The latest Doctor Who episode — “Rogue” — is not explicitly about the complicated Time Lord regeneration canon that has been part of the series since 1966. It is, instead, a romantic romp set in the Regency era, in which the Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) and Ruby (Millie Gibson) have to defeat some shapeshifting aliens with the aid of a bounty hunter named Rogue (Jonathan Groff). The episode also gives the Doctor a new love interest in the form of the titular Rogue and further makes us wonder about all those Susan Twist cameos.
