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

77. Minotaur

Doctor Who villains
BBC

Appears in: The God Complex.

The Minotaur - along with the Krafayis from Vincent and the Doctor and the Gunslinger from A Town Called Mercy - is one of the characters with the most tragic story. The creature was imprisoned on an automated spaceship which took people with strong beliefs and converted their faith into food for the Minotaur. It's Doctor Who, so it makes complete sense.

However the Minotaur wanted it all to stop, but wasn't able to as its instincts to feed were too strong. Eventually, the Doctor was able to cut off the "food supply" by displacing Amy's faith in him, allowing the Minotaur to die in peace.

As we mentioned before at No 115 with the Prison Ship, it makes you wonder what immoral bunch would build a ship that drifts around the cosmos essentially murdering people and aliens.

The name's Colbourn, James - yeah, doesn't quite have the same ring to it.
