The Black Archive #22: Hell Bent
The Black Archive – a series of book-length looks at single Doctor Who stories from 1963 to the present day.
In the third of our triptych looking at the 2015 season finale, Alyssa Franke examines Hell Bent, an intensely feminist story which challenges the primacy of the Doctor’s character arc, and his masculine tendency to impose his own forms of closure on the women he travels with.
