#gawd knows how RTD'll insert his fave next

There are a lot of theories who Ruby's parents are. Some are more intriguing than others. But if her parents are a certain couple from another universe (an annoying theory that pops up again and again) I will let out the heaviest sigh ever. 😩

Hello kind Anon

To be honest, I've been avoiding the theories - they tend to get it completely wrong, for a start - because I don't want the big reveal to be spoiled.

Yes, I saw the baby across the universes theory, and don't believe it I really really don't want to!). As a mother, there aren't many times I'd be willing to abandon my child in the snow like that; it'd have to be bad or ultra desperate. Plus, the DW comics have "a certain couple" havigna daughter called Mia who definitely makes it passed babayhood to stay with her parents; and RTD loves sticking to stories in the comics, so I can't see that theory being true.

If the child had been snatched, then what was the point? Apart from the misplacing of a child from its parents, obviously. Which leads nice to one of the Tricksters brigade being involved.

The Master once turned up on a beach as a baby (stated during Utopia, via Prof Yana) so perhaps Ruby turns out to be a retconned Master? 😄

You just never know with DW, and I'm happy to keep it that way.
