The Valeyard is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating characters in all of Doctor Who canon, and yet he has only been seen in one TV serial.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT There was one storyline from the end of the Sixth Doctor's era in Doctor Who that was so interesting that even now, it still deserves an answer. The Sixth Doctor's time in the franchise came to an end with the "Trial of a Time Lord," a 14-episode arc. These chapters introduced a new problem for the Doctor in the form of the Valeyard, a concept that has not been brought back by later installments.

His introduction in the 23rd season’s serial “The Trial of a Time Lord,” centered around the Doctor facing alleged justice for crimes of off-world interference and the breaking of Time Lord laws.
Steven Moffat Tried To Retcon The Valeyard The Matt Smith and Peter Capaldi eras of Doctor Who lasted between 2010 and 2017, during which time showrunner Steven Moffat sneakily retconned the Valeyard. As Smith portrayed the eleventh incarnation of the Doctor and Capaldi the twelfth, it meant that Moffat’s era was under some pressure to deliver answers on the Valeyard, if not then explicitly reintroduce the character, as audiences knew he was one of the Doctor’s incarnations beyond his twelfth.
The Valeyard Mystery Has Become Distracting In Doctor Who By this point in Doctor Who’s lengthy run, the Valeyard has begun to loom over each new season, especially as the revival era of the show continues to subvert fan expectations when it comes to the Doctor and their regenerations . This is especially true for hardcore Whovians and those that grew up with the classic series, both of whom have waited a long time for answers about the Valeyard.
