Doctor Who: EVERY NuWho Villain And Monster Ranked Worst To Best

95. Dream Lord

Appears in: Amy’s Choice.

Arnim Zola from the MCU, Culverton Smith in Sherlock - Toby Jones has played some memorably malevolent characters. So you'd think that playing a part that imbues the Doctor's darker personality traits would be right up there with those other star turns.

Alas, the Dream Lord is more smarmy than sinister, a presence that plays divide and conquer by teasing and taunting the Doctor, Amy and Rory. A presence that's neither here nor there really. But if the Valeyard were to return on screen, then Jones should be given the role which would allow him to flesh out a proper Dark Doctor.
