to keep breaking through as a child. She's abandoned as a foundling on a church doorstep in the snow at midnight."

After failing to escape the Extraction Squad, the Doctor was transformed into a Weeping Angel in order to be transported outside of the universe, to Division.

Ruby's ability to see the apparition may be because traveling in the TARDIS has changed her abilities, but it's more likely that she is a Time Lord... Ruby was able to see the apparition despite the perception filter, which suggests that she has some relation to the Time Lords.

The Doctor states the reason why it keeps snowing around Ruby is because the night she was left by her mother is a very raw and open memory. He concludes because of this he shouldn't even bring a time machine to that event.

Ruby is identified as hom*o sapiens in a DNA scan by the TARDIS at the end of "Space Babies," so bang goes any fan theories that suggest she is a Time Lord like the Doctor, or has Time Lord DNA. But that doesn't mean we're without threads to pull on.

Maestro is horrified upon what they're hearing and tells The Doctor that Ruby is "wrong". The Doctor pries Maestro for more information while the latter ignores him, mumbling to themself about Ruby's birth and an unknown figure needing to have been present for what they saw to be possible.
