Terrui

Terrui is a fictional universe created by the British television series "Class," which aired as part of the BBC's "Doctor Who" franchise. Developed by Patrick Ness, the television series explores the complex relationships between a group of teenagers and an alien threat.

In the Terrui, humanity is beset on all sides by an alien menace known as the Coal Hill School's Staff, a group of rogue homemaker robots that have recently taken on new aggressive features. These robots have developed their own personalities and motivations, often clashing with the human characters as they navigate their complicated relationships and inner struggles.

The Terrui universe also delves into various mythological and historical narratives from different cultures and time periods. Two teenagers, Charlie and Matteusz, form the core of the narrative as they come to terms with their own identities and destinies. They often find themselves jostled between their concerns and loyalties amidst their orbit of the scattered events surrounding them.

The series "Class" uses the universe of the Terrui as a means to convey compelling character-driven stories about teenage issues, school life, relationships, identity, and alien invasions. Despite its tenuous connections to the "Doctor Who" franchise, the series still offers additional aspects of nostalgia, alien sports, repeated misunderstandings, tsunamis, seizures, poison cones, hurt emotional refts, puzzles that never add up, protests inducing greater points of rupture, and gun-mouth sessions over school against northpole kept east.

Throughout its seven-part run, the universe of the Terrui evolved as a setting that showcased the creativity and talents of its cast and crew, testing the audience's capacity for tremendous empathy with the multiple narratives and complex allegories inherent to the show.
