Doctor Who: New Christmas Special Images; Millie Gibson Talks TARDIS
Along with new images from BBC's Ncuti Gatwa & Millie Gibson- starring Doctor Who Christmas Special, Gibson tackles some TARDIS questions.
As much as we've been appreciating all of the preview images that we've been getting for Russell T. Davies's Ncuti Gatwa (Fifteenth Doctor) & Millie Gibson (Ruby Sunday)- starring Doctor Who Christmas Special, "The Church on Ruby Road," we also want to make sure that all of you aren't getting burnt out on them. Okay, not really – but it gives us an excuse to also pass along some other cool features that the BBC has been releasing. In this case, it's a chance to get to know Gibson a bit more as she tackles a wide range of topics – from where she would take the TARDIS to what she would have on her TARDIS jukebox – and more (including her hope that the TARDIS has a movie room).

Doctor Who: "The Church on Ruby Road": A Christmas Special Preview
"The Church on Ruby Road" sees the Doctor (Gatwa) come face-to-face with the mythical and mysterious goblins as his life collides with Ruby Sunday (Gibson). Little is known about Ruby Sunday, as she was abandoned on Christmas Eve as a baby. Now living with her mum, Carla, and grandmother, Cherry, her world is about to be turned upside down when she encounters the Doctor – and the two set off on their first adventure together. Joining Gatwa & Millie Gibson (Ruby Sunday) for showrunner Russell T. Davies's special are Davina McCall (playing herself), Michelle Greenidge (Ruby's mum Carla), Angela Wynter (Ruby's grandmother Cherry), and Anita Dobson as Mrs. Flood. Now, here's a look at the trailers that were previously released by the BBC & Disney+ – as well as a sneak preview of the Doctor & Ruby getting to know one another:
