10 Longest Pay-Offs In Doctor Who History

Some say that Yaz's love for the Thirteenth Doctor has come from nowhere and has been shoehorned in too little too late. However, lots of fans spotted it way back in the early days of her run in season eleven. It began with Yaz's reaction when her mum asked if her and the Doctor were together.

Throughout their adventures, the way Yaz looked at the Doctor said everything. It becomes very obvious when you add in moments like in Can You Hear Me, where Yaz ran away from home after suffering from a mental health breakdown and, her ability to call out the Doctor when she needs to. Her behaviour when the Doctor returns in Revolution of the Daleks where she gets mad and pushes her always felt extreme for just a friend, and the way she keeps replaying and reacting to the hologram in Flux is rooted in a deeper love.

These are just a handful of examples, but guaranteed on a rewatch it'll be very obvious that Yaz was always in love. It's a shame it took until Eve of the Daleks, almost four years after her debut, for her to admit it but it's nice to see LGBTQ+ representation being handled sensitively and sweetly. It was even more exciting, but equally heartbreaking, to see the Doctor handle the situation the way she did too.
