In the latest episode of Doctor Who, fans were left buzzing after a character's dance seemed to draw a surprising parallel with former UK Prime Minister Theresa May. The show, which aired on Saturday night, featured billionaire Susan 'Sue' Triad, played by Susan Twist, who made an appearance to announce the release of free software for the world. While her announcement seemed innocent enough, it took a sinister turn when it was revealed that Triad and her company, Triad Technology, were actually the villains behind the whole thing.
But despite the shocking twist, fans couldn't help but focus on something else entirely - Triad's awkward dance as she walked on stage. Some viewers were quick to point out that it looked eerily similar to May's infamous dance in 2018 at the Conservative Party annual conference. Taking to social media, fans shared their thoughts on the apparent reference, with one user tweeting, "#DoctorWho #DoctorWhoSpoilers I know a reference when I see it!"
Another fan added, "This was inspired by the Theresa May dance and you can not convince me otherwise #DoctorWho." Even those who didn't catch the reference at first couldn't deny the similarities, with one viewer asking, "Why did Susan do the Theresa May dance on stage? I enjoyed it, just unexpected and I can't make a connection #DoctorWho."
The speculation only grew when an audio description version of the episode confirmed the fan theory. In a clip posted by TV critic @scottygb, the moment Sue walks on stage is accompanied by a description that says, "Susan steps before the cameras, breaking into a mock Theresa May dance." This clip has since gone viral, with many fans feeling validated in their suspicions.
But the dance wasn't the only surprise in the episode. The plot took a shocking turn when Sutekh, the God of Death, made a return. Played by Ncuti Gatwa, the Fifteenth Doctor, and Millie Gibson, the mysterious companion Ruby Sunday, the show left viewers on the edge of their seats. One fan tweeted, "That was fantastic and that cliffhanger! I can't wait for next week it's going to be incredible!"
As a new viewer, @bella_snowden expressed their excitement and fear, writing, "As a new Doctor Who fan I am scared, shook, and excited! I don't know who the hell SUTEKH is but when I saw To Be Continued I burst into flames."
With one more episode to go, showrunner Russell T Davies has teased that this will be the "most devastating finale" yet. Speaking to SFX magazine, he revealed that there will be a running theme and story that will build up to the finale, which he promises will be the biggest one yet. "Every episode stands on its own," Davies said, "but there will be a running theme and running story that's going to build and build and build to 'The Most Devastating Finale.'"
Fans can catch the season finale, "Empire of Death," on Saturday, June 22 on BBC One. And for those who may have missed any episodes, the rest of the series is available to watch on BBC iPlayer. So mark your calendars and prepare for what is sure to be an unforgettable conclusion to this thrilling season of Doctor Who.
