The Fifteenth Doctor #03

'Ruby Red' (2024) from BBC New Series Adventures.

A quick little adventure that gives you a bit more quality time spent with Fifteen and Ruby. Lots of fun uses of things such as perception filter clothing and The Doctor's "contact" ability, which works a lot better here than it did with Thirteen, although I suppose you could argue it's been around in some way since Ten (and maybe in Classic Who, I haven't seen it all). A nice set of characters are introduced to follow for its length, and the sister dynamic is plenty fun. I like the villain, the way there are both the parasites and the Genetrix is a cool way to build up to something greater, and the setting is fun in a way that reminded me of episodes like The Eaters of Light and The Girl Who Died. I feel like it wraps up a little too quickly, but aside from that it's just a generally good time, and while it's nothing mind-blowing, it's a nice story to add to the somewhat lacking selection from Season 1.
