Davies's Ncuti Gatwa and Varada Sethu-starring Doctor Who, we've got some big news to pass along about what's going down after the final notes are sung on "The Interstellar Song Contest." Set for Saturday, May 31st, the extra-special-length season finale episode "The Reality War" will premiere simultaneously on BBC One, BBC iPlayer, Disney+, and in over 450 cinemas across the UK & Ireland. "The Doctor is doomed, Belinda is lost, Ruby is trapped, UNIT is powerless, the Unholy Trinity rule supreme, and the Underverse is rising. And now we can all experience this devastating climax together, all at the same time, with a unique worldwide premiere. I can promise shocks, scares, and revelations off the scale. Come and have fun!" Davies shared when the news was announced.
