With Disney+ apparently "helping out" the BBC and Showrunner Russell T Davies by dropping the title and date for the Ncuti Gatwa (Fifteenth Doctor) and Millie Gibson (Ruby Sunday)-starring Christmas Special a bit earlier than expected, now would seem as good of a time as any for some early intel on next year's Christmas Special[...]

Doctor Who is set to come back to television in a big way with the 60th-anniversary specials' imminent arrival, and the BBC has launched the Whoniverse, a whole portal of nearly all the Doctor Who content on the BBC iPlayer with new content, including Tales of the Tardis, a series of specials where past Doctors[...]

Previous showrunner Chris Chibnall dropped the big surprise in the Doctor's origin story during "Flux," where he revealed that The Doctor was a child who showed up in Gallifrey from an unknown place and was immortal, introducing the ability to regenerate to Gallifreyan society that enabled the whole race to live forever long enough to[...]

With the BBC, Disney+, and Showrunner Russell T Davies's upcoming three-episode Doctor Who 60th-anniversary special event kicking off later this month (November 25th, to be precise), the word went out last month that November 4th (beginning at 9:45 am UK time) was going to be a very special day Because that's when the #DoctorDonnathon watch-along[...]

The serialized episodes will also be recut into a single feature-length story.

Well, for those folks, Davies has some bad news to break – and it came courtesy of his interview with SFX Magazine. Jodie Whittaker and Jo Martin – BBC Studios Apparently, no stranger to the rumblings out there that he was planning to "course correct" what Chibnall did (we loved the darker twist to the Doctor's story,[...]

Between the David Tennant & Catherine Tate-starring three-episode 60th anniversary event and the show's (almost) entire on-screen history heading to BBC's iPlayer on November 1st, it's only fitting that Showrunner Russell T Davies and the fans get to finally realize their dream of a "WHO-niverse." Because when all of that content hits iPlayer in about[...]

But Ghosts is a fully BBC UK production, filmed under the Equity Union, which already has much of what SAG-AFTRA is fighting for, so it's not a striking issue This also means it was one of the biggest panels of the show, a full house for the Main Stage, and after queueing outside in the[...]

It's not like we don't appreciate getting new looks at David Tennant's Fourteenth Doctor, but there are a lot more important players we need to meet before BBC, Disney+ & showrunner Russell T Davies' three-episode Doctor Who 60th Anniversary special event kicks off with "The Star Beast" on November 25th (followed by "Wild Blue Yonder" on[...]

They all stood for everything the Doctor fought against. "Doctor Who" still: BBC The Cybermen have changed their design more often than the other Doctor Who baddies, if only because bigger budgets came into play and the BBC designers got to update their looks Peter Capaldi, as an OG fan of the show, requested that the Cybermen[...]
