'Doctor Who': 5 Best Uses Of Historical Events In NuWho
WARNING! SPOILERS for Doctor Who: Joy to the World. The latest Doctor Who Christmas special, 'Joy to the World', has aired to a mixed reception from fans and critics. Written by former showrunner Steven Moffat, a mid-story twist revealed that companion character Joy Almondo (played by Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan), spends her Christmases alone out of guilt over not being with her Mother when she died in Hospital on Christmas Day, 2020, having only been able to say goodbye via video call. While the disease is not mentioned by name, a combination of the year, and a brief mention of Boris Johnson's controversial Christmas party, heavily implies that Joy's Mother died during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Three episodes into Skeleton Crew, the mystery behind At Attin, the homeworld to which Wim, Neel, Fern, and KB are trying desperately to return, with the help of Jod Na Nawood, who it turns out is actually kind of dodgy. Various clues in the first three episodes, including Wim's 'lunch money' turning out to be Old Republic credits, he and Neel speaking of the Jedi in the present tense, and most recently, the kids' lack of knowledge of Alderaan's destruction, suggest that At Attin has been sheltered from the wider galaxy for a very long time.
