It was written by Malorie Blackman and executive producer Chris Chibnall, and directed by Mark Tonderai, and was first broadcast on BBC One on 21 October 2018. Krasko is the main antagonist of the Doctor Who episode "Rosa". He was portrayed by Josh Bowman. Krasko is a mass murderer from the 79th century who killed at least 2,000 people before his arrest and conviction. Rosa: Directed by Mark Tonderai. With Jodie Whittaker, Bradley Walsh, Mandip Gill, Tosin Cole. Montgomery, Alabama, 1955. The Doctor and her friends find themselves in the Deep South of America. As they encounter a seamstress by the name of Rosa Parks, they begin to wonder whether someone is attempting to change history. Rosa was the third episode of series 11 of Doctor Who. Set just prior to Rosa Parks ' arrest for refusing to surrender her seat to a white passenger, this story dealt with heavy themes, and included blatant depictions of racism, mainly directed at the Doctor's companions Ryan and Yaz. Politically Incorrect Villain: Krasko is an unrepentant racist whose entire scheme is to prevent Rosa Parks from refusing to give up her seat on the bus, thereby triggering the Montgomery bus boycott and kick starting the civil rights movement. He believes that this will ensure the "inferior races" are in their "proper place" in his future. Rosa is played by Vinette Robinson, who manages to embody Parks with apparent ease. Though her accent is a little inconsistent at times, Robinson exudes both a quiet strength and a weariness The third episode of Doctor Who season 11, "Rosa," left a lot of questions unanswered about its main villain. This was a historical episode unlike anything we've ever seen before in Doctor Who, a character piece that also acted as a social commentary on the issue of racism and prejudice. Season 11's first historical episode continues the tradition, landing the Doctor and friends smack in the middle of 1955 Alabama, with renowned civil rights icon Rosa Parks. Montgomery, Alabama. 1955. The Doctor (Jodie Whittaker) and her friends find themselves in the Deep South of America. As they encounter a seamstress by the name of Rosa Parks (Vinette Robinson), they begin to wonder whether someone is attempting to change history. I adored this episode. Arriving days before a pivotal moment in the Civil Rights movement, the Doctor and her companions discover that another time-traveler is trying to block Rosa Parks (Vinette Robinson) from The plot of the episode can be condensed to: doctor screws up landing the tardis again but this time they go exploring , they meet racists , get slapped by the racists , and get saved by a not racist who is also rosa parks , then they stalk her , get kicked out of a restaurant by racists , meet a space racist who wants everyone to be racist so He specifically targeted Rosa Parks, whose brave actions kick-started the civil rights movement on Earth.Krasko was a mass-murderer from the future, claiming to have killed around 2000 people. When he was released from the space prison, Stormcage, he used a vortex manipulator to travel to Earth, specifically the year 1955, to change the past. Doctor Who series 11’s third episode introduces a new villain to the series called Krasko, a murderer and time traveller who tries his best to stop Rosa Parks’ 1955 bus protest as part of a The emphasis of the bus scene very much feels like we are supposed to be feeling more sad for Graham becoming a “part of history” than we are for Rosa Parks, which on one hand makes sense as Graham is more of a character but on the other hand Rosa Parks is a real person and I think this episode did this whole topic a disservice. Calling the episode Rosa is a neat nod to Billie Piper’s 2005 debut Rose, and there’s a measured central performance from Vinette Robinson as Rosa Parks, buttoned-up, stoical, kind, principled Rosa Parks, in the future, becomes a symbol for humans to stand up against oppression and Krasko wants to stop that from happening. He never specifies anything else than "stopping your kind from rising above their station" or something like that. "Your kind" could easily mean "humans" in a show like Doctor Who. With the announcement that the Thirteenth Doctor would be crossing paths with Rosa Parks in the segregated 1955 Montgomery, Alabama with science fiction kept to a minimum, however, there was naturally consternation about just how such a prominent figure from recent history who quite literally helped to change the trajectory of an entire country I hated how the Doctor wouldn't stop gushing about how great Rosa Parks was when Rosa herself was busy being more of an object than a character. That speech at the end wasn't very impressive, and showing off Rosa has a comet named after her doesn't have the same impact as Agatha Christie's books still being published in the year 5billion. A powerful Doctor Who ensures Rosa Parks is ” and Bill Potts in “Thin Ice”—but this is the first episode of NuWho that presents racism itself as its central villain. “Rosa” offers Vinette Robinson, who plays Rosa Parks, should be well-known to fans of British TV in general and Doctor Who in particular. She played Sgt. Sally Donovan in four episodes of Sherlock, and Christopher Eccleston’s daughter-in-law Nicola in the acclaimed autism drama The A Word.
