Doctor Who Previewing Gatwa & Gibson's First Season; New Images

Viewers are getting a preview of Ncuti Gatwa & Millie Gibson's first Doctor Who season on Monday; new Christmas Special images were released.


That sound you hear is the hours & minutes ticking down until Monday's debut of Russell T. Davies's Ncuti Gatwa (Fifteenth Doctor) & Millie Gibson (Ruby Sunday)- starring Doctor Who Christmas Special, "The Church on Ruby Road." With it being a new day, of course, we would be getting another round of preview images. But – as we promised yesterday – we've also included some additional news & a preview image regarding Gatwa & Gibson's upcoming new series of adventures. Shortly after "Ruby Road" airs, viewers on BBC One & BBC iPlayer will be getting a look at what's to come – so we're assuming that means we'll be getting that preview dropping on YouTube and social media. To further drive home the point, we were even treated to an official image of the duo – but first, those Christmas Special images:

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:

And don't forget that composer Murray Gold & Davies teamed up for an original song for the special "The Goblin Song":

And here's a look at Gold, Segun Akinola, and the BBC National Orchestra performing the new theme – along with some words from RTD near the end:

Here's a look back at a video showcasing Gold & Akinola's new take on the theme:
