Queer as Folk creator Russell T Davies has opened up about Yasmin Finney’s future in the Doctor Who universe. On 25 November, fans were finally treated to the first special (The Star Beast) of the show’s highly anticipated 60th anniversary celebration – which took place across three one-hour episodes.
Following the events of Doctor Who season 13, which saw Jodie Whittaker as the 13th Doctor, the episode begins with the time lord’s usual reincarnation.
However, instead of having a new face, the extraterrestrial being takes on the same identity as his tenth iteration, which David Tennant iconically plays.
As he walks about the city in his somewhat new form, the time lord runs into his former companion, Donna Noble (played by the beloved Catherine Tate), who is now a wife and loving mother to her trans daughter, Rose (Finney).
