If there’s something Doctor Who is known for besides time travel adventures, sonic screwdrivers, and regeneration, it’s the vast array of unforgettable monsters that have graced its screens. With the excitement of a new season upon us, let's delve into the Doctor’s notorious rogues gallery to spotlight the most fearsome creatures our beloved Time Lord has encountered.
