Doctor Who: The Ark in Space

The story focuses on a group of travelers and does not include any characters with non-binary gender identities or same-sex romantic relationships.

Leela challenges traditional gender roles by being a skilled fighter and warrior, while the Doctor holds intellectual authority. Her role as a capable warrior helps break down the stereotype of submissive women.

The cast is mainly composed of white British actors, reflecting the production's time period. The story does not feature a diverse range of ethnicities or use actors from different backgrounds.

The setting serves as a critique of institutions in a secular, high-stakes environment. It does not explicitly address anti-Western themes, focusing instead on survival horror scenarios.

The story explores the loss of bodily control through biological infection but does not center on neurological differences or permanent disabilities as key plot points.
