Time travel has its perks, but what happens when you’re back on Earth, grounded, and the Doctor is nowhere to be found? Ruby Sunday is about to find out the hard way. “Doctor Who” returns this Saturday with “Lucky Day,” and it looks anything but lucky for Ruby and her boyfriend, Conrad.
Life back on Earth without the Doctor takes center stage in this upcoming episode. While the Doctor and Ruby typically zip through time and space, battling alien baddies and righting historical wrongs, this week finds Ruby facing a more terrestrial threat, and she’s going it alone. A new danger emerges, one that puts Conrad directly in harm’s way.
Separated from the Doctor, Ruby must team up with UNIT, the stalwart military organization tasked with defending Earth from extraterrestrial threats. Can she and UNIT save Conrad from the terrifying Shreek?
Find out when “Doctor Who: Lucky Day” airs this Saturday, May 3rd, at 7:10 PM on BBC One.
