Doctor Who made history Saturday evening, with the Time Lord having his first ever same-sex kiss on screen. The episode, set in the British Regency period of 1813, saw Ncuti Gatwa as the Doctor team up with bounty hunter Rogue, played by Jonathan Groff.

The characters were initially mistrusting of each other, but had to team up to fight the shape-shifting Chuldurs. (SPOILER ALERT!)

The Daily Mail reports that fans delighted in what some called “the electric chemistry” between Dr Who star Ncuti Gatwa, and Jonathan Groff who plays bounty hunter Rogue.
