SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Doctor Who season 14, episode 7, "The Legend of Ruby Sunday," finally brought with it the long-awaited reveal of The One Who Waits' true identity, and he's a villain the Doctor has faced before. Tom Baker's Fourth Doctor has a direct connection to the first big bad of Doctor Who's Disney era, with the antagonist also being tied into a tangled web of other franchise antagonists - both old and new.
Sutekh's true identity being hidden was a huge clue regarding who he really was, but it was still tricky to zero in on the villain's name. A mysterious title like "The One Who Waits" is only really effective if it's being used as a moniker rather than an actual name. So, the figure was almost certainly going to be a familiar figure from Doctor Who's storied history, and that villain turned out to be from the show's classic run.
Sutekh's potential can be glimpsed in "Pyramids of Mars." While most of the story is set in 1911, Elisabeth Sladen's Sarah Jane Smith points out that she is from 1980, suggesting that her continued existence is evidence that Sutekh fails to escape. Baker's Doctor takes the TARDIS to an apocalyptic 1980 to prove his companion wrong.
The Fourth Doctor uses part of the TARDIS to trap Sutekh, which could explain how the Osiron was able to hide inside the blue box.
