"73 Yards" is the fourth episode of the fourteenth series of the science fiction television series Doctor Who. The episode was first broadcast on BBC One in the United Kingdom on 25 May 2024, and was released by Disney+ in the United States on 24 May. It was written by Russell T Davies and directed by Dylan Holmes Williams.
In the episode, the Fifteenth Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) suddenly disappears off a cliffside in Wales after breaking a fairy circle. His companion, Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson), searches for him while being followed by a mysterious woman who is always 73 yards away from her. Described by Davies as folk horror, "73 Yards" was the first episode of the fourteenth series to be filmed, with shooting taking place in various locations around Wales in late 2022 and early 2023.
"73 Yards" was watched by 4.058 million viewers and received positive reviews from critics, with Gibson's performance being widely praised.
