Doctor Who: BBC & BBCA Release New "Legend of the Sea Devils" Images

Before Russell T. Davies returns to take over as showrunner (with a new Doctor along for the run), The Doctor (Jodie Whittaker), Yaz (Mandip Gill), and Dan (John Bishop) still need to confront the "Legend of the Sea Devils" in the second of Whittaker & showrunner Chris Chibnall's final three episodes before ending their run (with the final special set for later this year). And now that we've hit the less-than-a-week mark, what better time than now to share some additional looks at the special from BBC and BBC America (with the latter part of the global broadcast on Sunday, April 17, beginning at 2:10 pm ET, with an additional airing later that evening)? Before we get to some looks from the actual adventure itself, we have the second of what we're assuming will be at least three character profile key art pieces- this one focusing on Yaz:

Written by showrunner Chris Chibnall and Ella Road directed by Haolu Wang., and starring Arthur Lee stars as Ji-Hun & Marlowe Chan-Reeves stars as Ying Ki, here's a look at the official trailer for "Legend of the Sea Devils":

"Legend of the Sea Devils": In a swashbuckling special adventure, the Doctor (Jodie Whittaker), Yaz (Mandip Gill) and Dan (John Bishop) come face to fin with one of the Doctor's oldest adversaries: the Sea Devils. Why has legendary pirate queen Madam Ching come searching for a lost treasure? What terrifying forces lurk beneath the oceans of the nineteenth century? And did Yaz really have to dress Dan up as a pirate?

And as for those rumors of Hugh Grant (Four Wedding and a Funeral, Notting Hill) taking over as The Doctor after Whittaker (as the UK's Mirror and The Guardian reported), the actor himself took to Twitter to set the record straight. "Nothing against Dr W but I'm not," Grant wrote while retweeting The Guardian report. "No idea where the story came from." Here's a look at Grant shattering some folks' dreams (and making some writers look a little silly):
