Doctor Who’s upcoming episode on Disney Plus, titled ‘73 Yards’, is being hailed as the best and scariest entry in years. The episode is part of Doctor Who’s season 14, which has been praised as a return to form for the legendary sci-fi series.
The fourth episode of Doctor Who’s debut season on Disney Plus, ‘73 Yards’, is a Ruby Sunday-centric episode. It is being lauded as an instant classic, drawing comparisons to the 2007 ‘Blink’ episode, one of the best Doctor Who episodes since its revival in 2005. Despite the Doctor being largely absent for much of its runtime, ‘73 Yards’ is described as a suspense-filled and spooky entry that deserves a spot in the pantheon of Nu-Who episodes.
The plot of ‘73 Yards’ sees The Doctor and companion Ruby embark on the strangest journey of their lives. In a rain-lashed pub, the locals sit in fear of ancient legends coming to life. The episode is expected to terrify audiences in the same vein as ‘Blink’, ‘The Empty Child’, and ‘Midnight’ previously did.
The episode ‘73 Yards’ is set to release on May 25 on Disney Plus and BBC One. Critics who have already seen it have praised it as an unsettling horror story that will stay with you long after the iconic credits music kicks in. The episode is also expected to give Millie Gibson’s Ruby her Donna Noble ‘Turn Left’ moment, with breathing room from Ncuti Gatwa’s often scene-stealing charisma, so she can try to save the day herself.
