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

204. 79B Aickman Road

Appears in: The Lodger, Day of the Moon.

This is almost a carbon copy of the Clockwork Droids trying to repair the SS Madame de Pompadour. Here, the abandoned spaceship from Series 6's Day of the Moon is disguised as a first floor flat (79B Aickman Road) above Craig Owens' home at 79A.

The ship's emergency crash programme - in the guise of various holographic people - lures unsuspecting passers-by into the flat/ship with cries of help. It then uses them to try to relaunch the ship, only for them to gruesomely burn out as they're not strong enough to pilot it.

But, as the Beatles say, love is all you need, something that Craig and Sophie finally confess to each other, which amazingly makes the ship implode. Love, eh? Quite the powerful deus ex machina.

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