Go Behind the Scenes of “The Legend of Ruby Sunday” with New “Doctor Who” Featurette

A new behind the scenes video delving into the creation of the penultimate episode of this season of Doctor Who, “The Legend of Ruby Sunday,” has been released.

What’s Happening:

  • From that TARDIS landing to Susan Triad's reveal, go behind the scenes of “The Legend of Ruby Sunday” in this brand-new featurette.
  • The featurette begins by showcasing the Doctor’s return to UNIT, which sees the return of a number of characters, such as Kate Stewart (Jemma Redgrave), Melanie Bush (Bonnie Langford) and Rose Noble (Yasmin Finney) – as well as the introduction of UNIT’s new scientific advisor, 13 year old genius Morris Gibbons (Lenny Rush).
  • We see the rather low tech, yet clever way that the filming of the TARDIS’ arrival at UNIT took place.
  • The creation of the time window is showcased, which surprisingly used a CGI created environment that was projected into the set and then filmed with the actors.
  • After his first appearance in “The Giggle,” the robotic Vlinx returns in this episode, with quite a shiny upgrade! We see how the character is brought to life.
  • Finally, we see some of the prosthetics worn by the mysterious Susan Triad (Susan Twist) in the episode.
  • Watch the full behind the scenes featurette for yourself below.

  • “The Legend of Ruby Sunday” is now streaming on Disney+, and you can check out Luke’s spoiler-filled recap and review here.
