Doctor Who
The time of year premiere ofDoctor Who’slatest outing saw the instauration of Varada Sethu ’s raw companion , Belinda Chandra , who is unwillingly taken to a planet name after her and crowned the ruler of a tyrannical robot army . " The Robot Revolution " is one of the show ’s most entertaining episodes in a while , and Sethu immediately proved herself to be an priceless addition toDoctor Who ’s mould . The episode also boast peck of unexampled location , machines , and time - locomotion conception that prove the show still has unexampled ideas to keep it move forward .
One of these new machines is a little robot void that immediately appropriate fans ' care asDoctor Who ’s cut new character . While it ’s unlikely to look again in the show ’s upcoming episodes , this fiddling machine left a bragging effect and was intemperately involved in"The Robot Revolution " ’s explosive ending . But whilethe character is sure enough an original one that ’s never been explored inDoctor Whobefore , it ’s spookily standardised to another case from a dear Pixar movie .
The Cleaning Robot In Doctor Who’s “The Robot Revolution” Is Weirdly Similar To WALL-E’s M-O
The Two Cute Robots Have Similar Appearances & Purposes
The cleansing automaton from " The Robot Revolution " and M - O from Pixar’sWALL - Eshare many traits . Not only are they both little machines designed to clean floor and provide companionship to humans , but they both play pivotal roles in the culmination of their several stories . M - O rescues Eve and WALL - E when his cleaning road accidentally close up the air lock , whileDoctor Who ’s automaton surrender the star certificate to Belinda , who uses it to create a paradox and destroy Alan .
Ncuti Gatwa ’s first season as the Fifteenth Doctor sidelined him in two separate episode , and Doctor Who season 15 proves that is n’t over yet .
There are for certain differences in the pattern of these two characters , but they ’re similar enough to sustain suspicion that Russell T. Davies ' political machine may be a subtle reference to the Pixar motion picture . Doctor Whois always referencing other sci - fi projects , whether directly or indirectly , and it ’s surprising that a movie as democratic asWALL - Ehasn’t already been pay homage to in the BBC show .
Doctor Who’s Missbelindachandrabots Also Felt Eerily Familiar
The Story Could Have Easily Been A Cyberman Adventure
Interestingly , it was n’t just the cleanup automaton that felt familiar inDoctor Who ’s latest installment . “The Robot Revolution " could easily have been a Cybermen adventure , as the mechanical USA bore countless law of similarity to this iconicDoctor Whovillain . With all the public lecture of merging , upgrading , and controlling world , the Missbelindachandrabots are fundamentally Cybermen in all but name . Even the design of Alan ’s cyborg manikin is very resonant of otherDoctor Whocharacters who have been merged with Cyber - tech in the past times , such as Bill Potts or Danny Pink .
