Thraham

Thraham is the het ship between The Thirteenth Doctor and Graham O'Brien from the Doctor Who fandom.

Moments
THE WOMAN WHO FELL TO EARTH

Shortly after Grace O'Brien's death, The Doctor is shown listening to Graham's eulogy at her funeral, and later watches over his grandson Ryan Sinclair as he struggles with riding a bike.

ROSA

The Doctor and Graham pose as a married couple to distract a police officer, who is looking for Yaz and Ryan. Graham identifies himself as 'Steve Jobs', The Doctors calls him 'darling'. As the officer leaves, Graham puts his hand on The Doctor's shoulder. The Doctor responds to this rather awkwardly.

THE BATTLE OF RANSCOR AV KOLOS

After Graham admits to The Doctor that he was 'too weak' to kill T'hmSha in cold bood, The Doctor tells him he is the strongest person she knows

SPYFALL PART ONE

The Doctor makes ice tea for both Graham and O (aka The Master) while they are hanging out at O's cabin in the Australian bush. Graham shows some interest in The Doctor's past when O offers a peek at the files he's compiled on the time lord over the years.

SPYFALL PART TWO

When trying to assure her companions that they're not going to die on the exploding plane, The Doctor instructs them not to panic, especially Graham, indicating she knows him well enough to anticipate what he's thinking

ORPHAN 55

Graham remarks that he forgot to put on his speedo swimwear when the TARDIS crew are about to be transported to a holiday resort. The Doctor's face is one of somewhat aroused disgust when he was only joking and that he's already got them on.

FUGITIVE OF THE JUDOON

As Yaz and Ryan give The Doctor an inspirational speech, Graham rounds it off by saying they are all family. Having been traumatised by recent events involving a past life she never knew about, these words of comfort cheer The Doctor up and she gives Graham a loving look and a smile.

CAN YOU HEAR ME?

Graham opens up to The Doctor about anxieties he faces over his cancer potentially returning. The Doctor listens to him but feels she is too socially awkward to give him the kind of reassurances he expects...she does however tell him she'll think of what to say within sixty or so seconds that can be helpful. Graham chuckles, quipping that he was glad to have the chat with her anyway.

THE TIMELESS CHILDREN

After The Doctor uses her mind to break free of the Matrix on Gallifrey, the effort temporarily knocks her unconscious. When the rest of the TARDIS crew find her, her eyes open and focus on Graham, only then does The Doctor permit herself an angelic and loving smile.

Later, when announcing her intention to sacrifice herself 'in a heartbeat' to save the universe, she glances towards Graham and finishes with '...for you'

REVOLUTION OF THE DALEKS

When his grandson Ryan makes the decision to leave TARDIS life behind, Graham opts to remain with him. He thanks The Doctor for an incredible experience and the two embrace each other for the first and last time.

MISTRESS OF CHAOS (DWM Comic Strip)

The Doctor, visibly shaken and frightened by the identity of her latest foe, finds solace in Graham's arms. The concluding chapter of the strip adventure sees The Doctor almost sacrifice herself to defeat The Herald and The Sanity (two unhinged halves of herself) in the dimension known as The Castastrophea, and it describes Graham's fears for her safety as a "great weight pressing against his heart", when The Doctor and Graham choose to depart The Catastrophea, they do so whilst holding hands.

Fanon
Fans of the pairing believe they are a good fit because both of them have lost wives in their lifetimes. Graham lost Grace during an adventure, and The Doctor lost his/her wife River Song during another adventure with a past incarnation of herself. The potential of the two bonding romantically over the losses they've suffered in their lifetimes has is one plausible option for the pairing.

Fans also perceive The Doctor's 'social awkwardness' towards Graham in the episode 'Can You Hear Me? ' is her showing fear that Graham's illness could resurface. The Doctor is known to hate endings, and that lives with all of her companions are limited.

Although Thraham is not a widely popular 'ship, it is starting to become noticeable due to having some moments between the two featured in the official Doctor Who Magazine comic strip.
