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

162. Lord Sutcliffe

Doctor Who villains
BBC Studios

Appears in: Thin Ice.

A leading Victorian industrialist whose entire ancestral fortune was literally built on a pile of s**t. This lucrative waste, which burned a thousand times longer than coal, was produced by a massive monster that was chained in the River Thames by Sutcliffe and his forebears.

Sutcliffe's egregious attitude extended to his own kind: he thought of the local Londoners, including children, as mere fish food for the captive creature, and planned on blowing up the ice at the 1814 Frost Fair to provide the monster with a feast of people to eat. He was also a racist - we'd all like to take a swing at this nasty imperialist like the Doctor satisfyingly did.

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