Doctor Who Recap: What’s Schwup, Doc?


Can we blame Belinda for being prickly towards the Doctor after he brought her to the “planet of the incels”?

This time, he’s joined by nurse and reluctant new companion Belinda Chandra, played by Varada Sethu (whom we last saw fighting a holy war in “Boom” on a battlefield with AI ambulances). First, we flash back to see that as a video-game lover, Alan was excited to get power and make up “rules.” He’s not hesitant to commit violence, and his aggression doesn’t seem to discriminate by gender; the first person he orders to their death appears to be a man. My first instinct would’ve been to ask if we could go back to May 23 and just hide in the TARDIS for 24 hours, but I’m guessing that whatever problem this is requires a more complex solution because the Doctor and Belinda are in Miami, Florida in 1952 in the episode preview.
