If The Doctor Is The Pantheon's God Of Life, This Line In Doctor Who Season 15 Makes Way More Sense

As Ncuti Gatwa's Fifteenth Doctor becomes entangled in a new conflict between gods and deities in Doctor Whoseason 15's "The Story & the Engine", a certain line from the latest episode may hint towards the Doctor's place in the current era's enigmatic Pantheon. Within season 15's fifth episode, a visit to Lagos, 2019 during his and Belinda's (Varada Sethu) complicated journey back to present-day Earth brings the Time Lord into contact with another individual who met the gods. Ariyon Bakare's mysterious Barber once served as a Storyteller who helped many gods gain recognition, only for them to turn on him.
