The Doctor's rules

The Doctor's rules were a series of guidelines created by the Doctor for their companions. The Thirteenth Doctor admitted that her rules changed all the time, and noted that she found it especially important to lay down the rules with new companions. (TV: The Battle of Ranskoor Av Kolos)
