It’s about time (lord)! After 60 years of being on the air, Doctor Who has finally featured its first ever same-sex kiss between the Doctor (currently played by Ncuti Gatwa) and a bounty hunter named Rogue (Jonathan Groff) in an episode set in the British Regency period. Leave it to the always-wet Jonathan Groff to break a 60-year dry spell. Despite initially suspicious of one another, the two characters soon team up to fight the shape-shifting Chuldurs — just how all great gay romances begin — and ultimately share a kiss by the episode’s end. Over the course of the series’s over 60 year run, 14 actors have taken on the role of the shape-shifting Doctor, but Gatwa is the first to identify as queer, and the first Black actor to play the role for a full season.
