Doctor Who

Summary
Susan Twist ’s " Dot and Bubble " cameo finally shed some illumination on her place in theDoctor Whouniverse , make it incredibly unlikely that two theories about the actress ' true character are rightful . As a consistent member of theDoctor Whoseason 14 cast , Twist has been popping up throughout the Disney era , with very little to connect her various characters beyond them being limn by the same person . However,“Dot and house of cards " helps narrow down the mysteryby including Susan Twist in a role that softly answer a few questions .
Twist ’s character have become progressively more prominent asDoctor Who ’s Disney erahas advance , with her first appearance descend in " Wild Blue Yonder " as Isaac Newton ’s maid , Mrs. Merridrew . Interestingly , Doctor Whoseason 14 , installment 5 , " Dot and house of cards , " is the first clip the Doctor greet a Twist theatrical role , identifying her as the face of the ambulance from Kastarion 3 in " gold rush . " However , while this is a compelling instant , it ’s the implications of Susan Twist ’s " Dot and Bubble " fibre that provides the most contextfor her true identity .
Doctor Who has been a secureness on telly screens for 60 years , intend there are plenty of story to choose from when picking out the Time Lord ’s best .
Susan Twist Can’t Be Portraying The Master In Doctor Who
The Doctor’s Time Lord nemesis wouldn’t commit to playing someone’s mother for so long
The Master has been in the midsection of more than one recentDoctor Whotheory , with some hypothesizing that Mrs. Flood is in secret the Master . This same theory has extended to Twist ’s characters , with many believing that she is just another positive feedback of the Doctor ’s nemesis . Last trifle by Sacha Dhawan , the Master is uncover to be trapped in the Toymaker ’s gold tooth in " The Giggle . “While this tooth is render to be picked up by an unknown script following the Toymaker ’s defeat , " Dot and house of cards " all but put an remainder to the possibility of Susan Twist play the Master .
Twist plays Penny Pepper - Bean in " Dot and Bubble,“mother of Callie Cooke ’s Lindy Pepper - Bean . This means thatthe Master would have had to conceive a child on Finetime ’s homeworld , then wait around for years in the Leslie Townes Hope that the Doctor would someday arrive . The Master is far cleverer than this and would be incredibly unlikely to formulate such a half - baked plan - let alone carry it out with such commitment .
There ’s also the fact that Penny is make bold dead , along with every other inhabitant of the Homeworld , andDoctor Whoisn’t likely to for good kill off the character in such underwhelming circumstance .
The data point on Penny ’s social media profile states she is 62 geezerhood sure-enough , and while this could be falsified , her being the Master in disguise would also suggest she ’s been on the Homeworld for over six decades living a relatively normal life liken with that of a nefarious Time Lord . Such levels of solitaire with no guaranteed payoff just is n’t in the Master ’s character . In summation , there ’s also the fact that Penny is presumed dead , along with every other inhabitant of the Homeworld , andDoctor Whoisn’t potential to permanently vote down off the character in such underwhelming circumstance .
Susan Twist Also Can’t Be Portraying The Doctor’s Granddaughter, Susan
Susan Foreman was originally portrayed by Carole Ann Ford
Another popular equipment possibility making its way through theDoctor Whofandom is that the actress is playing Susan Foreman , somehow traveling through time and place to keep a alert center on her grandfather before reaching out to reunite with him . However , Penny Pepper - Bean ’s end essentially debunks this possibility too . InDoctor Whoseason 14 , instalment 2 , " The Devil ’s Chord,“the Doctor tells Ruby he believes Susan to be all in . So , for it to turn out that Susan has been live all this time only to die in an off - screen massacre would be incredibly awless to the Doctor ’s granddaughter .

There ’s also the Doctor ’s bloodline to see . If Penny is indeed bring the Doctor ’s granddaughter , then that would imply the Doctor is Lindy ’s groovy - grandfather . Such a Apocalypse would postulate to be framed in a much more satisfying manner than during a random , unnoticed encounter on the surface of a removed synodic month . In addition , the ending of " Dot and Bubble " reveals Lindy ’s racism , and the doc ’s blood relative discriminate against him for the color of his skin would arguably be a petty too low-spirited for a family show likeDoctor Who .
Susan Foreman was the Doctor ’s first fellow traveler inDoctor Who .
Susan Twist Can’t Be Playing A Regular Time Traveler
Twist’s ongoing presence suggests there’s something more going on than just time travel
It ’s obvious thatwhoever Susan Twist is really play is orchestrating her political campaign - ins with the Doctor- or , as suggest by her presence in " 73 Yards , " with Ruby Sunday specifically . select to appear at various points in fourth dimension and space is n’t a common skill inDoctor Who , with the Doctor ’s TARDIS serving as one of the few methods of accomplish the feat . If Twist ’s true fibre has a TARDIS or something similar , then there would be no want for her to appease on the Homeworld so long to force another showdown .
There ’s also the consideration that she has even played an inorganic use , serving as the brass and voice of the Villengard ambulance AI inDoctor Whoseason 14 , instalment 3 , " Boom . "
There ’s no denying thatSusan Twist is playing someone with an ability to traverse the universethat at least matches that of the Doctor , but the odds of them being a " normal " time traveler are scurvy than they ever were due to the cosmos of Penny Pepper - Bean and her implied tenner - long lifespan on the Homeworld in " Dot and Bubble . " There ’s also the consideration that she has even played an inorganic role , serving as the face and spokesperson of the Villengard ambulance AI inDoctor Whoseason 14 , sequence 3 , " Boom . "
Susan Twist Playing A Member Of Doctor Who’s Pantheon Is Now Way More Likely
The power of Twist’s character could match that of Maestro or the Toymaker
There are doubt about Susan Twist ’s ubiquitousness inDoctor Whoseason 14 that ca n’t be answered by her being a mortal character . Every metre she appears , Susan Twist appear to be someone who has bent the rules of realityto account for her presence . For instance , it ’s probably not true that Penny Pepper - Bean is actually Lindy ’s biological mother . What ’s more likely is that she has taken the place of the original centime and made it so no one notice or remembers - if there was ever a " real " Penny at all .
Thankfully , the show already introduced a group of characters with ability that can explicate this accomplishment - the Pantheon . Doctor Who ’s Pantheon of Godsconsists of immortal being who have proven time and again that they can do almost anything . For case , the Doctor scarcely stopsJinkx Monsoon ’s Maestrofrom hijacking the TARDIS in " The Devil ’s Chord . " Similarly , the Toymaker has been establish as a divine physique whose power surpass almost every previous villain . So , Susan Twist ’s reference could belong to the Pantheon inDoctor Who- or more specifically , she ’s a extremity of the group who can manipulate blank space and time .
