Plot
In progress
In 1813 Bath two men are arguing, Lord Galpin is demanding that Lord Barton take accountability for ruining the reputation of his sister. Barton resolutely refuses, taunts Galpin and insists that the latter duel him if he wishes satisfaction. Galpin reflects and decides that Barton’s life is far, far more fun than his, gambling, affairs, insulting others. Galbin grabs Barton, electricity flashes, and a burnt husk of Barton’s body falls to the ground, another copy of Barton standing atop it.
The Doctor and Ruby Sunday dance in a ballroom, Ruby marveling at how she’s keeping up when she doesn’t know the steps. The Doctor tells her the earrings she’s been given are psychic - they beam the information directly to her, and she can adjust the dance, so long as she stays off of battle mode. Their hostess, the Duchess of Pemberton, walks over to them and the trio become acquainted. Ruby notices some interference in her earrings, some feedback, and the Doctor endeavors to determine the source as the Duchess pulls Ruby away to find a suitable suitor.
Lord Barton approaches Ruby, and she finds him to be quite off-putting and rude, walking away. Barton latches on soon after to Emily Beckett, and Ruby, sensing drama, follows them into the library. Using his sonic screwdriver the Doctor narrows the frequencies to be coming from a strange man standing on a balcony, watching the party from above.

Notes
- Since the Doctor Who crew, as of 2022, with the 60th Anniversary Specials, began filming content far in advance, the fanbase would become aware of bits of information about episodes before their announcement, with this episode becoming known among fans as "Regency" as a result of a comment from Ncuti Gatwa. This eventually led to Russell T Davies himself calling it that in DWM 598.[2]
- The episode's official title was first revealed on the official Doctor Who Twitter account on 31 March 2024.[1]
- In his column for DWM 602, Davies said that Rogue had less FX than other episodes in the season, and that he and his team had recently watched and enjoyed the episode's final cut, describing it as having "one of the best monsters ever". He also revealed a line of dialogue from the episode: "Live vivisection!"[6]
- Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson considered it their favourite episode of the season.[7]
- This episode is the first with multiple credited writers since the show's return in 2005 in which neither writer is the current showrunner. It is also the first since The Haunting of Villa Diodati in which neither credited writer had previously written for the series.
