Read more about Fugitive Doctor at: Wikipedia Official Site: BBC The Fugitive Doctor is an incarnation of the Doctor, the protagonist of the BBC science fiction television programme Doctor Who. She is portrayed by the English actor Jo Martin, the first person of colour to play the role. It is unknown where this incarnation falls within the show's fictional chronology. Within the programme's narrative, the Doctor is a centuries-old alien, from the planet Gallifrey. They travel in time and space in their time capsule, the TARDIS. Due to their alien physiology, the Doctor, when critically injured, can regenerate their body, gaining a new physical appearance and personality. This plot device has allowed a number of actors, both male and female, to portray the Doctor through the decades. The Fugitive Doctor is a more ruthless incarnation implied to be from the Doctor's past, retroactively added to the show by head writer Chris Chibnall. She is first encountered on Earth, where she had hidden herself from the Time Lord, for whom she had been compelled to work in an unspecified capacity. The Fugitive Doctor first appears in "Fugitive of the Judoon", disguised as human tour guide Ruth Clayton by means of a Chameleon Arch. As Ruth, she lives alongside her "husband" Lee in 21st century Gloucester with no knowledge of her true nature. The Judoon locate her and invade the city, intending to present her to Time Lord Commander Gat. At the same time, the Thirteenth Doctor finds a police box buried in the grounds – Ruth's TARDIS. As they reveal their identities to one another it transpires that neither Doctor recognises the other, something which ought to be impossible. After tricking Gat into accidentally killing herself with a malfunctioning gun, the Fugitive Doctor parts with her other self acrimoniously.
Fugitive Doctor has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
