Doctor Who Ep. 1 "Space Babies" Clip: So About That "Butterfly Effect"

Ruby gets an "interactive" lesson in how The Butterfly Effect works in this clip from BBC & Disney+'s Doctor Who S01E01: "Space Babies."

By this point next week, a whole lot of fans will have had a chance to check out the first two episodes of Showrunner Russell T. Davies and series stars Ncuti Gatwa (Fifteenth Doctor) & Millie Gibson's (Ruby Sunday) first season of BBC & Disney+'s Doctor Who. That means today is as good of a day as any for a sneak preview of the season-opener, "Space Babies" (written by Davies and directed by Julie Anne Robinson) – one that's an extended look from the clop that Gatwa & Gibson brought with that to ABC's Good Morning America this week. In the clip, the Doctor offers Ruby a quick rundown of the TARDIS and what she does – before Ruby gets an "interactive" lesson in how "The Butterfly Effect" works… one that the Doctor could end up paying for.

Now, here's that sneak preview of "Space Babies" that we've been talking about – followed by what else we know about the upcoming new series of Doctor Who adventures on Disney+, BBC iPlayer & BBC One:
