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

166. The Ice Governess

Doctor Who villains
BBC Studios

Appears in: The Snowmen.

There are essential ingredients in creating an effective villain or monster. Here, the Great Intelligence has the perfect recipe for creating an unmeltable army of ice to take over the world.

It combines telepathic snow with a young girl's nightmares about her deceased former governess resurfacing from the frozen family pond from whence she drowned, therefore animating the Ice Governess with a snarling menace.

Fortunately for humanity, she ends up smashed to smithereens and safely stored in the TARDIS, but not before taking the poor unsuspecting Clara literally - and fatally - down with her. She's as cold as ice that one.
